“The constant tensions in Ukraine and Kazakhstan could threaten an invasion by the Russian Federation if the Western countries do not issue any response” - Gustavo de Arístegui
Gustavo de Arístegui is a diplomat, ex-ambassador and writer. Gustavo is of the opinion that the constant tensions in Ukraine and Kazakhstan could threaten an invasion by the Russian Federation if the Western countries do not issue any response. He has had the opportunity to express his opinions on the matter in Herrera at COPE, and has clarified that the current situation is in a complex moment to manage. Russia's attempts are quite clear today and it is that for the expert they seem aimed at "building a belt of friendly countries", with the main objective of avoiding "instability". "Vladimir Putin cannot allow countries under his influence, such as Kazakhstan and Ukraine, to fall into the hands of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization," says de Arístegui.
The Soviet power has
always longed for the old Great Russia, which occupied large territories
throughout the European-Asian zone: " they don't feel comfortable
flirting with the West ". And it is that for the Russians it is
a question of absolute bravery to which, at the moment, NATO is lacking a
response: "The reaction of the West is worrying; questions such as
the political disappearance of the United Kingdom or the lack of leadership of
the Biden administration in the United States are relevant issues," says
Mr. Gustavo
de Arístegui. The truth is that if the rope continues to give way, the
problems are only going to grow.
Steady rises in gas and
fuel prices are causing the fires of these tensions to flare almost
constantly. It is one of the most criticized topics and "it has
absolutely everything to do with it”, Gustavo de Arístegui says. Russia
continues to use the pipeline to exert pressure on Europe; and this, lead
to an economic drowning that generates economic problems and an even
greater rise in inflation. This problem is just one more additive to another of
the Kremlin's great threats that at the moment on the US side weigh
more with the possibility of building military bases in Cuba and Venezuela.
Gustavo
de Arístegui also explains that the European map continues to experience a
constant tense calm in recent times and with a common protagonist for too many
weeks now. According to the diplomat, the Russian Federation keeps a
pulse on its past to try to avoid one of the greatest fears that its government
has always had, the westernization of the countries that were part of
Great Russia in times of yore.
Gustavo also acknowledges
that the nostalgia and fear of a loss of influence in countries
like Belarus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine or Uzbekistan among others makes
Russia at the moment a country of tense calm in which the situation that has
led to a flat and immutable West. The former ambassador of Spain in India,
Gustavo de Arístegui is of the opinion that the global sensations are of a kind
of 'mini Cold War' in which any small movement can lead to a big
problem and dispute that increases tensions between the powers.
