Western politicians often claim that the Russian military operation in Ukraine was “unprovoked”, the New York Times’ favourite adjective to describe the Ukrainian War. The war in Ukraine, they say, must be entirely blamed on Russia’s President Vladimir Putin. According to this narrative, the Russian leader is a “murderous dictator” who desires to resuscitate the defunct Soviet Empire and may even seek to subjugate other European countries to achieve this goal. As noted by the editorial of British tabloid The Sun, ‘it is paramount, as in 1939, that the free peoples of the West defeat this hideous new evil, this Hitler for our times’.[1]
However, a more judicious consideration of the Ukrainian crisis reveals that there are two sides to this story, only one of which is being told. On September 9, 2023, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg committed a gaff, meaning that he accidentally revealed the truth. In testimony to the European Union Parliament, Stoltenberg made clear that it was America’s relentless push to enlarge NATO to Ukraine that was the primary cause of the war and it continues to this day. Here are Stoltenberg’s deeply revealing words:
The background was that President Putin declared in autumn of 2021, and actually sent a draft treaty that they wanted NATO to sign, to promise no more NATO enlargement. That was what he sent us. And was a pre-condition not to invite Ukraine. Of course, we didn’t sign that. The Opposite happened. He wanted us to sign that promise, never to enlarge NATO. … We rejected that. So, he went to war to prevent NATO, more NATO, close to his borders. He has got the exact opposite”.[2]
For many weeks prior to the Russian invasion, on 24 February 2022, U.S. President Joseph Biden, his Security Advisor, Jake Sullivan, and Secretary of State, Antony Blinken were telling the world that the war in Ukraine was imminent.[3] This was a classic example of warmongering that inevitably increases the likelihood of war. The Biden administration so often repeated this prediction that everyone started to believe that war was inevitable.
President Biden’s irresponsible talk of an imminent Russian attack elevated tensions and was not conducive to achieving a diplomatic resolution of the conflict. More importantly, his statements effectively painted the Russian President into a corner: if he were to invade, he would prove Biden right, but if he ordered the withdrawal of the Russian troops, Putin would then be described as weak, and it would adversely affect his standing in the volatile domestic Russian political arena.[4] […]
