Ukraine - April 12, 2021
Commanded by Biden, NATO returns to Ukraine
The hitman Putin, from the Minsk pact with imperialism in 2014, has already defeated the Donbass miners...
Now, from Kiev, the US imperalists
go for everything
For the last few days, the Ukrainian question is back in the center of the world situation. Once more, the military tension has intensified, with movements of both Russian and Kiev's troops.
Today Ukraine is an inter-imperialist disputed territory in the struggle to gain control of Russian raw materials, mainly the huge gas reserve. This dispute has intensified and Ukraine plays a key role in it. Germany is completing the construction of NordStream 2, which from the cities of Viborg and Ust Luga in Russia, goes up to Greifswald (Germany) and the gas it brings will be distributed throughout Europe, going only through the Baltic Sea, without paying fees to any nation to cross through their territories. With this gas pipeline, practically completed, Germany plunders Russian gas directly for itself.
But US imperialism does not plan to stand idly by.
Biden is the baron of the world's largest hydrocarbon companies. Already with the Minsk Pact, with which imperialism and Putin defeated the revolution and split the nation, the control of the Ukrainian gas pipeline that transports Russian gas to Europe had fallen in their hands.
Today, the response of US imperialism to the German Nord Stream 2 is breaking-up Minsk pact, while it advances to stay with all of Ukraine, supported by the fascist government of Kiev. Their plan is to reconstitute NATO, with which they intend to subordinate Germany, as well as other imperialist powers, both politically and militarily. In the meantime, they are preparing for new counterrevolutionary offensives worldwide, and against Russia in particular, by stationing NATO troops on its border with Ukraine.
Before the successive blows of the crisis and the world crash, the inter-imperialist disputes between the United States and the Franco-German axis of Maastricht has deepened, while the oppressed nations are the ones who suffer invasions, plans of misery and plunder.
The source of raw materials from the "Great" Russia and the enormous Chinese domestic market is what the imperialist gangs are aiming to, which, from Tokyo to London, from Wall Street to Frankfurt, are already trying to snatch from each other. With Trump, it was the trade war; now with Biden, with political pacts, the US seeks to reconstitute the institutions of dominance at the international level, such as the UN and fundamentally NATO, that is, the North Atlantic Armed Forces under US military command.
Thus, Biden, with NATO boots, returns to Ukraine. After Putin has done their dirty work defeating the Ukrainian revolution, it is time for him to hand back over the Crimean Peninsula and the control of the Donbass in eastern Ukraine. The cards have been shown: the entire Ukraine belongs to the US and NATO. Thus, US imperialism remains at Russia's doorstep, threatening all of their trade agreements with Europe. From Kiev, imperialism is strategically located, since its goal is Moscow. Ultimately, Ukraine today is a territory of inter-imperialist dispute for the control of Russian gas, essential for Maastricht's Europe, but decisive for Wall Street and Biden's great gas barons and their families.
The Ukrainian revolution was, in 2014, a true capital of the revolution, a hinge revolution that threatened to spread towards Europe to the West and towards Russia to the East. This is why, imperialism concentrated its forces there to defeat it -as it did in Syria- and established, together with Putin, the Minsk counterrevolutionary Pact. With this pact they have split the nation and separated the Donbass working class from their siblings in Western Ukrainian, to prevent the revolution from succeeding in Kiev. Today, with the defeat imposed on the revolution, with NATO controlling the entire territory, Ukraine is totally subjected to imperialism as a true protectorate. The hitman Putin has already played his role in Ukraine and imperialism throws him back to Russia's borders.
As we said in 2014, “the national question and the sentiment that nests against the oppression of decades and centuries of the Ukrainian people by the tsars, Stalinism and now imperialism, can only be resolved -as the October revolution proved it- with an independent Soviet Ukraine, federated of its own free will in the Socialist United States of Europe. For this, it will be necessary to conquer a new victorious socialist revolution in Ukraine and in all the countries of the former USSR”. Ukraine will be a united, free, independent and Soviet republic and a bastion of the European and world revolution... or it will be like today, a colony protected by imperialism, torn apart and plundered by the IMF, the EU and Putin's White Russia!
