Against Russophobia – Guillaume Faye (1)

As I have always said, Washington is playing its hand in the global poker game, at once geopolitical, economic, ideological, and polemological. But this game, brutal and clumsy, has always had catastrophic results since the Vietnam War. Provoking Russia by setting Ukraine against it after having fomented a coup d’état, all in order to subjugate Europe as a whole — such is the card laid on the table by Washington’s brilliant strategists. In the name of freedom and democracy. This calculation will fail, like all the others before it.

The current government of Kiev is entirely subject to the orders of Washington and NATO and EU leaders who are unaware of the stakes at hand. The interest of the populations of Ukraine can only rest in a peaceful relationship with Russia, not in a confrontation made up out of whole cloth from the shores of the Potomac.

If France still thought of itself as an independent power, it should never have rejoined NATO’s integrated command, which is not an egalitarian alliance, but one of submission. It resembles the Delian League dominated by Athens in Antiquity, which aimed to subjugate other Greek city-states. The Russians were quite gracious after the fall of Soviet communism and the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact.

They were promised, after German reunification, that NATO would never extend to their borders. They were lied to. If I were Russian, I would think that we are objectively witnessing a soft aggression against Russia. If I were in Mr. Putin’s place, I would be much more angry than he is. Our alliance with Russia is dictated by geography, history, and culture. The Russian threat and Russian imperialism looming over Europe are legends, fabrications of ideological propaganda. In the time of the USSR, the threat of the Red Army and the Warsaw Pact was already not credible, even in the eyes of the CIA and the Pentagon.

Even less so today, with Putin’s Russia. Moreover, Washington authorities are deceiving the American people themselves by reactivating Russophobia. Because the real threat comes from elsewhere… The central objective would obviously be not only a new French exit from NATO’s integrated command, but ultimately the disappearance of NATO and a union, both economic and military, between Europe and Russia.

For now, this is a very distant prospect. But history can accelerate. The essential thing, today, is to replace the Russophobia dictated from outside against our interests with a Russophilia consistent with our interests.

On this blog, Guillaume Faye addressed the major themes of our era with his characteristic brilliance. Russia held a privileged place there. All things considered and six years after his passing, the substance of his texts on contemporary Russia and on its president’s initiatives is both dense and agile: it allows the honest man and the potential European diplomat—that is, the diplomat of another Europe that we must nonetheless hope to see come into being—to acquire the essential and necessary foundations to be able to correctly assess Russia, its history, its political system, its essence, and to deal with it beyond all the mawkishness and ideological hysterias that have led Europe to its current decadence.

Faye was certainly the theorist of a certain European identity which, to be reborn, would have to decolonize itself and organize remigration, but he was not only that: he was a mind capable of grasping reality from many of its facets, according to a well-understood perspectivism and following a good reading of Nietzsche. The Russian inclination in Faye, however, goes far back — even though, being from western France, he never had anything to do with Russian affairs since childhood or adolescence, neither with those expressed by personalities coming directly from the Russian space, nor with the descendants of the post-revolutionary emigration to his country.
