Dmitry Medvedev on war with Europe

There’s a constant drumbeat in Europe about war with Russia within the next five years.

That’s not going to happen.

Why?

Because it is against our national interests.

1. Russia doesn’t need a war with anyone, least of all the frigid old crone, Europe. There’s nothing in it for us. Europe’s economy is weak and dependent on the US, and its culture is degenerating into oblivion. Europe is losing its identity, dissolving in a flood of belligerent migrants.

2. The key priority for the Russian people is developing our own country, including rebuilding the territories that have returned to the fold. That’s neither easy nor cheap.

3. Russia has always come to Europe as a liberator, never as an invader.

Why won’t Europe start a war itself?
Here’s why:

1. European countries are vulnerable and divided amongst themselves. They can only pursue their own interests, struggling to stay afloat in today’s economic turmoil. They cannot afford a war with Russia.

2. European leaders are pathetic degenerates, unable to shoulder responsibility for any serious undertaking. They lack the strategic thinking, let alone the energy (in Russia it’s called passionarity), to make successful military decisions.

3. Most Europeans are soft and apathetic; they are unwilling to fight for any common ideals or even their own land.

Why is war still possible?

The chance of a tragic accident always exists. And hyperactive trigger-happy lunatics also remain a factor. This kind of conflict has a genuine risk of spiraling into a war with weapons of mass destruction.

So we must not let our guard down.
