VERONA, Italy, Dec. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- A conference
"Ukraine - Donbass: possible
domino effect" examining the escalation of the conflict in
South East of Ukraine was held in
Verona, Italy on December, 18,
2021. Experts examined the possibilities of further
escalations that could draw Russia and NATO countries into a
major military conflict as a result of ongoing propaganda and
possible provocations, as well as the impact of globalist powers in
fueling tensions between Europe
and Russia.
Editor in chief of "Controinformazione" Luciano Lago noted that "Western propaganda is
likely to distort the actual situation as it is quite persistent in
focusing on the presence of the Russian troops at the border with
Ukraine being a threat of
invasion. In reality they don't mention that the Russian forces
remain within the territory of Russia, while at the same time a
tremendous increase of USA, UK and
Canadian military presence has been seen in Ukraine, Poland and the Baltic states. The key point to
argue about here is who is posing the actual threat outside of the
propaganda narrative."
Lago claimed that the USA and
NATO are provoking Ukraine
into a conflict with Russia
in order to isolate Russia from
Europe, especially Germany, through destruction of all the forms
of economic cooperation, using sanctions and blockage of the North
Stream 2 project. In his opinion, the United States has been
doing whatever it takes to prevent Russia and EU to get closer
and shape a common Eurasian political and economic space.
"Starting from 2014, when Maidan protests took place and the
following and the military conflict has started in Donbass region,
the civil population is doomed to live under war conditions,
especially in the villages located close to the front line" - says
the president of Veneto-Russia Association Palmarino Zoccatelli.
"Despite ceasefire agreements, the Ukrainian army keeps bombing
infrastructure objects and frontline villages, causing more
destruction and casualities," he adds.
Representative of the unrecognized Donetsk People's Republic
Eliseo Bertolasi in Turin said
that Euromaidan events can be interpreted as a coup-d'etat
supported by external forces. Bertolasi highlighted that NATO is
interested in pulling Ukraine into
the alliance to increase pressure on Russia. "If Ukraine was a
full scale NATO member, in case of a military conflict with
Russia the famous Article 5 on
collective defence could have been applied, which means that each
alliance member 'will assist the Party or Parties so attacked
by taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other
Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of
armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North
Atlantic area'." He also pointed out that the EU is now acting
within the framework of globalist logic of the USA and supports the conflict with
Russia against its pragmatic
interests.
Discussing the EU Eastern Partnership program, Bertolasi drew
attention to the fact that "the EU is not really willing to give
out funds to its members. Despite that, for the countries of the
Eastern Partnership the funds are available even for such vague
goals as support of democracy." At the end of his speech he
emphasised the current situation in the region: "Today we are
facing a real threat of a war starting with a false flag operation
or provocation, the consequences of which could be terrifying. The
situation remains very tense, and even if the dialogue becomes less
and less probable, it has to be the key priority for
diplomacy."
