Lafontaine: as long as US foreign policy will not change, the world will not

Until then, as long as the main goal of U.S. foreign policy is the protection of sources of raw materials and markets in a military way, any statements about the world on the planet are nothing more than " dreams ", a German writer and former leader of the Social democratic party of Germany Oscar Lafontant for Der Tagesspiegel.

" Those countries that now support military intervention under the auspices of the U.S. integrated into American foreign policy, which since the Second world war stretches " the bloody trail of million deaths in the world, " says the writer.

Lafontant quotes George frost Kennan, American politician and one of the ideologists of U.S. foreign policy, which in 1948 was said about the need to promote only their national projects and stop to talk about vague and unreal objectives such as human rights, improving livelihoods and democratization ".

for reviews of Lafontana, one of the major national projects of the United States is the preservation of markets and access to deposits of raw materials, although the United States, regardless of the advice Kennan, a lot was said about human rights and democracy, in reality, their actions ultimately boiled down to raw materials and markets.

the writer emphasizes that Ukraine USA pursue Those goals. Lafontaine gives a few examples: for example, the American Company Chevron has received permission for the development of shale gas in the country, and in addition, the son of Vice President of the United States Joe Biden hunter sits on the Board of Directors of the Ukrainian gas organization.
