The First World War began unexpectedly for many. The Second World War was expected, but it broke out suddenly. The Third was Cold, the Fourth is raging now. Ukraine took the first fight and was the first to strike back. After Ukraine, the entire civilized world. “By 2030, Europe must be stronger than Russia,” says Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk. The war is not for resources – it is for the meaning and essence of life. Here, there is no room for compromise or collusion. Someone will have to disappear.”
Only the elimination of the source of aggression will stop the bloodshed. The destruction of the Putin clique is the only possible way to stop the mass murders. Europe is objectively becoming the base of the confrontation with the Kremlin, the protective stronghold for humanity. A Ukrainian vanguard. The first frontier is Intermarium, with strike forces in Poland, the Baltics and Scandinavia. Key fortifications on German, French, British and Italian soil. And so on – to the Atlantic bastion of Portugal.
In their time, Charles de Gaulle and Winston Churchill, French nationalists and British conservatives, created the nuclear forces of Europe. It is not missiles with nuclear warheads that form the basis of European defence. Let us pay tribute to the wisdom of General de Gaulle, who foresaw the somersaults of American policy and took care of the military self-sufficiency of France. However, the foolish illusions of the “end of history” at the recent turn of the century have shaken and undermined much. The restoration of effective armed forces in European countries is at least a medium-term task. War does not wait.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine are currently the first army in Europe. The Polish and Finnish troops are in decent shape. The Baltic countries are taking their defence and security seriously. However, the number and armament of Ukraine’s potential allies are insufficient. On the agenda is a radical military reform, reformatting and rearmament of the armies of Western Europe. Including the revival of German military traditions. In the best-case scenario, if political decisions are made, Putin’s “fifth columns” are neutralized, and the necessary funds are found, this will be a topic for at least a decade. Meanwhile, Putinism is accelerating events, rushing to take advantage of Trump’s betrayal.
The situation is extremely dangerous. But there is something to remember from relatively recent history. The defeat of the USSR in the Cold War developed in parallel with the destruction of the CPSU regime.
A prime example was provided by Ronald Reagan’s America in the 1980s. Reaganism is not only the neoconservative revolution of the West, not only Star Wars. “In the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, we see dissidents, in Poland, we see the Solidarity movement. We see freedom fighters in Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Cambodia and Angola. We must help them,” said the great Ronnie.
And here we come to the essence of the current moment.
The Russian Volunteer Corps, the Legion of Freedom of Russia, and the Siberian Battalion are fighting for Ukraine side by side with the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This is the only real Russian political emigration. In Russia, there is no other opposition except the partisan movement. Everything else can and should be forgotten. Russian partisans have become an indisputable force in three years. The scale and actions are incomparable with the underground fighters of the “pre-July” era. Not a day goes by without news of forceful actions. Military registration and enlistment offices, administrations, courts and vehicles were set on fire, and there was sabotage on railways and pipelines.
History teaches: that the strength of the partisans is directly proportional to the degree of unity. In the early 1930s, three million rebels fought against the Stalinist dictatorship. This is not an artistic exaggeration, but statistics from the reports of the ODPU. From Ukraine to Kazakhstan, from the Moscow region to the Baikal region, from the Caucasus to the Arctic. There were front-line battles, both with punishers and with regular army units. Thousands of people participated in the street riots of the Khrushchev era. However, these movements were suppressed in different ways.
Conclusions have been drawn. The armed underground on the territory of modern Russia is organizationally uniting. The priority is practical coordination. The combination of resources and the exchange of operational methods strengthens the combat unit and increases conspiratorial capabilities. The goal is one. The epicentre of the war must be shifted to Russia. The entire civilized world needs this. For the guerrilla war to outrun the world war, to stop it. This is a duty to the people and humanity, which is already being fulfilled.
