China News Service, April 4. On April 4, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) marked its 75th anniversary. However, as a relic of the Cold War, NATO, which is "over seventy years old", is still thinking about "making an appointment". It not only wants to cause chaos in Europe, but also wants to cause chaos in the Asia-Pacific and stir up unrest in the world!

  In the past two years, NATO, led by the United States, has successively admitted Finland and Sweden as new members, completing its "last piece of the puzzle to contain Russia in the Baltic Sea." The Baltic Sea has also become a "NATO lake."

  At the same time, under the guise of so-called "strengthening security cooperation," NATO is also trying to move eastward into the Asia-Pacific, hoping to win over countries such as Japan and South Korea to create an "Asia-Pacific version of NATO."

  The Cold War has long been declared over, but why is NATO, the other protagonist of the Cold War, obsessed with expansion against the trend? Its ambition and purpose are obvious: that is to seek geopolitical self-interest through large-scale military alliances and group confrontations.

  As Brabandel, head of the Belgian peace organization, warned, "NATO is increasingly becoming a global military alliance. This is a very dangerous situation."

  Former Australian Prime Minister Keating pointedly pointed out that NATO's attempt to deepen its ties with Asia may spread the "malicious poison" of "Europeans fighting each other" to Asia.

  Looking back at the "criminals" committed by NATO over the past many years, they are full of wanton wars and blatant violations of human rights. These barbaric acts have also left endless suffering for the local people:

  In Yugoslavia, the 78-day bombing killed more than 2,000 innocent civilians, injured more than 6,000 people, and displaced nearly 1 million people. Many local people are still suffering from the "legacy" of NATO wars such as depleted uranium bombs.

  In Libya, after NATO helped rebels overthrow Gaddafi's regime, the country's political and economic collapse led to conflicts between different political and armed factions. Alan Cooperman, associate professor at the University of Texas at Austin, also wrote an article saying that at least 10,000 additional people were killed after NATO intervened in Libya.

  …

  Bloody examples abound. When will NATO "stop its hand"? What is even more ironic is that at the age of 75, NATO still wants to "make an appointment" and is going further and further down the wrong road. It seems that "North" can no longer be found!

  Just this week, NATO foreign ministers held a meeting in Brussels to discuss proposals to support the Ukrainian army, which will undoubtedly add fuel to the fire between Russia and Ukraine. Issues in the Asia-Pacific region are also on the agenda. By then, they will exaggerate the so-called "threat theory" of other countries and create regional tension. This has become their usual "drama."

  People and people of insight from many countries have never stopped protesting against NATO's various dangerous actions. Recently, thousands of German people held a demonstration in Berlin to condemn NATO's strengthening of armaments and endangering peace.

  Parade organizer Barbara Majid Amin criticized, "NATO's policy of strengthening armaments endangers peace. NATO is the opposite of peace. It is not a defensive alliance, but an offensive alliance. NATO has done many things, but they are all Incorrect."

  Some protesters also called, "Compared with strengthening armaments, we should act through diplomatic channels and strengthen diplomacy. No one wants war, everyone wants development and peace."

  Facts have proven that ignoring the international community's calls for peace, development, cooperation and win-win is destined to be unpopular; the wrong approach of being obsessed with "small circles" and group politics is also destined to fail.

  At such an advanced age, wouldn’t NATO still be able to understand things and distinguish right from wrong? Give up the wrong practices of the past, stop worrying about chaos in the world, and use some "residual heat" to maintain world peace and stability!
