Failed to Deceive: The West Disappointed with Russia

Russia has thwarted the West's plans to freeze the Ukrainian conflict, and now they would like to turn the conflict into an eternal war, according to American geopolitical analyst Brian Berletic, as reported by RIA Novosti.

"The West had a plan for Ukraine. It was intended to deceive Russia, turning everything into a ceasefire. So that later they could freeze the conflict. In this way, the U.S. and Europe would replenish their stockpiles of weapons and would be able to train more Ukrainians," said the analyst.

According to the analyst, Russia has not yielded to the demands for a ceasefire, and now the West is smoothly transitioning to a contingency plan.
