Letting Ukraine into NATO is actually still a way to prevent Ukraine from getting nukes. That’s been an undercurrent for this whole war. Ukraine is a near-nuclear state. They were the Soviet rust belt. Ukrainians were fully involved with the Soviet weapons development, and there are still people alive in Ukraine today who worked on those bombs and know how to make them. Hell, they probably still have a lot of the old drawings and technical documentation lying around somewhere. Ukraine also operates several power and research reactors and would have no problem getting its hands on some plutonium. Realistically they could have a bomb in just a few months if they wanted to badly enough.
Hey seven countries…FUCK OFF!!!
I’m an American, and I approve my own message!
Ukraine is doing almost everything right yet these countries are still scared to adequately support them.
I have WAAAAAAAY more respect for Zelenskyy as a leader than any US president since Rosevelt.
He basically won my heart over with “I need ammunition, not a ride”.
Well I understand that they can’t approve, because of the ruling… but really, everyone should do a little bit more to support Ukraine to do a little better than extend the meat grind.
I think aid should be ramped up, but that the invitation to NATO must wait until this is finished.
Wouldn’t them joining NATO now cause a massive escalation? I thought the idea was for them to join after the war to prevent another in the future.
NATO is an organisation of consensus. So if they where to admit Ukraine into Nato but explicitly exclude the current conflict with Russia, barring nuclear/wmd escalation what issue would there be?
Also if they where to all decide they where going to admit Ukraine AND enter the fight… who would stop them?
I guess what I’m saying is… it depends.
Are they the ‘axis of evil’?
