TheAltWorld Why did the U.S. Department of Defence suddenly give Ukraine “Tomahawk” missiles?
How did the Chinese president acknowledge Trump’s weaknesses? Did Beijing dominate the trade war?
The “CNN” news network revealed yesterday that the U.S. Defence Department’s Pentagon has made a preliminary decision to supply Ukraine with long-range “Tomahawk” missiles, which would enable them to strike military targets deep within Russia, including its capital, Moscow. If this decision is implemented and the Ukrainian army receives this type of missile, a military confrontation, and possibly a nuclear one, between the U.S. and Russia is rapidly approaching.
This American escalation came after the summit meeting between President Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, where the latter demanded qualitative military support that would change the equation of the ground war in Ukraine. It appears that the U.S. Defence Department is responding to this request, announcing that it can provide 1,500 “Tomahawk” missiles without affecting its stockpile of them.
The arrival of “Tomahawk” missiles to the Ukrainian army means shifting the war for Ukraine from a defensive level to a long-range offensive one. For this reason, Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, hastened to warn of catastrophic consequences for everyone—America and European countries, not just Ukraine—in a direct hint at nuclear war. Perhaps President Trump’s decision to resume nuclear tests after a freeze lasting decades is one of the most prominent preparations to face such a possibility if the rift continues between the former “friends”—Trump and Putin.
The threat to provide 1,500 “Tomahawk” missiles to Ukraine by the U.S. Department of Defence came as a quick response to President Putin’s personal announcement about the development of his country’s military industry, the “Burevestnik” or “Storm Bringer” missile equipped with a nuclear engine, capable of covering a distance of 14,000 kilometres in 15 minutes, and equipped with systems that enable it to bypass all radars and fly continuously for 15 hours, with no equivalent in America and the West so far.
True, the “Tomahawk” missile, the pinnacle of American military technology, boasts a range of 1600 to 2500 kilometres, weighs 450 kilogrammes, flies at low altitudes to evade radar detection, and has high precision. However, it cannot be compared to the new Russian missile.
Trump, who is losing his trade wars, will not win any military war. His repeated claims of focusing on peace and stopping wars (boasting that he has stopped nine of them so far) are an escape from acknowledging this loss. Russian writer Alexander Nazarov confirmed in his recent article that the summit meeting held in South Korea between him and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping did not achieve its goals and ended in failure. Nazarov omitted the fact that Trump was unable to create the desired division between China and Russia.
The famous British magazine “The Economist” dedicated the cover of its latest issue and its main editorial to affirm that China has won the trade war declared by President Trump. It was confirmed that the White House’s firm belief in America’s superiority in the nerve war with China, along with the perception of China’s weakness, contributed to this failure. But Chinese shrewdness showed otherwise, and this war was won by the Chinese.
The writer of this editorial in The Economist was bold and correct when he asserted that the Chinese leadership, and perhaps the Russian one as well, has reached a firm conviction that President Trump is a “coward” who escalates his threats, especially in the trade war, and even in the military realm, only to back down. The difference was evident when he raised tariffs on Chinese products, only to quickly retract them with the first tremor in the Wall Street stock market in New York.
President Trump, with his stupidity and surrounding himself with a group of real estate brokers, most of whom are Zionists and foolish advisors, is destroying his country’s prestige as a superpower and leading to its collapse and disintegration. China and Russia understand this truth well and anticipate that Trump’s disastrous downfall will occur in a year, specifically after the midterm elections for Congress and the Senate next November, when the ballot box results are expected to be shocking for the Republican Party.
The Chinese president, who led the trade war against Trump with overwhelming superiority, rubs his hands in joy after humiliating him in the Seoul meeting in South Korea, forcing him to retreat from all his tax and trade bravado. As for North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, who defeated Trump twice in his first term during their meetings in Singapore and Vietnam, he has never been enthusiastic about responding to his request for a third meeting.
Finally, Putin’s new giant missile, “Burevestnik,” has dwarfed all American missiles, especially the “Tomahawk,” and the future looks bleak for “clown” Trump, who supports the genocide in Gaza. May there be no gloating.
