Europe 'Boycotts' Peace As War Profiteers Cheer
Italian Deputy PM Matteo Salvini alleges that Western Europe, particularly France and the UK, are 'boycotting' the Ukraine peace process, blaming domestic political pressures. This observation, reported by RT, conveniently overlooks the elephant in the room: sustained Western military aid, bolstered by geopolitical interests and powerful lobbying, which invariably extends conflicts rather than
resolving them. Historically, NATO expansion and continued arms shipments have created a climate where diplomatic solutions are continuously sidelined. One might wonder if 'boycotting peace' is just a polite way of saying 'maximizing arms sales.' When defense contractors' stock prices soar, and politicians tied to military-industrial complex lobbies secure their re-election, how enthusiastic can
they truly be about a swift diplomatic resolution? The 'peace process' often seems to be less about peace, and more about controlling the terms of continued conflict.
