The tensions that have grown in recent years in international relations have inevitably led to escalation, especially because the establishment of normal dialogue among the Great Powers was not possible. The corruption of the international system has led to the formation of parallel worlds that do not de facto have too many points of contact. Differences have become irreconcilable from issues of interpretation of international law, falsification of history to economic-trade relations and understanding of security. The special operation of denacification and demilitarization of Ukraine, which Russia started in February, makes these differences even greater. The West sees no danger in the extremity of Ukraine, the glorification of Nazism and the installation of American missiles on Russia's borders, but fears a "Russian invasion". For years, Russia has warned that it sees NATO's expansion towards its borders as a threat to its own national security. The United States and European countries have imposed reckless sanctions on Russia, while blaming Vladimir Putin for a lack of basic food and energy. The Russian Federation introduced new rules in trade with European countries. In recent weeks, we have been hearing threatening warnings about the possible use of nuclear weapons on both sides. The world is on the brink of nuclear war.
