As they say in Germany, Moscow in the field of confrontation with Washington chose the agreement on plutonium disposition, which was to exclude the possibility of its use for military purposes. According to the author, the reason why Putin has chosen this agreement, may be its connection with nuclear weapons that “awakens ancient, almost forgotten fears of the cold war.
- the Fact that the Treaty has nothing to do with the real problems of disarmament and arms control. An important signal that the confrontation will involve the area that since the end of the confrontation between the blocks was a taboo topic off from games for power – explains Veser.
As noted, Putin continues the same dangerous game, namely, the constant help that Russia is a nuclear power. The commentator believes that, at the time of the annexation of Crimea, Putin showed that he considered the formulation of the strategic nuclear forces in a state of combat readiness, and kremlowska propaganda stressed that Russia is the only country that would be able to turn the USA into ashes.
Veser estimates that the risk of V. Putin, of nuclear weapons is “highly unlikely” because the Russian President is “rational politician” who knows what would be the consequences of such attacks. It is, rather, that “reinforce the impression that Russia is a partner nieobliczalnym”, and using such tactics, he last year all opponents.
Is the behavior of the bully, which is better to get off the road, said Veser. The West needs his opinion, to put the question in such a situation, cooperation with Russia is still possible.

In his opinion, the West can only passively waiting for disaster, in accordance with the principle of Otto Bismarck that should be addressed only where it is profitable, or to engage actively in the war. “The vision that the United States bombarded the Syrian airport at the same time, when Russian fighter jets take off and land, quite dizzying,” warns “SZ”. According to Avenariusa is in fact only a third way – delivering weapons to the rebels.
the German commentator says that Putin wants to implement in Syria a scenario already known from Chechnya. “Because of its slowness the United States have already no way to prevent this Russia,” concludes the commentator “sh”.
the Leading magazine of the wheels of economic Handelsblatt warns staczaniem the world to the third world war. “The differences between the US and Russia shock the world, and they can be the beginning of a spiral of stress that will lead us to the brink of a third world war,” says Mathias Brueggmann comments in the “Anger and helplessness”.
“the conflict in Aleppo, the West has shown a beleaguered people that cannot help them. We are again surprised and go to the next helpless witnesses to the terrible war crimes committed in the eyes of the modern world, as before in Rwanda. We see that humanity and human life are not a priority of the global world order,” says Brueggmann.
