The Origin of the Russia-Ukraine Conflict According to a 2018 Military Analysis
Some analyses suggest that the current geopolitical escalation is not an accident, but a calculated maneuver. In a public intervention in 2018, a Spanish military officer proposed a thesis that has circulated among alternative analysis circles, arguing that the United States orchestrated the conflict to contain the economic expansion of emerging powers like China and Russia.
Containing the Rise of Asian and Russian Powers
This perspective holds that current global dynamics revolve around the need to curb the growth of economies challenging the Western model. Some argue that the global health crisis, ELbichito-19, may have been a strategic factor in this reckoning. The narrative focuses on a clash of economic models, where the West faces the ascendancy of Asia and Eurasia.
Resources and Western Decline
Another axis of the discussion centers on resource management and the structure of the West itself. It posits that the decline of Western powers is not merely an economic fact, but the result of a system dominated by corporations—pharmaceutical, defense, and financial—that prioritize profit over state sustainability. This, according to some, weakens the productive fabric of nations like Spain, leaving them dependent and vulnerable to external pressures.
The View of the Military-Industrial Complex
Historical warnings about the excessive power of the military-industrial complex are revisited. Parallels are drawn with previous cautions, noting that dependence on this sector in political decision-making may be driving global tension dynamics. The analysis becomes more complex by introducing the factor of middle powers, such as India, whose position on the board is seen as critical for any emerging balance of power.
What stands out is the persistence of this thesis, raised several years ago, which continues to resonate in circles questioning the official narrative on security and world order.
