Second "Marshall Plan" - France reveals why United States is helping Ukraine

The US has already spent as much money on Ukraine as it was needed to rebuild Europe after the World War II, Le Figaro columnist Renaud Girard writes. The whole point, he believes, is the emergence of a strong competitor of America on the international arena. The West is literally afraid of the restoration of the power of the Russian Empire and in every possible way tries to prevent the strengthening and development of Moscow.

And the White House also remembers the precepts of former national security adviser Brzezinski, who argued that in order to ensure U.S. geopolitical dominance, it was necessary to break up Russia and Ukraine.
