"Events
Today Could Lead To The Last War In The History Of Mankind",
Veteran Putin General Warns
7
April, 2018
The
fallout from the Salisbury nerve agent attack reminds us of the
assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, which was the most
immediate catalyst - of many parallel narrative and sequences of
events - that ultimately resulted in World War I. We are not alone in
this reasoning, as one high-level retired Russian general warns the
Salisbury poisoning could lead to the “last war in the history of
mankind.”
Ret.
Lieutenant-General Evgeny Buzhinsky — who served in the Russian
Armed Forces for more than forty years — said relations between
Russia and Washington could become “worse” than the climax of the
Cold War and “end up in a very, very bad outcome” following the
nerve gas attack in the United Kingdom.
More
than 150 Russian diplomats have been expelled from 25 countries —
including 23 from the United Kingdom since western nations accused
Russia of being the sole actor responsible for using deadly chemical
weapons on Sergei Skripal and his daughter in their Salisbury home.
Buzhinsky,
who is now the senior vice president of the Russian Center for Policy
Studies (PIR Center), told BBC Radio Today program:
“Please,
when you say the world, you mean EU and United States and some other
countries … you see it’s a cold war, it’s worse than the Cold
War because if the situation will develop in the way this (is) now,
I’m afraid that it will end up in a very, very bad outcome.”
Nicholas
Robinson, a British presenter on the BBC’s Today program pressed
Buzhinsky on what he meant by “worse than a cold war,” to which
the Ret. Russian Lieutenant-General responded with this bombshell:
today’s current situation is spiraling out of control and could
develop into a “real war.”
Are we seeing a new Cold War? It's worse, says General Evgeny Buzhinsky, who served on the Russian general staff for many years #r4today
The
Daily Express shares a chilling transcript of Buzhinsky’s
conversation on BBC:
He
said: “Worse than a cold war is a real war. It will be the last war
in the history of the mankind."
“Not
the Salisbury poisoning but all the actions."
"You
see the pressure from the United States, that you say the pressure is
going to continue, what are you going to achieve? You are going to
achieve the regime change, it’s useless. You don’t know Russians.
The more external pressure, the more the society is solidified around
the President.”
When
asked how the dispute would lead to a real war, Mr Buzhinsky accused
the UK of not wanting to discuss the Salisbury attack.
“Let’s
start discussing,” he said. “You don’t want to discuss. You say
Russia should change its behaviour, it’s not the kind of talk or
compromise we need.
“Okay,
you expelled diplomats. We expelled diplomats. You further expel,
what is the next step? The breach of diplomatic relations."
“After
that, I said it may lead to nowhere. Actually, you are cornering
Russia. To corner, Russia is a very dangerous thing."
Mr
Buzhinsky claimed it was “nonsense” Russia was behind the attack
as President Vladimir Putin had no benefit out of the attack, which
took place before the Russian Presidential election. The comments
come after Mr Putin’s foreign minister accused Theresa May of
“resorting to open lies”.
He
said: “I believe that our Western partners, I mean primarily the
United Kingdom, the United States and some countries that blindly
follow them, have cast away all decency, they are resorting to open
lies, blatant misinformation.”
Between
cold, proxy and trade wars, as time moves on in the Trump era, it
seems like the world has gone haywire. While history tends not to
repeat itself - but rather rhymes - the fatalistic opinion of a
veteran Russian expert and observer such as Buzhinsky has to be taken
seriously. We can only hope that his forecast for a "last war"
is wrong.
From the Daily Telegraph
A
FORMER Russian general has warned the fallout from the Salisbury
attack could lead to the “last war in the history of mankind” in
a terrifying threat to Britain.
Russian
General States “War Would Definitely End With Use Of Nuclear
Weapons”
7
April, 2018
Ex-chief
of the international treaty management of the Russian Defense
Ministry lieutenant-general Yevgeny Buzhinsky has spoken to the
American magazine The National Interest.
The
military is convinced that the current situation is more dangerous
than during the Cold War.
I
always say that it’s worse now! During the Cold War everything was
clear: an ideological confrontation, but there were certain truths,
there was a line that you don’t cross, no threats, no sanctions.
An
open armed confrontation between Moscow and Washington can occur in
Syria, the general says. He recalled the statement of the chief of
the General Staff of the RF Armed Forces Valery Gerasimov, who
threatened with a full-scale military response in the event that the
United States strikes Damascus. There are Russian servicemen there.
“I
do not think he joked or made a statement specifically to surprise
some Americans. No, I’m absolutely sure that he spoke seriously,”
explained Buzhinsky, adding that the open confrontation between
Moscow and Washington “will definitely end with the use of nuclear
weapons.”
The
lieutenant general also shared his opinion about the poisoning of
ex-colonel of the GRU Sergey Skripal and his daughter Julia in
British Salisbury. In his opinion, this is nothing more than a
“planned provocation” of London, whose goal is to demonize and
isolate Russia, to find a pretext for the expulsion of Russian
diplomats.
Believe
me, President Putin is the last person on Earth who would attempt
such a terrible act on the eve of the Russian presidential elections
and on the eve of the World Cup.
He
admitted that the motive of the British side is incomprehensible to
him, but he suggested that the actions of Great Britain in the “case
of Skripal” are coordinated with Washington
