Unknown European powers have started a global wolfpack-style war sinking Russian oil tankers probably with an intention to damage Russian oil sales. Selling oil help Russia pay for its special military operation to recover land lost to the west during the 1991 carpet bagging era following the Soviet collapse.
Russian ships have been sunk in the Black Sea off the coast of Senegal, West Africa in recent days. That escalation to a global battle changes things significantly; risking Russian responses that could be attacks on England, France or Germany- the most likely perpetrators of the expansion of the theater of war.
With Russian military forces making slow, steady progress advancing toward the Dnepro River- a simple demarcation line to end the conflict, the Trump administration has sought to bring both sides to agreement on ending the war, yet the Western powers backing Ukraine have no intention of allowing peace to occur unless it is on their terms. Regardless of the fact that a neutral Ukraine with reduced exterior borders where Russia and the West could resume East-West trade and normal commerce would be best for all concerned, the corruption of Ukraine's government and surreptitious will of the Western European traditional powers to own all of Ukraine and intimidate Russia with military forces on Russia's border such that they support Ukraine's war efforts vociferously have continued the death machine of thousands locked into combat.
Peace with Russia can only occur with international recognition of a reduced Ukraine and Russia recovering its former Ukraine lands and a neutral, demilitarized Ukraine that poses no threat to East or West. Ukraine as the middle ground or borderland should recover quickly enough and prosper from international trade. The alternative of moving further down the road to global disaster is a reprehensible one. If Russia chooses to retaliate by sinking western ships arriving at European ports that alone could begin a collapse of the world economy and swift advance toward nuclear war. One feels that European leadership have their heads up their arses regarding the opportunity cost of pursuing the course of fomenting continued war instead of peace.
It may be that the rampant godless atheist trend of Europe away from faith has naturally brought the leaders to cluster into claves of violence and aggressive expansion Eastward toward Russia. They may feel entitled with natural exuberance such that developing hegemony over Russia and its vast natural resources is their right. U.S. Presidents have not, since the end of the Cold War, perhaps with the exception of President Trump, recalibrated their view and opinion of European military and political increase and unification, They tended to be blind to the implicit dangers of a very large, recrudescent European military that has a history of being the source of all global wars tamed only a little by the devastation of Europe in the two World Wars of the 20th century.
