Details: “No, because at the end of the day, Ukraine is fighting for its sovereign territory that its neighbour invaded. So, if we want to de-escalate tensions, as we’ve said from the beginning, the best way to do that is Putin can make that decision today to withdraw troops from Ukraine,” Singh stated, when asked about the potential escalation of tensions due to Ukrainian forces entering Kursk Oblast
You do know that Ukraine willingly dismantled its nuclear arsenal? And I would hardly call their country corruption-free, but that’s a different topic altogether. I think this is why it is so important for NATO to be the backbone of the Ukrainian defense efforts, as they were the voices encouraging them to rid themselves of nuclear weapons.
In exchange for assurances that Russia wouldn’t invade them. They won’t make that mistake again. And it’s not just me, NATO and organizations around the world have vouched for Ukraine’s continuing efforts to root out and remove corruption.
Not only got rid of their nukes, but in agreement with Russia that that their territory would be respected.
The nukes were their protection from Russia, and Russia stabbed them in the back after they got rid of them. Russia used the “NATO expansion” excuse, among others, as a reason to invade when it was Europe who worked to de-nuke Ukraine in the first place.
