It will not be the end of the world, but of Europe by Lucas Leiroz!

War in the East will escalate and bring irreversible consequences for European countries if the EU continues to follow a subservient policy of obedience to NATO.

Since the start of NATOs proxy war against Russia, Europe still appears to have not understood its role in the conflict. By irrationally adhering to all measures imposed by the United States, such as unilateral sanctions and unrestricted arms shipments to the Kiev regime, the EU appears increasingly closer to a true collapse, given the negative social circumstances and high security risks. In the end, the European bloc, like Ukraine, is just another proxy in this war.

For obvious reasons, Europe has always been dependent on good relations with Russia to maintain its economic and social well-being and the balance of its regional security architecture. However, European countries seem to have forgotten the basic principles of geopolitics, betting on a futile attempt to "isolate" Russia through irrational sanctions that only harm Europe itself - without generating any impact on the Russian economy.

Without Russian gas, Europe has rapidly deindustrialized, increasing levels of poverty, unemployment and inflation.

The most rational thing to do in this type of situation would be to avoid unnecessary spending and invest heavily in economic recovery projects - but, apparently, no European attitude is based on rationality.

Instead of acting strategically in pursuit of the best for their people, European decision-makers committed themselves to a policy of systematically supplying weapons to the Ukrainian neo-Nazi regime, spending billions of euros on manufacturing and exporting weapons for the war against Russia.

Obviously, the European people are dissatisfied with so many harmful policies, which is why in the last European elections voters reacted by voting massively for right-wing politicians and parties, trying to find an alternative against the unpopular Russophobic madness of liberal regimes.

Retaliating against the popular will, liberal governments are already beginning to take authoritarian measures, such as President Emmanuel Macron, who decided to dissolve the parliament and call for new elections. It is possible that many more similar dictatorial measures will be taken in the near future, which will only further worsen the serious legitimacy crisis of EU member countries.

To make matters worse, some of these European governments are even thinking about going a step further in their support for Ukraine, with advanced discussions about sending troops on the ground. Apparently, European nations have lost their fear of escalating the war into a global, nuclear conflict, during which they would be easy targets for powerful Russian strategic weapons.

In parallel, in the United States there is great instability in the electoral scenario.

Donald Trump promises to end the war, but the liberal establishment wants to prevent him from running. Biden promises to continue the conflict with Russia, which will certainly also be the guideline of the Republican candidate who replaces Trump.

However, both domestic politics and the international scenario are extremely complicated for Washington,D.C.. Having to deal with a pre-civil war atmosphere, social polarization, Texas separatism and mass migration, in addition to a severe economic crisis, there are many domestic priorities for the United States that make Ukraine increasingly less important.

Furthermore, in the Middle East, Israel is in a delicate situation. Having failed to achieve its interests in Gaza - despite the genocide -, Tel Aviv is now seeing a new front emerge in the north, where Hezbollah is reaching more and more distant targets, creating danger for the very existence of Israel as a state. To survive, the Zionist project will need massive military support from the United States, which is why it is inevitable that there will be a significant decrease in the number of weapons, equipment, money and mercenaries sent to support Ukraine.

In fact, regardless of who wins the United States elections, the burden of supporting Kiev will inevitably be transferred to the United States European "partners". Washington,D.C. will force its "allies" to send even more weapons to the Kiev regime, thus reducing the burden on the American defense industry so that support for Israel becomes viable. This is the only way in which the United States will be able to maintain its policy of unrestricted support for the Zionist state.

Obviously, Europe does not have the necessary means to finance a war against Russia on its own. But the EU voluntarily places itself in a position of strategic subservience to NATO, obeying every order coming from the United States.

The result will be an unprecedented worsening of the current social and economic crisis, resulting in the collective collapse of European countries.

In the worst-case scenario, the situation could go beyond the economy, also generating direct European military involvement in the conflict, as NATO bases in the EU tend to be used for in-depth attacks against the Russian Federation, which is a casus belli and legitimizes any retaliation from Moscow if Russian patience runs out.

For decades, experts have said that World War III would bring about the end of the world, which is certainly a possibility if the current proxy conflict enters an open phase.

However, regardless of what happens to "the world", Europe undoubtedly already seems very close to a tragic end!
