Gilbert Doctorow and I have pointed out that Putin’s effort to prevent wider war has caused wider war. The White House’s cancellation of the meeting of Trump with Putin in Hungary is powerful evidence of Putin’s strategic blunder of pretending that the war the West has declared on Russia was merely a limited military operation in Donbas to rescue the Russian populations there from massacre by the US trained and equipped Ukrainian neo-nazi army. Trump cancelled the meeting, because Putin refused a cease fire that left the root cause of the conflict unaddressed.
The root cause of the conflict is the West’s hostility toward Russia, The Wolfowitz Doctrine says that the principle goal of US foreign policy is to prevent the rise of any country that could serve as a constraint on American unilateralism, In addition to Russia and China, declared as American enemies, there is on a regional basis Iran.
Thus, America’s three enemies.
The root cause of the conflict is America’s hegemonic foreign policy ideology.
