우크라이나 전쟁: 오해와 역사적 맥락

### 우크라이나 전쟁의 복잡성 이해하기
* 🕊 우크라이나 전쟁을 둘러싼 내러티브는 종종 **푸틴을 소련 제국을 되찾으려는 악당**으로 묘사하는데, 이는 **이라크 전쟁 이전의 사담 후세인에 대한 잘못된 묘사**를 연상시킵니다.
* 📜 나토를 동쪽으로 확장하지 않겠다는 제임스 베이커의 약속을 비롯한 서방 지도자들의 역사적 약속은 대부분 무시되었고, 이는 **러시아와의 긴장 고조**로 이어졌습니다.
* 📉 조지 케넌과 같은 주요 인사들은 **나토의 확장이 러시아의 폭력적인 대응**을 불러올 것이라고 경고하면서 대신 **냉전 이후 러시아에 대한 통합과 지원**을 옹호했습니다.
* 💰 새로운 회원국들은 나토 표준에 부합하는 무기를 미국 방위산업체로부터 구매해야 했기 때문에 **미국 군산복합체는 나토의 확장으로 이득**을 얻었습니다.
* 🔄 2014년 우크라이나에서 발생한 쿠데타는 **미국의 개입으로 중립 정부가 전복**되었고, 그 결과 **러시아어를 사용하는 인구에 대한 내전과 폭력**이 발생했습니다.
* 📅 평화 플랫폼에도 불구하고 젤렌스키 우크라이나 대통령은 분쟁 해결을 목표로 한 **민스크 협정을 추진하지 말라는 압력**를 받아 긴장을 더욱 고조시켰습니다.
* ⚔ 푸틴의 크림반도 병합은 **지역 주민의 지지를 받았지만**, 이후 군사적 행동은 러시아의 이익을 보호하기 위한 방어적 조치가 아니라 **침략으로 잘못 해석**되었습니다.
* 📉 궁극적으로 미국은 **외교적 해법보다 군사적 개입을 우선시**하면서 평화 협상을 약화시키는 데 중요한 역할을 했고, 이는 분쟁 장기화로 이어졌습니다.

미국은 평화 노력을 약화시키고 러시아에 적대적인 정부를 지원함으로써 우크라이나 전쟁을 도발했습니다.

let me just tell you kind of the lead-up to what happened in the lead-up to the Ukraine war. The Ukraine war, we were lied to because we were told, Oh yeah, this evil Putin trying to take over Europe, and this is his first step to reestablishing the Soviet Empire. And that, you know, it's the same comic. Is that a lie? Yeah, it's the same comic book description we were given of Saddam Hussein in Iraq, which we were just lied into a war. And yeah, it was a slam dunk that he had weapons of mass destruction. Of course, he didn't, and he had nothing to do with terrorism, and he was running the most progressive nation in the Middle East. It was a secularized nation. It wasn't a theocracy. He wouldn't let people, you know, say, I will agree that, you know, maybe in hindsight, that was a mistake. But all then, let me tell you what happened, the real story behind what happened in Ukraine. And let me go back to 1992, because 1992, the walls come down, the

Berlin Wall comes down, and Gorbachev does something very courageous. He goes to Tony Blair and George Bush, and he says, I'm gonna allow you to do something that nobody in their right mind would do, which is I'm going to remove 450,000 Russian troops from East Germany, and I'm going to allow you to unify East Germany under NATO, which is a hostile army. But I want one commitment from you: you will never move NATO further to the east. James Baker, who was then Secretary of State, famously said to him, We will not move NATO one inch to the east. So then, five years later, in 1997, Zbigniew Brzezinski, who's the first of the neocons, comes along and proposes, Let's move NATO right up to the Russian borders. We're into 15 nations. Okay? And at that time, the most important diplomats in American history at that time were George Kennan, who was the architect of the containment policy during the Cold War. He said, If you do that, you're going

to force you're. This is crazy. It's insane. Russia just lost the Cold War. We should be giving them a Marshall Plan and integrating them into the civilized society, the Western society. Don't make them an enemy. Don't treat them like they're still an enemy. It's going to... This is going to force a violent military response from Russia if you do that. Bill Pierce, who was then the Secretary of Defense, threatened Clinton that he would resign if they went ahead with this plan because it was so reckless. And Bill Perry... And Bill Pierce is now the head of the CIA. Bill Perry, who was the US ambassador to Russia at the time, said the same thing. Why are you doing this? This is crazy. So between now and then, we moved NATO into 14 countries. Why do we move NATO in? Because when you move them into a new country, they have to sign a contract that conforms all their weapons purchases to NATO specifications, which means you have to buy the weapons from North Grumman, you know, from our... These big

US military contractors who profit from war. We move it that in the meantime. We walk away unilaterally from two nuclear weapons treaties with Russia. Russia wants those treaties. They're intermediate-range missile systems that you know so that which destabilizes Europe when we when we remove our agreement not to fire missiles on Russia. Then we put Aegis missile systems which are nuclear-capable in Romania and Poland. So the broad listen you know the details and these details are but and and and I'm not taking a side on this but if there was any which a lot of people aren't really advocates of but Trump if anything kind of and whether he was a puppet or not whatever you believe he kind of normalized the Russian relationship kind of right by becoming somewhat of a friend of Putin's. So between that time and the time that Putin there was no NATO movement between the time after the Trump Administration. Yeah well what we did is and we overthrew the government of Ukraine. No he he came into Ukraine.

before we overthrew the government in 2014. USAID, which spent $5 billion, which is a front for the CIA, which everybody acknowledges, went in there and started a revolution called the Maidan Rebellion, where there were these protests that ended with the overthrow of the elected government of Ukraine that wanted to keep Ukraine neutral. Yanukovych wanted to keep NATO neutral. We wanted a pro-US government, so we went in there in 2014, overthrew their government, and placed a government. And by the way, a month before the overthrow, we now have tapes. You can go on the internet and listen to Victoria Nuland, who's the head of the NIAH now, the deputy director of the State Department, choosing the new Ukrainian cabinet that will be put in place after the coup that was still a month away. So she knew the coup was coming a month in advance. But who is she to us? She's us. She's the head of the State Department. She's now, you know.

number three in the State Department, but she's been in the State Department. She's one of the, you know, she's a ni. She's the, she runs the niacon program, which is, you know, continual wars. So, she goes, they, we then pick a new government. The new government comes in, immediately begins attacking the people of Dbas and Lugans, who are Russian-speaking ethnic Russians. They banned the Russian language, which was, there was two languages that were two official languages in Ukraine. They ban that. Violence immediately erupts, and they kill 14. There's a civil war, and really this war started in 2014. There's 14,000, think Russians are killed, and Putin kept saying, You're killing our people. He's trying to get a peace agreement. They finally work out a peace agreement called the Minsk Accords. Germany signs onto it, France signs onto it, England signs onto it, and Russians sign onto it. Zelensky runs in 2019 as president. He runs, he has one platform issue. He's a

comedian and an actor, which I'm not. Is there anything wrong with that? Oh, my wife is one of those. Okay, all right. But he never had any political experience, right? But he wins with 70% of the vote. Why? 'Cause he runs on a peace platform. I'm going to sign the Minsk Accords as soon as he gets in there. Victoria Newland and the, you know, ultra-nationalists, which is a nice way of describing the, you know, the people who run that government now, um, tell him that he can't do it. He can't sign it. So, he pivots, and then, um, and then, uh, Putin then says, Okay, Putin is now faced with this problem. The United States government is now running the government of Ukraine, and he is frightened to death that the US Navy is going to go into Sevastopol, which is, you know, the southern port, has been the Russian port, it's the only warm-water port Russia has for 347 years. So, he then goes right into Ukraine 'cause he's got, I mean, into Crimea.

and takes Crimea without firing a shot, doesn't kill a single person, 'cause the people of Crimea are ethnic Russian and want him back. On him in their Dumas and Lugans then vote 90-90 to one, 90 to 10 to join Russia. Putin says, No, I don't want you. I want Ukraine to be a functioning state, but let's sign the Min Accords. And um, and they won't sign it. So then he signs, he sends in 40,000 troops. I'm almost done with this. It sends in 40,000 troops. That is not somebody who wants to conquer Ukraine. There, it's a nation of 44 million people. All he wanted was us back at the negotiating table. Um, Zinski, we will not help Zinsky negotiate. So he goes to Israel and gets Naali Bennett and Eran in Turkey to sponsor negotiations. And they go and they work out a peace agreement. And pu, they sign it in April of 2022. Putin is withdrawing his troops according to this peace agreement or he

starts withdrawing them. Biden sends over Tony Blair and tells Zinsky to rip up the peace agreement. Now, how do we know this? Because all the negotiators are now talking, including Neftali Bennett, and you can look it up when you're on the internet. You say you spend a lot of time. Look at his speech where he tells you what happened. The lead Ukrainian negotiator this week came clean and said, Yeah, that's what happened. Oh, you know, of course, Russia's been invaded three times through Ukraine. The last time, so is Russia the good guy in your mind? No, no, Russia. It was illegal what Russia did, but we have to understand they don't want this war. We wanted the war, so let me he

푸틴을 소련 제국을 재건하려는 사악한 침략자로 묘사하는 것은 이라크 전쟁 이전의 사담 후세인에 대한 잘못된 묘사와 비교됩니다.

1992년 동독에서 러시아 군대를 철수하기로 한 고르바초프의 결정은 나토를 동쪽으로 이동시키지 않겠다는 미국의 약속과 맞물렸지만, 이 약속은 나중에 깨졌습니다.

1997년 즈비그뉴프 브르제진스키가 나토를 러시아 국경 쪽으로 15개국으로 확장하자고 제안했는데, 이는 이전의 약속과 모순되는 것으로 미국과 러시아 간의 긴장을 초래했습니다.

NATO 확장이 러시아에 미치는 영향

연사는 냉전 이후 서방이 러시아를 대하는 태도가 무모했다고 주장하며, 적대 대신 마셜 플랜과 통합을 제안합니다.

나토의 14개국으로의 확장은 나토의 군사적 사양을 따르도록 강요하여 미국 군수 계약업체에 이익을 가져다준다는 비판을 받습니다.

연설자는 또한 핵무기 조약에서 일방적으로 탈퇴하고 루마니아와 폴란드에 핵무기 탑재 미사일 시스템을 배치한 것을 불안정한 행동으로 강조하면서 트럼프 행정부가 러시아와의 관계를 정상화했다고 지적합니다.

2014년 우크라이나 정부 전복에 대한 미국의 개입

미국은 2014년 우크라이나의 마이단 반란을 선동하고 선출된 정부를 전복시키기 위해 CIA와 연계된 USAID를 통해 50억 달러를 지출했습니다.

현재 국무부의 핵심 인물인 빅토리아 눌런드는 쿠데타 한 달 전 우크라이나 새 내각 인선에 관여했습니다.

러시아어를 금지하고 러시아어를 사용하는 인구에 대한 공격을 포함한 새 정부의 조치로 인해 이 지역에서는 내전과 지속적인 폭력 사태가 발생했습니다.

우크라이나와 러시아의 복잡한 역학 관계

코미디언에서 대통령으로 변신한 우크라이나의 한 후보가 평화 공약을 내세워 70%의 득표율로 당선됩니다.

우크라이나에 대한 미국의 영향력을 두려워한 푸틴은 인구 대부분이 러시아인인 크림반도를 폭력 없이 점령합니다.

평화 협정을 협상하려는 노력에도 불구하고 푸틴은 우크라이나에 군대를 파견하는 등 분쟁은 격화되고 결국 2022년 4월 평화 협정을 체결하게 됩니다.

우크라이나 분쟁에서 협상가의 역할

토니 블레어를 우크라이나에 파견한 바이든의 개입으로 평화 협정이 취소되었습니다.

우크라이나의 수석 협상가가 이 사실을 확인하면서 막후 논의를 공개했습니다.

연사는 러시아의 불법적인 행동을 인정하면서도 서방이 분쟁을 선동하는 데 중요한 역할을 했다고 주장합니다.
