The US’ plan as seen from Moscow:
1. It starts with a maximum offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
2. Followed by maximum international pressure on Russia as a result of the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to sign an agreement to freeze the war, and open so-called peace talks.
3. The signing of a truce. – That would be used during the US election campaign.
4. Meanwhile deliveries of powerful weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, strengthening their military potential.
5. The opening of a new stage of the war.
6. The goal is to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia. The West is aiming to take control of the Donbass and Crimea.
7. Exposing Russia’s refusal to accept West’s conditions as super-rigid.
8. Transferring the conflict to a new phase in order to finally subdue Russia.
9. Partition of Russia, its complete elimination as a large independent country.
This is the long-term planning of the war in Ukraine as envisioned by the US planners.

The Plan for the New Middle East was exactly concocted like the above one. We all know what happened when they entered Syria as the weakest link before Iran in 2011! It turned out to be their graveyard. There is a New Middle East, but not the one the neo-crazies had planned. It’s a Middle East where the hegemon has lost its influence to local powers. China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Iran and the UAE are fully in charge.
