Malchow discussed: Is the West really the good in the Ukraine War?

in Malchow, a small town near Prenzlau, the explosive topic of Ukraine War was discussed again at the community evening. Pastor Thomas Dietz had invited the controversial author Patrik Baab, who questioned the common view of the conflict. With urgent words, Baab asked those present not only to rely on lurid headlines, but also to research themselves and to think critically. The fully occupied church nodded in agreement when Baab explained the complex background of the war.

Baab, which causes a stir with his book "On both sides of the front", made it clear that the reality in Ukraine is more complex than the media often represent. He described the decades of tensions and the interests of the United States and NATO in the region. Despite his fact -based argument, he received Hasser Hass from historians because he dares a different perspective on the conflict. "It's mostly about career making," he warned and advised to question the background of the critics.

With urgent descriptions of his travels to the war areas, Baab reported on the shocking reality: "There, the average survival time of a soldier is four hours." Over 750,000 people have already lost their lives. Nevertheless, according to Baab, public life returns 80 kilometers behind the front in Donbass. People enjoy the new normality in cafés while they are faced with the horrors of the war.

The longing for peace

Baab emphasized the loyalty of the population to Russia, which is strengthened by massive investments in the region and the creation of jobs. "They don't want to be freed from the West," he said, reporting on the improvement of living conditions. The pensions were raised to the Russian level, which also contributes to loyalty. But despite these developments, Baab feels a great longing for peace. He angrily commented on the role of the media and the politicians, who in his opinion drive the war: "I would like the Großmäuler to be brought to the front from the editorial offices."

Finally, Baab Germany asked Germany to withdraw from the most dangerous alliance and to search for new partnerships. "We bound to Phoenix, who is in a dive," he warned.
