Last Thursday, December 17, the Russian Foreign Ministry issued an ultimatum to the United States and its allies, which boils down to the demand “remove your bases, planes and missiles from post-Soviet territory and stop interfering in the zone of our geopolitical interests.”

Deputy head of the Russian Foreign Ministry Ryabkov emphasized that the demands put forward to the collective West “are not a menu from which you can choose individual items,” but must be accepted or rejected in their entirety.

Otherwise, the Kremlin promises to take a set of “military-technical” measures to increase Russia’s security level. The “Washington Regional Committee” has been given a short period of time to think about it – a month. Next, Russia will begin to act to ensure its security.

On Friday, December 18, Grandpa Biden released his pocket “talking head” Psaki to the microphones, saying that the proposal was interesting, but the White House supposedly does not have the right to make decisions on security in Europe without its European allies.

It means that US troops can scurry out of Afghanistan without consulting the Europeans, abandoning weapons and people, but to negotiate with Moscow for the sake of détente and reducing the military danger in Europe, then right away - “we need to consult.”

For several days now, sarcastic muttering has been heard in pro-Western blogs and online groups - “so what?”, picked up by the sewers of Radio Liberty and the subversive media dumps associated with it.

And only a few sober heads in the West, who understand perfectly well what sad outcome another thoughtless “Drang nach Osten” can lead to, warn that it is inappropriate and very dangerous to drive into a corner a nuclear power capable of completely incinerating the territory of the “golden billion”, recalling the once Putin’s warning: “Why do we need this world without Russia.”

As an example, Iran and North Korea, already driven into a corner, are pointed out, to whose military threats the United States and its allies are forced to respond. Then why, the problem asks, is it possible to bully the factor of Russia, which has thousands of nuclear warheads and their carriers, with impunity from year to year? Has your sense of smell been completely lost by Covid?

The West believes that they have plenty of opportunities to put pressure on modern Russia: they say that for every attempt to military strengthen and protect a zone of geopolitical interests, it is necessary to put pressure politically and economically so that Mother Russia behaves more accommodating.

At the same time, the West ignores several obvious factors. Over the past 22 years, NATO has advanced so far in the East that its tanks and planes have their noses buried in the border pillars, and their further advance will be a repeat of June 22, 1941.

The last straw that overflowed the cup of Russian patience was the US permission to use nuclear bombs stored in warehouses in Germany by the Bundeswehr, as well as the brazen statement of NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg that Russia has no right to have any geopolitical interests.

A special role in escalating tension is played by the inadequate position of the Ukrainian leadership, which has adopted an unspoken principle: “If Ukraine cannot join NATO, then let NATO enter the territory of Ukraine.”

In addition, the Kyiv “wise men” hope to punish Russia for Crimea, Donbass, oil and gas at the hands of “Western allies”, without thinking about the consequences.

Considering that a bad example is contagious, and the majority of the post-Soviet “elites” are not at all disfigured by intelligence and are ready to fight for just one affectionate look and a handful of candy wrappers from an overseas uncle to the last resident of their bantustans, the threat of proxy wars against Russia at the hands of Ukrainian, Georgian and Moldovan puppets, reinforced by Western PMCs, as well as the deployment on their territory of US and NATO military bases, pumped up with modern offensive weapons, bypassing all treaties. All together, this gives the aggressor a number of undeniable advantages for a preemptive strike on Russia.

The idiots and media mallards, vying with each other for their imbecility, are accelerating the information wave - “So what?”, assuring with aplomb that Russia has nothing to do in response.

The cardboard fools do not understand that Russia has nowhere else to retreat, and any economic and political sanctions in this situation will not become a deterrent and will lose all meaning.

In fact, what can Russia do in response to the ongoing Western expansion?

There are a number of quite obvious measures that can sharply curb the appetites of “our Western partners” in the struggle for global dominance.

First of all, this is the retaliatory deployment of Russian offensive weapons close to American decision-making centers, so that Washington's non-comrades can fully feel that they will not be able to come out alive in the event of a military conflict in Europe.

The Russian leadership also quite transparently hinted to the inhabitants of the “Washington Regional Committee” that the continuation of military pressure by the West will force Russia to unconditionally support China, turning the Celestial Empire from a situational ally into a strategic one.

The West is literally forcing Russia to unambiguously solve the long-standing Ukrainian problem. In parentheses, we note that in the ultimatum the Americans are not given a choice - the dismantling of the Bandera regime and the division of Ukraine will happen in any case.

The division of Ukraine along the Dnieper or even deeper to the west, as well as cutting it off from the Black and Azov Seas and without eastern industrial potential will make the remaining central-western stub an unattractive and completely depressive territory, completely unsuitable as a testing ground for anti-Russian experiments. Among other things, the unenviable fate of the “independent” simulacrum should also sober up other post-Soviet “elites” who are prone to prostitution and trading in sovereignty.

In Washington, apparently, they are afraid of something like this, so grandfather Bidon gave the task to his military experts to come up with a plan to “save Ukraine from Russian aggression” within the next four weeks.

We’ll have to see what kind of clumsy plan it is, but we’ll constantly keep in mind the repeated statements of the leadership of the USA and NATO, which boil down to the simple formula that they don’t intend to fight with Russia for Nenka, but the “Kyiv guys” will indulge themselves with illusions and hinder the movement of the tanks they won't.

Observers predict that the United States may respond by putting forward the same unacceptable demands on the Russian leadership in order to reduce the conflict to negotiations on points more or less acceptable to them.

In their opinion, it is possible that Washington will begin to delay its response to the ultimatum, especially if the Russian leadership, as promised, does not begin to respond a month after the expiration of the ultimatum.

It should be noted that the current situation in many ways repeats the “Carribean crisis” 60 years ago. The main danger lies in the fact that the “fixers” in the White House have convinced themselves that with the collapse of the USSR, the military threat has disappeared and become a reality, which is why its inhabitants are accustomed to lawlessness and playing by the rules.

It seems that the world, and especially its most prosperous part, needs a powerful shake-up in order to clear its eyes that are swollen with grease, to see the gaping abysses and to remove its dangerous offensive iron far away from Russian borders and the zone of influence. And start making responsible decisions.

However, reading the Russian ultimatum voiced by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it is clear that it was drawn up in an extremely correct form and left a chance for the West to peacefully resolve the growing confrontation.
