Over 30 years, NATO absorbed countries across Eastern Europe, moving ever closer to Russia’s borders, while rampaging across the Middle East and Central Asia, attacking countries including Iraq, Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria.
Now, it is now deploying troops directly on Russia’s borders in Poland, the Baltic republics and potentially in Ukraine.
Even as Peskov stresses that the Kremlin is looking for a negotiated settlement, the NATO powers are recklessly pressing ahead, risking nuclear war.
In Europe, official circles are clearly calculating about the increased likelihood of nuclear conflict, which could rapidly destroy any or all European countries.
Professor Benoît Pelopidas, a nuclear weapons expert - “France’s military and political elites bet on nuclear deterrence,”.
“Already in the 1950s, a National Civil Protection Service report indicated that 15 thermonuclear bombs would be enough to destroy France.”
Workers across Europe and around the world must be warned: As the NATO powers press ahead with military escalation in Europe, nuclear war is now a clear and present danger.
Appeals to reason on the part of the NATO ruling classes are falling and will fall on deaf ears.
The only way to avert a catastrophic conflict is to politically alert the international working class of the mounting danger of world war and mobilize it in a powerful, socialist anti-war movement.
