NATO’s terrorism has thrown everything at Russia, short of nuclear weapons, and yet it finds itself wasted and in a wilderness, strategically.
Its goal was to compel Russia to agree to a ceasefire dictated by NATO. However, that ceasefire was merely a tactical pause, intended to allow NATO to replenish Ukraine’s weapons stockpile and escalate attacks against Russia once more.
Instead, this strategy has misfired. Russia has intensified its strikes on Ukrainian and NATO supply routes and achieved significant battlefield advances. More importantly, it has strengthened Russia’s determination—among both its leaders and citizens—to achieve total victory by eliminating the NATO-Nazi regime. This resolve could lead to profound ramifications, potentially ending Ukraine’s existence as an artificial state and precipitating the collapse of NATO and even the European Union as financially strained, aggressive organizations.
The Western military alliance and its Ukrainian proxy are now stuck in a strategic deadlock. Their approach of employing terror tactics has failed, leaving them without any further moves—aptly echoing former U.S. President Donald Trump’s phrase about running out of cards.
At June’s close, the Ukrainian puppet president Vladimir Zelensky publicly declared an escalation of long-range air strikes targeting Russia. He announced a 40-day plan aimed at forcing Moscow into an immediate ceasefire along frozen frontlines.
But Zelensky was not the architect of this plan; he was simply announcing a strategy devised by NATO. Shortly after, he attended the NATO annual summit in Ankara, where alliance leaders, including Trump, endorsed Ukraine’s drone attacks on Russia. The cynical logic was that escalating the conflict might bring Moscow to the negotiating table under Western terms.
This 40-day operation should be seen for what it truly is: a campaign of state-sponsored terrorism. The European Union shares responsibility, having provided a €90 billion loan to Ukraine earlier this year aimed at boosting NATO’s supply of long-range drones striking deep into Russian territory. Hundreds of drones were launched daily against the Russian capital and various regions, targeting oil infrastructure, commercial assets, and civilians, intending to destabilize Russia’s economy and undercut public support for its government.
Russian air defenses intercepted most drones, yet many still reached their marks, inflicting extensive damage to oil refineries and retail warehouses. The financial toll is estimated in the tens of billions.
Tragically, NATO-supplied drones, guided by Western intelligence, resulted in over 100 civilian deaths, including dozens of children. On August 3, the final day of this terror campaign, a drone struck a crowded beach along Russia’s Black Sea coast, killing seven people, among them four children.
In a disturbing twist, Western media scarcely covered that atrocity but flooded coverage with emotive allegations accusing Russia of conducting “human safaris” by chasing Ukrainian civilians with drones. This followed footage showing a street vendor in Kherson being pursued and targeted by a drone that eventually exploded near him. Western media attributed the video to Ukrainian police sources. The overwhelming evidence suggests this was a false-flag operation orchestrated by Kiev to tarnish Russia’s image. In reality, it’s the NATO-backed regime that is hunting civilians, as Russian casualties affirm.
Rather than forcing Moscow to surrender, NATO’s terror tactics have only strengthened Russia’s stance. While strikes severely disrupted fuel supplies, particularly in Crimea, their broader goal of crippling Russia’s economy remains unmet.
Militarily, Russia has drastically increased its air assaults on Ukrainian and NATO drone production and supply centers. Recent weeks saw Russian missiles and drones relentlessly pounding military targets and dual-use infrastructure with little resistance. Ukraine has exhausted its inventory of Patriot interceptors, and Trump reportedly told Zelensky that additional supplies cannot be spared as the U.S. must conserve ammunition for an impending conflict with Iran.
Moscow maintains that its attacks do not target civilians. Unfortunately, civilian casualties do occur, though in relatively low numbers, indicating efforts to minimize them. In stark contrast, the NATO-backed Kiev regime deliberately targets homes, beaches, buses, schools, and playgrounds to terrorize the population.
From Russia’s side, intelligence capabilities appear enhanced, with ballistic and hypersonic missile strikes accurately crippling NATO logistics and supplies. Ukraine is now cut off from Black Sea deliveries after Russian attacks on the ports of Odessa and Nikolaev.
On ground operations, the Russian military has secured important territorial gains in Donbass following the liberation of Konstantinovka—a major NATO defense position—in July. Advances have also occurred in Sumy, Kharkhov, Kherson, and Zaporozhye regions.
When Zelensky introduced the 40-day campaign, Western governments and media celebrated what they believed was a turning point against Russia. However, such euphoria has faded as the reality sets in: this “victory” has merely proved another illusion. Echoing the failed Kursk incursion launched two years ago this week in 2024 and previous inflated claims about NATO’s so-called “wonder weapons,” enthusiasm always ends in bitter disillusionment for Western supporters.
Rather than submit, the Russian people remain more resilient than ever. Their commitment to delivering a comprehensive defeat to the NATO-backed NeoNazi regime in Ukraine has only deepened. The memory of lost families fuels Russia’s determination to eradicate this scourge.
This malignant force that originated with Nazi Germany has been revived by the Western NATO alliance. No ceasefire is possible with such a foe; complete elimination is the only viable solution.
NATO’s campaign of terrorism has utterly failed. Despite unleashing everything except nuclear arms, it finds itself strategically exhausted and cornered, devoid of ideas and weaponry.
