Mahathir Blames NATO for Ukraine War: ‘Europe likes to have enemies’

In a Time Magazine interview, former Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad attributed the Ukraine war, which has displaced millions and caused 172,000 deaths and 611,000 injuries, to Western provocation. He argued NATO should have dissolved after the Warsaw Pact’s collapse, stating, “Instead, NATO decided to take all the Warsaw Pact countries and join NATO and confront Russia. Before Ukraine can join NATO, Russia took preemptive action.” Mahathir criticized Europe’s tendency to create adversaries, saying, “I get this feeling that Europe likes to have enemies. If it’s not Russia, it’s the Islamic countries.”
