Was not this war in Ukraine forewarned by The Economist in 2019?

There are three sides to a story: the narrative, the counter-narrative, and the third way. Let us take the current main news at the moment, which is that of the war between Ukraine and Russia.
The narrative is that Putin is a brutal war criminal while Ukraine’s president Zelensky is the hero. Many are condemning the aggression by Russia against Ukraine. Russia and the war that Putin started is to be blamed for the price spike we are seeing in gas, oil, and fuel. Putin announced that “unfriendly countries” must pay for Russian gas in rubles from April 1st. If not, Russia will halt gas contracts. In response to this gas decree, German companies “can, want, and will” pay in euros. On the other hand, Zelensky is depicted as a hero and a gentleman because his country is being attacked, with civilians being brutally murdered, while women and children fleeing from Ukraine. This is how all local and international media portals are portraying this war.
The counter-narrative is that Putin has started this war to challenge the Globalist Elite and that Russia is attacking and destroying Biolabs in Ukraine and human/child trafficking sources in Ukraine. AA reported:
“Russia’s Defence Ministry accused the US on Thursday of developing infectious diseases in Biolabs in Ukraine with the aim of spreading them to Russia disguised as natural outbreaks.
The head of the Russian Radiation, Chemical and Biological Protection Force, Igor Kirillov, presented documents at a press briefing in Moscow that were seized during Russia’s special operation in Ukraine, allegedly of Ukrainian and US origin.
According to the documents, the US had been carrying out experiments in Ukraine with viruses within the framework of projects P-382, P-444, and P-568 and one of the supervisors of this research was the head of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) office at the US embassy in Kyiv, Joanna Wintrall.
During the experiments, six families of viruses were chosen, including coronaviruses and three kinds of pathogenic bacteria — pathogens of plague, brucellosis, and leptospirosis, said Kirillov, citing the documents.
These pathogens were chosen because they have natural foci both on the territory of Ukraine and in Russia, and their use can be disguised as natural outbreaks of diseases, he said.”[1]
On the other hand, The Intercept reported that Russia is lying about this because according to Russian biologists, there is no evidence of bioweapons labs in Ukraine.[2] According to one of these biologists, Eugene Lewitin, who holds advanced degrees in biology from Moscow State University and GosNIIgenetika, a biotechnology research institute, that these documents from Ukraine do “not imply any development of biological weapons or even the use of particularly dangerous pathogens in the laboratories. The list of destroyed strains published by RIA Novosti and other Russian media outlets contains not a single, particularly dangerous strain. The list contains only strains common to microbiological and even more so to epidemiological laboratories.”
Part of this counter-narrative is that “Russia is fighting the Great Reset” or “Russia is defeating the globalists”. For those who believe this, then, in my opinion, they are first, clinging to the hope that Putin, like before him Trump, is coming to save them and that secondly, they do not fully understand what the Great Reset actually is.
If we take the image, which was a portion of the cover of The Economist’s “The World in 2019” edition [released in late 2018], we can see that under Putin’s face, there are the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse marching over Europe. According to most interpretations, the horsemen represent War, Death, Famine, and Pestilence. One of the horsemen is the “Statue of Liberty” and is wearing a facemask, an ominous prediction of Covid-19 and possibly another pandemic?
Next to Putins’ head, the words “Putin’s pipelines” are written in a lateral inverted way. In occult circles, mirror writing is often associated with Satanism and black magic, based on the reversal of symbols. And as we all know Russia’s oil pipelines have become a major issue.
As this was published in 2019, it is right to conclude that this war in Ukraine was not only caused by Russia but was also provoked by the West and the pest was harping on this provocation for too long. Is not this the third and correct explanation of this conflict?
