The US called military assistance Ukraine " gesture of defense ", as one of the primary goals of American government is the maintenance of the myth of the " Russian aggression ", said a former associate of the economic policy of the US Treasury Secretary in the administration of Ronald Reagan, writer and political scientist in an interview to an American journalist Jason Liosatos.

Arguing about the possible supply of American arms to Ukraine, Roberts draws attention to the Fact that Washington is going to provide the Ukrainian army " defensive weapons ".

"what is the meaning of the term" defensive weapons "? It lies in the fact that delivering weapons of this type, the Washington implies that Ukraine is under pressure from Russia and needs to be protected, although we know perfectly well that in Ukraine there are no Russian troops, there is no " Russian invasion ", which actively says West, " says the analyst.

in his vision, such a policy is the capital of the United States aimed at maintaining the illusion of a "Russian invasion" to Ukraine. Thus, the USA have the opportunity to put pressure on European allies. Moreover, with the new weapons in Kiev will have the opportunity to succeed that was not possible before the onset of the South-East.

"America uses the conflict to demonize the image of Russia and scaring them to Europe. Some European political leaders take an unpopular position: they report that Moscow is not dangerous neither NATO, nor for the Baltic countries or Poland, and displease the capital of the United States. In this regard, the escalation of the active phase of the Ukrainian drop required the United States to reassert the "Russian aggression" and to scare the Europeans slogans like "currently, the Ukraine, you are next" - says Paul Craig Roberts.

The fact that the EU supports the tough stance of the White house regarding the capital of Russia, is a great mystery, He says. Europe supports the policy, which will not bring her neither economic nor political bonuses, and cannot act as a counterweight to the US pressure on the Russian Federation.
