President Zeman Tells Washington That The Czech Republic Is
Not An American ProtectorateBy Paul Craig

- As readers know, I have emphasized for years that European governments are
regarded by Washington as vassals who behave according to Washington’s wishes.
It has been 70 years–two or three generations–since former world powers, such as
Great Britain and Germany had an independent foreign policy.
In addition to this ignobility, European governments are also
vassals to the EU, so on the sovereignty front European countries are twice
damned. They simply have no sovereignty.
This is why it is so easy for Washington to spin a web of lies
and drive its vassals into a “crisis” with Russia that does not serve the
interests of Europeans. Washington’s European puppets don’t count. Only
Washington counts.
Next month is Russia’s Victory Day celebration over Nazi
Germany. Washington has told its puppets not to attend, and many including
German chancellor Merkel have complied with their overlord’s demand. But not the
President of the Czech Republic.
When the US ambassador to the Czech Republic, Andrew Schapiro,
advised President Milos Zeman to cancel his participation in the Russian
celebration, President Zeman threw the Obama fundraiser out of the presidential
castle. The Czech people, President Zeman said, were next in line for
extermination by the Nazis, and it was the Red Army that saved the Czech people.
Of course Washington and its corrupt court historians are at
work revising the history of World War II in order to cleanse the record of
Russia’s victory over Germany. Of course, everyone in Europe knows that this is
just another Washington attempt to control all explanations regardless of the
facts, but vassals are accustomed to vassalage and its humiliations. Proud
peoples are not what Europeans any longer are.
Petr Hajek, who served as an advisor to former Czech president
Vaclav Klaus, said that the US ambassador thinks he is the governor of a
conquered territory issuing orders to the locals and that previous ambassadors
from Washington had the same idea:
“President Zeman’s position rejecting the advice of the US
ambassador is the only possible adequate response. Our country’s leader has
carried himself as the President of the Czech Republic, and not as the head of a
protectorate of the United States.”
