Are Wars Autocratic? Or Are Democracies? From the US Proxy War Against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan To The US and NATO Proxy War Against Russia in Ukraine

  President Joe Biden stood with President Zelensky in Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, a year after the Ukraine war, and told him, “Kyiv is standing and Ukraine is standing, democracy is standing.” President Biden said, “It’s between democracy and autocracy. It is a fight.” Then President Biden went to Poland, which is a neighbor of Ukraine and thousands of Ukrainians are in refugee camps here, seeing and hearing President Biden Ukraine and then in Poland, 1980’s Afghanistan came to the fore when Soviet troops came to Afghanistan. President Jimmy Carter’s national security adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski, was a Polish American and he was the first to meet the Afghans at the Pakistan-Afghan border, and said to them “Your Cause is right and God is on your side.” Then President Reagan’s Vice President George H. Bush came to the Pakistan-Afghan border and addressed the Afghan refugees and assured them that the United States would help them liberate Afghanistan from communist forces. It has been thirty years since the end of the Cold War, but the United States is still walking through the same streets of the Cold War. The only interesting thing was that the Ukrainians were in the government and in Communist Party in the Soviet Union. And was their decision to send troops to Afghanistan. Now the Ukrainians are at war with Russia. The US has left the Afghan war and joined the war with the Ukrainians against Russia. The only break between these two wars was that America orbited the moon.

  America has always been quick to start wars. On starting the Iraq war, the Bush administration said that we will do surgery in Iraq and come back. But it took 14 years for America to come back from Iraq. While attacking Afghanistan, it was said that they would eliminate the Taliban in Afghanistan and return. But it took twenty years to return from Afghanistan. In Yemen, President Bush launched a war against terrorism. Eight years later, President Bush handed over the war in Yemen to President Obama to end the war. Then eight years later, President Obama handed over this Yemen war to Saudi Arabia, saying they would end the rest of the war. The war against terrorism was America’s war. Terrorists had attacked America, but more than a dozen countries had become victims of America’s war on terror and now they will keep fighting with terrorists, perhaps, forever. Those who wage wars and resolve conflicts through wars are also autocrats. Wars have no place in a democracy. Democracy is related to human rights and wars violate human rights.

  Until recently, Ukraine had a democratic government and there was no conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the relationship between them was very cordial. From the second day after the US-brand democracy came to Ukraine, the relations between Russia and Ukraine have been strained. To make tension among them permanent, they started selling weapons to Ukraine. Ukraine was on the path to autocracy. When weapons Arrive, they were also used, and these weapons were being used in Eastern Ukraine to suppress the rebellion of Ukrainian Russians. These Russians wanted autonomy for themselves. The US-trained Ukrainian army killed 14 thousand of Russians in the operation against rebellious Russians. With Russia’s efforts Germany, France, the European Union, and the US made the Minsk agreement with Ukraine to end the civil war in Eastern Ukraine. In which it was asked to give autonomy to the Russians in Eastern Ukraine. This agreement was signed by all, including Ukraine. But this agreement was not implemented by the government of Ukraine. President Putin continued to ask the Ukrainian government to implement the Minsk agreement until the end. French President Emmanuel Macron also agreed with President Putin that the Minsk agreement should be implemented.

  The Ukraine war could have been avoided if the Minsk agreement had been implemented if Volodymyr Zelensky had not been the president of Ukraine. If NATO does not throw its leg in the Ukraine-Russia conflict if the senators of the US democracy do not demand their administration to provide immediate weapons to Ukraine and instead, insist on a peaceful solution within the limits of democracy. But autocracy is preferred over democracy. The use of arms and war is autocracy. The Biden administration and the European Union had said that the Ukraine war ends in three months, but this war has now come to a year.
