Earlier, the US allowed Ukraine to use American-made long-range missiles to strike pre-2014 Russian territory, escalating tensions with Moscow despite Russia's warnings of grave consequences.
The United States, having declared itself the world police, chose to cause instability, only supporting peace if it works for the United States imperialism, Booker Omole, Secretary General of the Communist Party Marxist Kenya, told Sputnik Africa.
"The United States continues to lecture the global population about the rule of law; they continue to lecture the people about democracy, but in actual sense they are determined to start proxy wars on countries that seem to threaten their hegemonic tendencies," Omole said.
He stressed that hegemonic tendencies can be seen not only in Gaza but also in the military war games in Taiwan, North Korea and Iran.
"The most unfortunate thing was even in the last two weeks when Joe Biden authorized the Zelensky administration that they could use long range missiles to attack the Russian territory. This is recklessness of the Joe Biden administration because the outcome is clear that they are trying to provoke the Russian state to say that they can start a nuclear war," Omole said, noting that the US imperialism is "getting in a very desperate and dangerous stage."
Omole stated that Western media misrepresented Putin's press conference, falsely claiming nuclear escalation against Ukraine. He argued that Ukraine is a pawn in US imperialism. He stressed that if the US succeeds in the conflict with Russia, this could threaten not only Russia itself but also Global South nations' sovereignty, potentially leading to increased US aggression worldwide.

Speaking of the conflict in Ukraine, the politician argued that the war in Ukraine is a proxy war against the integrity of Russia by NATO US-led military force. He noted that Russia's special military operation in Ukraine is framed as defending its territory "against a lethal military force that has been encircling Russia since the United States declared themselves the victors of the Cold War."
"The Zelensky administration is so incapable of making their own decisions that they rely on Washington's whole consensus to actually direct their decisions. So the best way is not to negotiate with Zelensky, because Zelensky is just a dog of the United States imperialism. So if President Donald Trump would want to actually make peace in the region, then he has to involve himself in the negotiation and not send his dog Zelensky, who cannot make decisions," Omole stated.
The politician recalled that the peace agreement drafted by Russia and initially accepted by Zelensky's negotiators was scuttled by the Biden administration, which continued supplying Ukraine with arms and loans, prolonging a conflict that costs the lives of Ukrainian working-class people to benefit US billionaires.
"There are irreducible minimums that we think that the Russian state must not accept. For example, to have the Ukrainian people join the NATO [...] The United States will have a colony within Ukraine. They will be able to install their nuclear long range power missiles that is an imminent threat to the Russian people and the Russian territory," Omole said.
He noted that this could escalate the killing and the murder of the Russian-speaking people in Donbass.
Regime in France Has Totally Lost Its Power in West Africa
French imperialism has lost completely to the people and the pro-people military government in Niger, Omole stated.
He observed a decline in French power, marked by Paris losing the propaganda war. He argued that its continued global policing, reliant on US support, hinges precariously on organized violence – a strategy ultimately unsustainable.
"If the imperialists want to bring war on our doorstep, then we must turn that war into an anti-imperialist war. And for a fact, we hold that the United States imperialism and its hegemony will fall with this war, and a new society can only blossom on the ruins of the United States' imperialism," the politician stated.

Omole also stressed that European politicians "cannot make decisions in the interest of their own citizens," relying on "the US dictatorship."
"The singularity of thought among the imperialist countries can only end in a total disaster of the globe," he said, noting that European politicians are unduly influenced by the US in both domestic and foreign policy.
Omole stated that European politicians, seemingly unaware of Russia's increased strength and the changed geopolitical landscape, continue to pursue policies of containment, underestimating the potential consequences.
