Fierce reaction after a ‘confused’ NATO eyes China & the Middle East alongside Russia.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has charged NATO with wanting to “dominate the world” a day after 70th anniversary events of the alliance concluded in London.
“We absolutely understand that NATO wants to dominate the world and wants to eliminate any competitors, including resorting to an information war, trying to unbalance us and China,” Lavrov said from Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, while attending the 26th Ministerial Council of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE).
He seized upon NATO leaders’ comments this week, specifically Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, naming China as a new enemy alongside Russia. Stoltenberg declared at the summit that NATO has to “tackle the issue” of China’s growing capabilities

In reality, all Russia and China have to do is be patient and wait, while “nato” hands itself it’s own arse.
It might fall over from vertigo, from running in circles chasing its own tail for so long.
Then again, it might get hyperactive and speed itself up, run right pass its tail and up into its own arse, as you suggest.
He warned us all to wise up about the MIC, but did we listen? Nooooo

There’s the rub, as Shakespeare would have put it.
NATO is as NATO does. Truer words by Lavrov were never spoken.
Crimea was an existential blow to their ego. They couldn’t even return their curtains.
NATO is just one big ol’ floppy disk whose time has come and gone.
Macron was the canary in the coal mine, with a few reluctant chirps to get the ball rolling. Momentum’s a funny thing. Just watch.
Stuntedberg has locked himself into a vicious cycle of escalation. I wouldn’t much care as long as he wasn’t dragging us all along with him into his pre-pubescent world of warcraft but now that he has, I’ll call him out for the feckless finocchio that he is.
I like to think of him as a pencil-pushing yes man. To be honest, that’s all Washington will let into those token positions. We’ve all seen what happens to those in other agencies who weren’t sufficiently accommodating.
