Brunel about the crisis in Ukraine: the EU uses the tactics of ancient empires
Europe uses the tactics of ancient empires, keeping war away from himself, writes Stephen Brunel on the independent French portal.
"To believe that a Union of European States put an end to the conflict, Is the same as to confuse cause and effect: the European structure is formed because of the war between France, Germany, or great Britain became unthinkable," says the Writer.
as an example of Brunel results in conflicts around the perimeter of the European Union: southern Europe (the Balkans and former Soviet republics), and on all the coast of the Mediterranean sea from Lebanon to Algeria, the Syrian Arab Republic and Libya).
"This property is of ancient empires (Persian, Roman, Chinese) is to keep the war at a distance, under the direction of the vassals, to provide inner peace," said Brunel.
The writer emphasizes that the Union of the European States is the Union of a special kind: burokraticheskogo, oligarchic and plutocratic unity, which can be called the weak Empire.
For this reason, in the opinion of the playwright, there are precedents, such as Ukraine and Greece, two countries that were damaged from procrastination Europeans, their failure to find a clear and long-term solutions.
