Joe Lauria, Consortium News: A War Only America & Britain Seem to Want
Disagreement between the U.S. and Ukrainian presidents and cautiousness by Germany and France, seems to indicate only the U.S. and U.K. are keen for war with Russia, reports Joe Lauria.
The telephone call between U.S. President Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Thursday was said to have not “gone well,” according to a senior Ukrainian official.
The official said Zelensky urged Biden to “calm down the messaging” on the situation in Ukraine and that Ukrainian intelligence did not see a Russian threat the same way the U.S. did, according to a report on CNN. It is “dangerous but ambiguous,” the official quoted Zelensky as telling Biden, and that “it is not certain that an attack will take place.”
At a news conference on Friday, Zelensky said: “They keep supporting this theme, this topic.And they make it as acute and burning as possible. In my opinion, this is a mistake.” He added: “If you look only at the satellites you will see the increase in troops and you can’t assess whether this is just a threat of attack or just a simple rotation.”

WNU Editor: Ukrainian citizens and their leaders are worried about the war in the eastern part of the country and the possibility of a Russian incursion/invasion. This has been the constant state of affairs since 2014.
What is new is the recent level of concern from certain governments in the West, the rhetoric of their leaders, and the news media that covers them.
So we now have this disconnect where President Biden and UK PM Johnson are predicting a Russian invasion soon, and Ukrainian President Zelensky saying "not really"
So who is right?
Zelensky's political weakness is the economy, and talk of war tends to kill economic activity.
President Biden and UK PM Johnson need a diversion from their own domestic problems. The threat of war is a good way to change the narrative.
Russian President Putin also needs a change in his narrative as Covid and economic problems continue in his country.
My money is on Zelensky.
