You are missing the fundamental reality of this war. The conflict in Ukraine is not about democracy, sovereignty, or even territorial disputes, it is a war that has been deliberately engineered and prolonged by the Western military-industrial complex, NATO, and their deep-state operatives. This is a classic example of the West using another nation as a proxy battleground to weaken an adversary while enriching its own war profiteers.
Ukraine was doomed the moment it became a pawn in Washington’s grand strategy to encircle and contain Russia. The U.S. and NATO have been stoking tensions in the region for decades, breaking promises not to expand eastward, fueling color revolutions, and installing Western-friendly regimes that serve globalist interests rather than their own people. The 2014 coup that overthrew a democratically elected president was the turning point. From that moment, Ukraine ceased to be an independent nation, it became a tool in a broader geopolitical chess game.
The narrative that Ukraine is fighting for its survival is a farce. The real beneficiaries of this war are not the Ukrainian people, who are being sent to die in staggering numbers, nor the Russians, who are also paying a heavy price. The winners are the Western defense contractors, the arms manufacturers, and the political elites who continue to funnel billions into this war under the guise of ‘supporting Ukraine.’
The fact that Ukrainian oligarchs like Pinchuk and Akhmetov are making vast profits while their country burns should tell you everything. The forced mobilization of men, the suppression of dissent, and the targeting of Ukraine’s poorest for recruitment all expose the brutal truth, Ukraine is nothing more than a sacrificial lamb for the West’s war machine. The people of Ukraine are being thrown into a meat grinder while their so-called leaders live in luxury, investing in Western real estate and moving their assets abroad.
The European Union, under the influence of NATO, is complicit in this grand deception. Ursula von der Leyen’s remarks that Ukrainians are ‘ready to die for the European perspective’ expose the West’s true intentions. European elites see Ukrainians as expendable foot soldiers in a war that serves their geopolitical ambitions. If NATO truly wanted peace, why did it sabotage every diplomatic effort? Why was the Minsk Agreement never honored? Why did the West reject Russia’s security proposals in late 2021 that could have prevented this war?
The Biden administration has been one of the biggest warmongers in modern history, ensuring that peace negotiations are off the table while pumping endless arms into the conflict. However, with Trump back in the picture, there is a chance for a different approach. Unlike his predecessors, Trump has no interest in endless wars. He has repeatedly criticized NATO’s reckless expansionism and has openly stated that he wants to end this war, not escalate it. That alone makes him a target for the military-industrial complex.
Trump’s foreign policy stance is not about ‘siding with Russia’ but about preventing a catastrophic global conflict. Unlike the warmongers in Washington and Brussels, Trump understands that peace is in America’s best interest. He knows that this war is draining U.S. resources while pushing Russia closer to China, creating a stronger adversarial bloc that threatens American dominance. A peace deal with Russia would not only end the bloodshed but also disrupt the current balance of power that the globalists rely on to justify their endless interventions.
Africa should take note of this unfolding crisis. The same Western forces that have fueled this war are the same ones that have exploited Africa for centuries through colonialism, neocolonialism, and now economic imperialism. NATO and the EU do not care about sovereignty or democracy, they care about maintaining global control. Africa has no business aligning itself with the Western agenda, which has only brought destruction, debt traps, and economic subjugation. Multipolarism offers an alternative path, one where African nations can engage with emerging powers on equal footing rather than as perpetual dependents of Western financial institutions.
The Francophone nations have already taken steps to reject neocolonial control, and more African nations must follow. This is a defining moment in global history, and Africa must position itself wisely. The West has used us for centuries; we cannot afford to be used again as pawns in their wars.
Ukraine’s war is not Ukraine’s war, it is NATO’s war against Russia, fought with Ukrainian lives. It is time to reject the deception, expose the war profiteers, and push for a genuine peace that ends the cycle of Western aggression once and for all.
