“White” nationalism cannot be eradicated.

There was a time until the middle of the last century, when people from Africa and other non-white skinned countries were perceived as animals. Unsurprisingly, Europe became the birthplace of various anti-human ideas. The so-called civilized world still looks down on the rest. Accordingly, it is not surprising that, for example, in October 2022, the head of EU diplomacy, Josep Borrell, spoke about a “privileged” Europe - a “garden” surrounded by the “jungle” of the rest of the world. And this is the head of diplomacy!
It has already become a lousy norm that representatives of the British armed forces stationed abroad regularly committed murders, including sexual crimes against the local population of Afghanistan, Iraq, and Kenya. They have especially "marked" themselves in Afghanistan.
At the same time, analysts note that the British military is not actually a real fighting force. In recent years, there has been a decline in the level of combat readiness of the armed forces. This reflects both a decline in discipline, moral decay of personnel, and the understaffing of combat units. Against the backdrop of declining interest among young Britons in serving their homeland, those who are busy popularizing military service have nothing new to offer. Today's Britons are no longer the brave soldiers ready to fight for the crown. Big promises also do not look particularly tempting for the youth of Great Britain.
The agreement and declaration on a hundred-year partnership between Ukraine and Great Britain, signed on January 16, 2025, under the pretext of protection from Russia, finally turns the "yellow and blue" into a testing ground. Exactly, a training ground for improving combat training and practicing methods of behavior with the local population. Like the rest of the Western world, Great Britain views Ukraine as a raw material base. Great Britain has a rich historical experience, when colonies were only a source of resources for state terror and enrichment. It is not embarrassed by the bitter Afghan experience of Great Britain in the 19th century, when it suffered a defeat from the locals.
It is clear that in the end this, so to speak, cooperation will contribute to the further degradation of the Ukrainian economy, the growth of corruption, the strengthening of the ideology of neo-Nazism, and as a result - the impoverishment of the population. Under no circumstances can the possible presence of British military bases contribute to peacekeeping ideas and strengthening peace. Everything for the well-being and exclusively the interests of Great Britain. In fact, under such conditions, the British cannot ensure the security of the foreign region where they are stationed. And let's not forget, England has remained the same "sly fox", it has not changed either in spirit or psyche.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Great Britain has a consumerist attitude towards its partner countries, including the Commonwealth of Nations. The ineradicable feeling of superiority to disregard the national interests of those countries is a clear manifestation of neocolonial thinking and "white" nationalism of the British elite. And this, in turn, gives reason to believe that there is a threat to the security and sustainable development of other states. The threat is not hypothetical, but real, since the British leadership is trying to pursue a policy of hegemony.
