The U.S. security apparatus is terrified that peace might break out in Ukraine. If, coming out of the ongoing Xi-Putin meeting, “there’s some sort of call for a ceasefire, well, that’s just going to be unacceptable,” said National Security Council spokesman John Kirby on Fox News Sunday, March 19.
“There’s no question that both China and Russia, and this is right out in the national security strategy, are two countries that are chafing against this international rules-based order that the United States and so many of our allies and parties have built up, since the end of World War II. They don’t—they don’t like that,” he warned viewers.
