Kursk Invasion: NATO‘S FINAL Mistake | Pascal on DMP Podcast

This is a joint production with @demoliendomitosdelapolitica (Demolishing Political Myths). E. Bistoletti interviewed Pascal about his views on Ukraine’s counter-invasion into Russia. The Spanish version of the Podcast is available here: The Kursk invasion is interpreted in some corners as a Russian trap but considering the Moscow’s narrative about the war, this is unlikely. It probably is the desperate but unexpected (as well as counter-productive) act of the losing side of a war to provoke the other side into something that might draw in third powers. What makes this act so dangerous, is the fact that it couldn’t happen without NATO equipment and NATO intelligence and, hence, NATO’s consent. Therefore, what this proofs to Russia is that NATO indeed is willing to invade Russia’s heart-land and that it will be only a matter of time until even more lethal weapons will be used against it. The wheel of escalation is spinning and the only hope the Ukrainians have left is to bait Russia into an attack that would eventually bring the full power of NATO—including nuclear weapons—into the battle field.
