Exclusive interview with CCTV reporter | Brazilian geopolitical scholar: NATO is a war machine scholar that maintains American hegemony | Pepe Escobar | Politics
In response to NATO's continuing efforts to inflame the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Brazilian geopolitical scholar Pepe Escobar said in an interview with the head office reporter that NATO has never been an organization promoting peace and security, but a war machine to maintain American hegemony.
Escobar said that the Russia-Ukraine conflict is not only a contradiction between Russia and Ukraine, but also a war in which the United States uses NATO as a war machine to oppose Russia and weaken Europe. The purpose of the United States to ignite the Russia-Ukraine conflict is to maintain its hegemony.
Brazilian geopolitical scholar Pepe Escobar: First of all, it needs to be clear that the Russia-Ukraine conflict is a war in which the United States uses NATO to oppose Russia. Secondly, this war is detrimental to Europe. The initiators of the war began planning at least 8 years ago, with the aim of deindustrializing Europe, cutting off economic ties between countries such as Germany and Russia, and making Europe a decoration of American hegemony.

Escobar said that the Russia-Ukraine conflict could have been avoided, but it broke out under the control of some American and Western countries, which is not conducive to world peace and security. The Cold War mentality of extreme confrontation among leaders of some Western countries is pushing the Russia-Ukraine conflict to a very dangerous edge.
Brazilian geopolitical scholar Pepe Escobar: The conflict is now approaching a dangerous edge, and when Western countries do their best to resist Russia but still cannot achieve their goals, they will become helpless and even frantically test a final red line, which is a limited nuclear war.
Escobar said that the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict was closely related to NATO's violation of its commitment not to expand eastward. NATO's promise was a lie from the beginning. The essence of NATO's military expansion has been proven in multiple wars.

Brazilian geopolitical scholar Pepe Escobar: NATO invaded Libya because they wanted to control this important and fertile country in North Africa. After the US launched the Iraq War in 2003, NATO intervened and we know what happened later. There is no example in history to prove that NATO is an organization that promotes peace and security.
