It is a fact that many in Norway probably do not know enough or are not interested in the phenomenon of NATO. Nor do we know enough about the West and the United States' many provocations against Russia. While tensions in Ukraine and Europe is at the breaking point, someone must come to their senses and talk dialogue and relaxation. Intense meetings between Russia, USA, NATO and the OSCE (Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe) are moving forward, but make progress to no. Therefore, from a disarmament, relaxation, environmental and economic perspective, it is important to constantly drive information and opposition to militarism forward. When one hears the Secretary General of NATO, NATO politicians and others constantly claim that NATO is peace-building and is important for so-called stability in the world, well, then one should stop and ask some important things:
Who wants me to believe this? What are the interests behind?
Those who want this are a must military-industrial complex where major economic interests are central in merging with governments. Why? Because the capitalist Western medical world wants world hegemony intact. Large imperialist powers compete for this hegemony. Therefore vert Russia no and otherwise China highlighted as the main threat. This is how an enemy image is maintained and strengthened where, for example, China does not have to host the number 1 power in the world, but needs to be kept down. Diverre, our major media are involved in this game and are involved in obscuring or glorifying, as when one is often heard and read about NATO membership and "our" trong to defend ourselves against "the others". As it is in high Russia at the moment.
NATO
This glorification of NATO among other Norwegian editorial boards is very typical of the western media. Never good enough critical questions, always this "cuddle talk", or this unrest over "our enemies", no challenging questions to NATO Secretary General or politicians. It is frustrating to witness this journalistic "shadow boxing". What about this: "It's a rotten old secret. But it is also one of the most formidable denials of the Atlantic Alliance (NATO): Nuclear bombis stored – a serious violation of international law – in Italy, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Turkey. " Arms Control Association (USA) estimates that the USA has about 100 nuclear weapons deployed in Europe. Why does the Norwegian media not cover such?
Does the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Norwegian government have information that Russia has deployed nuclear weapons outside Europe's own borders? Do you think that the United States has not deployed nuclear weapons outside its own borders in Europe? How and in what forums will the government contribute to the proposal that the USA and Russia refrain from deploying nuclear weapons outside their own borders should lead to nuclear disarmament and detente? What does the government think about the proposal that Russia and the United States should refrain from major military exercises near each other's borders? These are questions many people want answered.
Minister of Foreign Affairs Anniken Huitfeldt answered ma so on Raudt his questions in January: "We have no information that Russia has deployed nuclear weapons outside its own borders in Europe. However, short-range nuclear weapons have been deployed in the European part of Russia, close to several NATO countries. The United States has deployed nuclear weapons in Europe as part of NATO's Nuclear Sharing scheme. The scheme is part of the alliance's nuclear deterrent, and is based on weapons under US control, as well as aircraft and necessary support functions from some European allies. The scheme dates back to before the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) was negotiated, and is in full compliance with the agreement. "
What are the consequences of US and NATO expansion eastwards in Europe?
What the Foreign Minister (naturally enough) does not get into is the massive participation NATO has had for many years and is now stepping up in countries in Central and Eastern Europe: The three Baltic countries have a lot of NATO presence: NATO rejects Russia's demand that the alliance must withdraw its forces and weapons system from Romania and Bulgaria (ntb.no); Slovakia gets new defense agreement with US, in NATO country Albania the US adds a new regional base; Ukraine currently receives a lot of military equipment from the United States, etc. In addition, there are proposals for new sanctions against Russia. Maybe the storm has started in earnest?
Territorial integrity
Not enough with this. While the new government in Germany lasted until the autumn of 2021, NATO truga its warlike Secretary General, Jens Stoltenberg, by moving nuclear weapons east of Germany if the new government did not abide by NATO's nuclear agreement on American nuclear weapons on German soil after 2025. This is how a real war hawk speaks!
And this writes the former US Ambassador to Czechoslovakia and the Soviet Union, Jack F. matlock i Klassekampen January 15:«The Russians will probably claim that the United States is only concerned with territorial integrity when it serves its own interests. But US authorities are known to ignore it when it suits them, such as when they, along with their NATO allies, violated Serbia's territorial integrity by creating and then recognizing an independent Kosovo. "
The Washington-based organization National Security Archive has published a large number of documents showing that Soviet Union in 1990, there were full, verbal guarantees that NATO would not expand "an inch to the east", writes Ola Tunander, Professor Emeritus at the Department of Peace Research (Prio) in Klassekampen 20 January. He further writes that: "Many have subsequently denied that the Soviet Union was given any guarantees at all and claimed that these should be somewhat controversial. The enlargement of NATO should thus be legitimate, which now forms the basis for Secretary – General Stoltenberg's policy towards Russia. But the documents from this time show that all the Western leaders gave Moscow such guarantees. " The last president of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev, has many times pronounced frustration over the West's lies in this.
And Ukraine today believes that the West is spreading unnecessary panic. The country's deputy defense minister, Hanna Maliar, says the United States believes Russia is ready to attack: "This information is not true. Such 'news' is psychological warfare. The purpose is to spread panic and fear in our society. " President Zelenskyi is now in conflict with President Biden (Class Struggle, Jan. 31).
The so-called "New NATO" will be more globally correct. Who will get more involved in strategies against Russia and China. It must be the travel cabinet that we must believe in "must" protect the world's "democracy" against the others. Against Russia, against China. Whenever there is a NATO summit in Brussels, a couple of thousand policemen will block the entire city to protect a militaristic elite. An elite that makes the world more insecure, and maybe one day they will provoke war as well. Stop this madness before it's too late!
