As the conflict between Russia and Ukraine continues to escalate, the United States has begun to constantly provoke Russia in order to support Ukraine. Just a few days ago, Russian airspace monitoring equipment discovered an aerial target approaching the Russian border over the waters of the Barents Sea. After identification, it was found that the aerial target was two B-52H strategic bombers of the US Air Force. Considering that the United States is eager to use Ukraine to achieve the goal of defeating Russia, it is not ruled out that this move is to support Ukraine and make the Zelensky government more confident to continue to confront the Putin government. The problem is that the US bombers violated the Russian border at the time when Biden announced his withdrawal from the election. If the Biden administration wants to seek more votes for itself by exacerbating the tension, why did it announce its withdrawal four months before the election?
You know, Trump, who is most likely to become the new president, has long stated that the first thing he did after being elected was to urge an end to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Although it is not known whether Trump's "promise" was given for the purpose of running for president, at least for now, the violation of the Russian border by American bombers does not seem to be something Biden and Trump did for the purpose of running for president. So why did the American bombers violate the Russian border? What is the purpose of the United States? Are the strategic bombers carrying nuclear warheads? If they are carrying nuclear warheads, it would be really terrible. The military strength of both Russia and the United States is very strong. Once a misjudgment occurs and a gun is accidentally fired, the consequences will be catastrophic.
It is reported that the Russian air defense forces dispatched a MiG-29 and a MiG-31 fighter jets as soon as they found the US bombers approaching the Russian border, as if the Russian air defense forces would take action as long as the US military aircraft approached the Russian border. Of course, given the style of Russia's "fighting nation", the country is very likely to do so, but having said that, it is still hoped that both sides can communicate calmly in time to avoid accidental shootings. In the current tense situation, the US sending bombers close to the Russian border is undoubtedly not an ordinary flight training or patrol mission.
In recent times, the global geopolitical situation has become increasingly complex, including the Ukrainian issue and the tension in the Asia-Pacific region. It can be said that all signs indicate that the United States is trying to put pressure on Russia through military action. In short, this series of reactions is like the opening of a big drama, which is affecting the nerves of countries around the world. If it is not a dangerous action taken for the upcoming presidential election, then we have to think about whether the two countries are using this high-risk military action to send some kind of political signal to their own countries.
For example, from the perspective of the United States, the country may be consolidating its leading position in international affairs through this action and showing its allies and partners its determination to confront Russia. From the perspective of Russia, Putin has waited for this day. He responded to the approach of the US bombers as soon as possible, perhaps to demonstrate his defense capabilities and strategic counterattack determination, and to enhance the confidence of the domestic people.
Although he does not want to escalate the situation, Putin is not a fearful person. Of course, there are other possibilities, but no matter what the possibility is, such a confrontation is a prelude to a wider conflict. Again, I hope that the two sides can communicate and dialogue effectively. Once the situation gets out of control, it will lead to unpredictable consequences.
