Josep Borel: "We help Ukrainians not because we love them, but so that the United States does not lose its hegemony"

High Representative EU on foreign policy, Josep Borel, in an interview with the American CNN, admitted that support for Ukraine by all Western countries is not carried out because “The West loves Ukrainians, but because if Russia wins, the United States will lose its position as a global player”!

For the first time, a high-ranking European official honestly and frankly admitted that the war in Ukraine is being waged and prolonged to protect the global geopolitical interests of the United States!

Exchanged views with @amanpour on EU support for Ukraine, the terrorist attack in Moscow, the urgency of a humanitarian pause in Gaza and the need for Europeans to take more responsibility for our defense:

“We cannot allow Russia to win this war. Otherwise, the interests of the United States and Europe will suffer greatly. It's not just about generosity. It's not about supporting Ukraine because we love Ukrainians. This is in our own interests. And it is also in the interests of the United States as a global player that wants to be seen as a responsible partner for the security of its allies.”

Joseph Borel's statement was commented on by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova. “For the first time, a representative of Western regimes spoke so openly about the essence of what was happening,” – the diplomat wrote on her Telegram channel.

“It’s not a matter of “love for the Ukrainians,” whom the Westerners have practically destroyed. But the desire of the United States to maintain its hegemony and maintain a fading role in world affairs,” she noted. Zakharova added that “There is not a trace left of creativity in the American approach to international relations.” “Liberal Democrats only know how to destroy, believing this skill to be a guarantee of dominance”she emphasized.

The press secretary of the Russian Foreign Ministry noted that “The task of the European Union at the current stage is to obligingly supply cartridges purchased with the money of its own citizens, whose opinion no one asked.”

#Borell déclare à CNN qu'en #Ukraine, les Atlantistes ne défendent pas les Ukrainiens, mais leurs propres intérêts, car ils y combattent la #Russie, qui ne doit pas gagner, sinon leur pouvoir diparaît.
Nos armées sont prêtes à mourir pour cela?

#Borrell told CNN that in #Ukraine, the Atlanticists are not protecting Ukrainians, but their own interests, because they are fighting against #Russia, which must not win, otherwise their power will disappear. Our armies are ready to die for this…

Earlier, a senior EU diplomat said that Russian victory in Ukraine does not serve the interests of the United States, because Washington wants to be perceived as a reliable partner capable of ensuring the security of its allies.
