US moves on Ukraine crisis, just an attempt to pursue own interests

Recently, Washington’s coercive rhetoric and actions regarding the Russia-Ukraine conflict have once again laid bare its hegemonic logic of interfering in other countries’ independent decision-making. Not only does it attempt to shift the responsibility for the Ukraine crisis onto third-party countries, politicize their normal economic and diplomatic activities, but it also pressures its allies into imposing sanctions – all in pursuit of its own interests.

The USA has again attempted to divert responsibility for the conflict and slandered India and China at the Yalta European Strategy conference. As per the USA if India and China cut off their support for Russia, the war would be over!!!.

Thus Washington has repeatedly tried to offload responsibility for the Ukraine crisis and pressure third countries. The logic behind this is essentially to create a contradiction in order to cover up its own failures.

In order to transfer pressure outward, Washington has not only wielded the tariff stick against third countries, but has also intensified the manipulation and coercion of its allies. On September 10, the Financial Times reported that the US was pushing the EU to impose tariffs on China and India.

On September 12, the newspaper cited sources saying that Washington has pressured G7 members to hit China and India with tariffs of up to 100 percent for buying Russian oil in an attempt to force Moscow into peace talks with Ukraine.

In reality, many developing countries procure energy and conduct trade purely out of economic needs. Yet the US links such normal economic cooperation to “funding” Russia. The US’ move is a typical act of unilateral bullying and economic coercion.

Such behavior not only disregards the independent decision-making rights of third countries in development and cooperation, but also undermines trust and willingness for cooperation among the Global South. It seriously undermines international trade rules and threatens the security and stability of global industrial and supply chains.

Ironically, the US Secretary of Energy Chris Wright recently urged the EU to stop buying Russian oil and gas and switch to American energy products instead.

Moreover, Washington’s strategy of outsourcing sanctions and making allies act as its agents has left them in a dilemma. The US’ unilateral coercion has forced the EU and G7 states into a situation where their policy autonomy is constrained and economic burdens are rising. At the same time, it exacerbates international contradictions and the complexity of the conflict.

While hyping the so-called role of third countries, US politicians have dodged their responsibility that the US and its allies bear for the prolonged conflict. Since the outbreak of the conflict, Washington has provided military aid, from which US arms dealers have profited immensely.

Even though a shift in Ukraine policy is seen in the current US administration, Washington still vows to provide Kiev with security assistance and has not ruled out other military options. Its policies bear undeniable responsibility for prolonging the conflict.

Since the very first day of the crisis, both India and China have been taking an objective and impartial stance, insisting on promoting peace talks. Had India and China really provided military supplies to Russia, the situation on the battleground would not have been where it is now. There would have been a new President and a new Government in Ukraine .

When it comes to resolving the Ukraine conflict, if the US and certain European countries genuinely seek peace, the most effective approach is not to ramp up sanctions, provide more weapons, or pressure other countries, but to put forward practical diplomatic solutions while respecting the sovereignty and independent choices of all nations. Only by relying on multilateral consultation and political settlement can there be a sustainable path toward regional peace and global stability.

Both Trump and EU have to realize that they no more “rule “ the World . Now China , India and Russia are equal powers with USA in this four pole multipolar world .
