    The Ukraine war is clearly not coming to a close, in spite of the views of many here that it is more or less over. NATO and the EU are not prepared to yield.

    War by 2030.
    The only way NATO and the EU can be so certain of this is if they plan to initiate it.

    As socialists we oppose all wars and all nation-states, which are the various armed camps of the capitalist class.

    I fear that it is those of the West in this case who intend to initiate a terrifying all-out war with Russia.

    MOSCOW, July 31. /TASS/. Today, the European Union is focused on the tasks of militarization, “demonization” of Russia and preparations for war with it, while trying to “sweep under the carpet” its own problems, such as the massive crossing of migrants into Ceuta in Spain, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko said.

    The upcoming joint nuclear exercises of Germany and France demonstrate that the Europeans are preparing for war with Russia.

    TASS has compiled the key statements by the deputy foreign minister.

    Migration crisis in Spain
    Russia is amazed at the news from Ceuta, which testifies to the collapse of the EU migration policy: “We look at this news with great surprise, of course, and sympathize with the human tragedy. In any case, this is such a humanitarian catastrophe that affects everyone, but at the same time it must be admitted that this is the collapse of the immigration policy that has been pursued by the European Union for many years.”

    Moscow expects that the problem with migrants in Spain will be solved “in accordance with the norms of international law, with a tolerant and humanitarian attitude towards the fate of every migrant.”

    The EU is trying to sweep its own problems, such as the current situation on the Spanish-Moroccan border under the carpet.

    Germany’s preparations for war with Russia
    Today, the European Union is focused on the tasks of militarization, “demonization” of Russia and preparations for war with it: “But today everything is subordinated to the task of militarization, everything is subordinated to the task of preparing a war with Russia, demonizing our country.”

    Berlin’s plans for militarization are no secret to Russia: “For us, of course, this policy of militarization is not a secret. We see it, and our plans will be adjusted accordingly – military-political and military construction plans.”

    The desire of European countries not to notice the militarization of Germany is surprising, this is the silence of the lambs: “But the amazing thing is that Europe is silent on this issue. Such is the silence of the lambs.”

    The upcoming joint nuclear exercises of Germany and France demonstrate that the Europeans are preparing for war with Russia: “The Europeans are preparing for war with Russia. They don’t hide it, they speak publicly [about it]. I don’t remember who, but one of the officials, the French defense minister, I think, said, ‘We must prepare our French sons to fight with Russia.’”

    It looks like the US/Israel war against Iran is having knock-on consequences for the Russo-Ukrainian war. Iran had earlier threatened to fire missiles at selected targets in Ukraine in response to the latter destroying a ship (with military supplies?) en route to Iran.

    Ukraine apparently backed down and promised not to do that again. However, it now faces a bigger threat because of the situation in Iran, which has resulted in a shortage of interceptor systems such as the Patriot system. It is now much more vulnerable to Russian missiles than ever before.

    You have to wonder if this is indeed a “turning point”, as this article suggests, and whether the end of this stupid, pointless war might finally be in sight

    The USA is running out of missiles; at present, Iran is more important for them than Ukraine. They also know that the war in Ukraine is already lost. This situation shows that the USA is not capable of keeping a long war any more; the old days of World War II are gone. If they launch a ground invasion, it is going to open a Pandora’s box in the Middle East, and they are going to be defeated using conventional weapons. The USA only has one choice, which is to admit defeat

    It takes years to build a hypersonic missile, and they are very expensive. Iran is manufacturing a great quantity of missiles at a lower price
