in attendance UOL News, international relations professor Gunther Rudzit commented on President Joe Biden’s speech at the UN General Assembly in New York. For Rudzit, the US strategy will be to create a “narrative war” to play the world against Russia and President Vladimir Putin.
“This fight of versions of both sides is more than expected. This fight has always been about everything the two great powers face off, and both sides try to pass the other off as the irresponsible, rule-breaking lunatic. It was like that when the Americans invaded Iraq in 2003.” And it was the other way around,” he said.
The professor also noted that at this time Joe Biden could do nothing but create a narrative war, but Putin knew that the escalation of the war that led to a nuclear conflict would also harm Russia itself.
Finally, Gunther Rudzit pointed out that although Putin knew the consequences of nuclear escalation, war with Russia was never a good deal.
“There is a fear for him [Putin] can escalate the war. There is this fear because the problem with going to a war against Russia is not that you lose, but that you start winning, because the Russian reaction will be very strong. In that case, when he says he can climb and he says he’s serious about it, he’s serious about it.”
Former ambassador says Putin is not bluffing about nuclear weapons use and escalating war
“This statement by Putin shows an escalation in war and they will see it to the end. In his statement, the use of tactical nuclear weapons is the use of weapons, not the most destructive nuclear weapons. It was developed to have localized action,” said former ambassador Rubens Barbosa UOL News.
Barbosa also emphasized how seriously the Russians take this conflict. “Putin said it’s about the existence of Russia. They think so. So he’s definitely not bluffing. From his point of view, he’ll use tactical weapons if necessary.”
Former banker Eduardo Moreira cancels classes due to bolsonarists’ threats: ‘Bolsonaro’s sect’
“Anyways [responsabilizo Bolsonaro pelas ameaças] because this ‘I empower’ story is the opposite, Bolsonaro, who has empowered the most fanatical legion of followers, feels empowered by the bolsonarista sect and the president, and he feels empowered by a power he doesn’t have, because who was Bolsonaro who was elected and had power,” said former banker Eduardo Moreira. UOL News.
Moreira also reported that the first threats he started receiving came with the leak of a report by the Ministry of Economy, which showed a list of five scammers.
