It seems like every week some western journalist proclaims the beginning of a "new cold war" between the United States and the Russian Federation. As proof of this, they point to the US/EU-backed fascist putsch in Kiev, NATO military gesticulations on Russia’s western frontiers, the continued US escalation of hostilities against Russian ally Syria, US objections to BRICS, among other items on a long list.
The Russophobia nourishing US and western belligerence is not a "new cold war". It’s an older pre-1914 type of conflict, and we all know where that led.
