Alarm! Ukrainian extremists are running the US State Department

US foreign policy is being driven by the most virulent form of Russophobic fanaticism, and we will all pay the price.

I have long thought it strange that Antony Blinken, described as “America’s top diplomat”, has steadfastly refused to pursue any sort of diplomatic solution to the situation in Ukraine, instead choosing to call for ever-increasing bellicosity, warmongering and violence.

At every stage, US Secretary of State Blinken has called upon the US and its Western vassals to supply ever more weapons to Ukraine, to ratchet up the sanctions on Russia, even as the disastrous blowback from such measures manifested themselves in the devastation of the European economies.

Moreover, Blinken’s stalwart assistant, Under Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, has been at times even more vocal than her boss in calling for the most extreme measures against Russia, most recently suggesting that the US should support Ukraine in attacking “critical” Russian installations in Crimea.
