As the largest superpower in the world today, the deployment of US military forces around the world has always been highly concerned by the outside world. Just recently, news began to spread that the United States intended to deploy nuclear weapons in some Asian ally countries, It has aroused strong anxiety in the international community.
This approach will undoubtedly further aggravate the already tense situation in the Asia Pacific region, and may even completely destroy the fragile peace pattern in the region. What is more shocking is that Russia openly asks whether the United States really intends to take this action? So, does this indicate that a new storm of major power confrontation and nuclear confrontation is coming?
Recently, the United States attempted to deploy nuclear weapons in Japan and South Korea in Asia, which really caused an uproar in the international community. In particular, Russia directly "shines its cards" on the United Nations, openly questioning the United States in front of the world, The United States is required to give a direct reply to the Russian side on the question of not deploying or assisting in the research of nuclear weapons in the territory of its allies.

This is undoubtedly a "heavy blow" from Russia to the US. At that time, Yevstignieva, the Deputy Permanent Representative of Russia to the United Nations, was very tough, Pointing directly to the signal that the United States releases "nuclear cooperation" with Japan and South Korea, Russia has aroused great concern. Therefore, the Russian side naturally requires the US side to make a positive response on whether to deploy or study nuclear weapons in the territory of its allies.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov also "opened fire", Immediately warn the US side or plot to provoke tension in Asia to the greatest extent, It may even ask allies to accept the deployment of medium and short range missiles on their land. With this serious tone, the Russian side probably grasped some "hidden" secret plans of the US side.

In the face of such straightforward "slapping" by the Russian side, the United States is clearly in a dilemma. If we admit the plan to deploy nuclear weapons, it will be tantamount to self defeating and becoming a provocator of global peace; We should deny that our strategic interests in the Asia Pacific region will be damaged, and we can no longer deploy nuclear weapons to Asia. No matter which way, it is very difficult.
In the face of such straightforward questions from the Russian side, the US government is really "blocking the heart" this time. How could the Russian side be so confident that it could force the US side to question three times? Is it possible that Russia has obtained conclusive evidence that the United States wants to deploy nuclear weapons in Asia?
The reason why the Russian side is so aggressive, It is likely that they have learned in advance the relevant information of the United States on the preparations for the deployment of nuclear weapons to Japan, South Korea and other Asian allies. When the Russian side mastered these evidences, it immediately launched this round of fierce "strike" offensive against the US side.
Now the United States is in a passive position, knowing that the Russian side has its own "insider" handle. however, Americans have a high regard for the origin and are cunning. Even now, they still refuse to admit their mistakes.
In fact, the intention of the United States to deploy nuclear weapons in the Asia Pacific region is not out of nowhere, but stems from some of its practical difficulties in the region. As everyone has seen, with the rapid rise of China and other emerging powers, the dominance and influence of the United States in the Asia Pacific region are increasingly challenged and weakened.
It can be seen from recent years that the United States has been frustrated and suffered a lot on these hot issues, whether on the peninsula, in the Taiwan Strait or in the South China Sea. It repeatedly "calls the wind and calls the rain" on the Korean nuclear issue, but is unable to stop the development of nuclear weapons in North Korea; Despite repeated bravado on the Taiwan issue, it cannot stop the development trend of cross-strait relations; On the South China Sea issue, it was hit back hard by China, which caused its prestige in the hearts of allies to be greatly damaged.
It can be said that the United States, which used to "call the wind and call the rain" in the Asia Pacific region, is on the verge of "dead end". Watching their leadership and influence decline, Washington's top officials naturally felt extremely anxious. In order to maintain its final base in the Asia Pacific region and safeguard its own strategic interests, the United States naturally has to play 18 kinds of martial arts.
The strategic deterrence and leverage of nuclear weapons deployment is undoubtedly a good choice. Once the situation in the Asia Pacific region is really becoming more and more unfavorable to the United States, they can take out the card of nuclear weapons as soon as possible to "send an ultimatum" to Asian countries. However, this "card" was torn by Russia in advance this time, which really embarrassed the United States.
so to speak, If the United States really insists on deploying nuclear weapons in the Asia Pacific region, it will undoubtedly bring extremely serious harm and impact to the peace pattern of the whole region and even the world.
This approach will undoubtedly greatly escalate tensions in the Asia Pacific region and lead the whole situation into an uncontrollable "nuclear confrontation". In the event of strategic mistakes, the whole region may be plunged into continuous turbulence, or large-scale military conflicts may be triggered, It has caused incalculable consequences.
Take several U.S. allies in the Asia Pacific region for example, For example, once Japan and other countries accept the nuclear weapons stationed by US troops, it is a flagrant violation of their "three non nuclear principles", This will immediately lead to strong dissatisfaction and condemnation from neighboring countries, and may even lead to isolation. For South Korea, the situation is the same, and North Korea may take the opportunity to threaten to launch a pre emptive strike.
What's more, as a major power in the Asia Pacific region, China naturally enjoys a voice that cannot be ignored in regional affairs. Such obstinate deployment of nuclear weapons will undoubtedly aggravate and escalate the strategic mutual suspicion and confrontation between China and the United States. By then, both sides will probably be dragged into the dangerous quagmire of a world war.
Therefore, the US is undoubtedly playing with fire, We certainly hope that the US side can understand the danger of doing so, think twice before acting, and never bet on regional or even global peace. Otherwise, once the disastrous consequences are really brewing, I dare not imagine.
This event undoubtedly reaffirmed the complexity of the current world pattern, and the road to peaceful development is very bumpy. Although the United States still harbors the arrogant dream of hegemony, we have reason to believe that as long as all countries in the world unite and work together, they will be able to overcome the adverse current of peaceful development, We will maintain long-term stability in the region and the world.
As a matter of urgency, we should be highly alert to the US nuclear weapons deployment attempt and condemn its wanton provocation. At the same time, We also call on the US side to put down its unrealistic dream of nuclear weapons, We should cherish this precious period of opportunity for peaceful development.
Only on the basis of mutual understanding and mutual respect, adhere to the concept of "inclusiveness", meet frankly, seek common ground while reserving differences, Only in this way can we avoid repeating the mistakes of the arms race and truly create a peaceful world free of nuclear weapons for future generations.
