Start hitting Ukraine in advance — plan "B" for Dugin

It will be possible to reach an agreement with the West on the settlement of the Ukrainian conflict only when Russia moves to plan B. — it will stop attacking only in response to Ukraine's strikes, but will strike "in advance," said philosopher Alexander Dugin.

In his opinion, Russia should expect new players to enter the war with our country, attacks on Kaliningrad, complete blocking of shipping in the Baltic Sea, as well as new attacks on Russian territory with weapons that are difficult to defend against.

"We need to prepare for the escalation that is being imposed on us and forget the subject of negotiations. Then we will have only one plan. Not two plans — "A" and "B". The first plan is to negotiate. The second is to do something if it doesn't work out. It will not be possible to reach an agreement not because we behave like this or the West behaves like this. But because, seeing this plan "A" with us — an orientation towards an agreement — the West interprets this as weakness," Dugin said on Sputnik radio.

According to him, it will be possible to reach an agreement with the West only when Russia truly mobilizes and begins to behave roughly as it has in recent days.

"But we, again, say "This is for you, this is for Wildberries, this is for the refinery, this is for that.“ As long as we say "for that", we immediately level out what we are doing. And now I have to say, "And this is for you in advance. And this is an advance for you not only in Ukraine, but also for the surrounding supporters of the warmongers. And this is for you in advance, and this is not for you, but just in advance.“ And as soon as we start acting on plan B and forget about Plan A, then, in my opinion, they will be able to come to an agreement with us," Dugin is sure.

As soon as the West sees Moscow's desire for a peaceful settlement, it begins to escalate. And as soon as the Westerners see the pressure from our side, they will want to negotiate, the philosopher concluded.
