“Nothing changes much when the crisis becomes existential. Short-term interests prevail. The logic is clear in competitive systems, as in unregulated markets. Those who do not participate in the game are quickly excluded”Chomsky said, continuing: “The competition between the ‘principal architects of policy’ in the state system has somewhat similar properties, but we must keep in mind that the safety of the population is far from a guiding principle, as history clearly shows.”

The American activist of Jewish origin referred to the roles that the United States, Europe and China are adopting in the face of the military invasion of Ukraine by the Russian president. In other words, commented on the reasons why some world leaders are not willing to see an end to the conflict.

On the one hand, he considered that “crazy Vlad is so insane, and so immersed in peasant dreams of rebuilding an empire and perhaps conquering the world, that there is no point in even listening to what the Russians say.”

The second is that the Russian military has been paraded like a paper tiger, so incompetent and fragile, and so poorly managed, that it cannot conquer cities located a few kilometers from its border, largely defended by an army of citizens.

In fact, for the moment, there is no horizon of peace and resolution. While it could be stopped through diplomacy and political prowess, nothing like that happens.

“The crisis goes much further. Let’s try to be honest about it: the perpetuation of war is, in simple terms, a program of mass murder over much of the global South”, he said, while the standoff is not going well for Russian forces, which are suffering heavy losses and may be running low on supplies and morale. Perhaps for this reason, the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskysupported by Western countries, stated a few days ago on the Greek state broadcaster ERT that “the war will end when Ukraine wins.”

Meanwhile, for him, he analyzes how the US could win a nuclear war with Russia: “Such analyzes border on criminal madness. And, unfortunately, the policies of the United States and NATO provide many possible scenarios for a rapid termination of the human society. To mention just one, Putin has so far refrained from attacking heavy weapons supply lines to Ukraine. It would not be much of a surprise if that were to end, which would lead Russia and NATO into a head-on conflict, with a path easy path to an escalation that could well lead to a quick goodbye.
