The Russian special military operation in Ukraine has entered its second week, amid progress on various axes of fighting, and the Ukrainian army and nationalist extremists incurred losses in lives and equipment, while Western countries continue their escalatory support for the Kyiv authorities, ignoring the risks to global stability.

Despite the intimidation and Western media incitement for weeks from Washington and its allies against Russia, the Western Atlantic support for Ukraine after the start of the military operation was limited to military equipment, financial aid and political hypocrisy without entering a real war on the side of the Ukrainian forces.

The Americans proceed from this position on the grounds that Ukraine is not a neighbor of the United States, does not have a US military base, does not have strategic reserves of oil, and is not a major trading partner of Washington.

In addition to the above, there is no treaty that carries obligations that compel America and NATO countries to fight alongside the Ukrainians because Ukraine is not a member of NATO, whose Charter says that any attack on a member state is an attack on the rest of the members, and all member states are obligated to defend each other. some.

All this prompted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to admit after the start of the Russian operation that Ukraine was left alone and that he did not see anyone ready to fight on the side of his country, which forced him, after losing hope of Western lies, to bow to the negotiating table with the Russians after initially refusing.

It is certain that America and its allies aim, behind fueling the Ukrainian crisis, to strike at Russian-European relations, to revive the strategy of European terror and fear of Russia, and most importantly, to escalate the economic sanctions packages against Russia, originally imposed since 2014, which is the usual weapon that Washington always resorts to in crises and wars, and the main goal is In this case, it is the effect on the Russian economy, which is strongly competing with the American economy, besieging Russia and restricting it economically and financially, keeping it under the pressure of sanctions and limiting Russian gas exports to Europe.

That is, what is happening is an economic war in the first place, while Moscow and many of its officials have confirmed that its special military operation aims to protect its strategic national security and repel dangers and attempts at Atlantic expansion towards its borders, and that it has no intention of occupying the territory of Ukraine.

In appreciation of Russia's support for the Syrian people throughout the years of the global terrorist war, Syria affirmed its support for the Russian special military operation and that it will help Russia in facing Western sanctions, based on the correctness of its position, especially that the danger facing Russia and Syria is one.
