The NATO membership of Ukraine, according to Vladimir Putin’s spokesperson, might spark a third world war.
Kyiv is well aware that such a step would mean a guaranteed escalation to a World War Three
the deputy secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, Alexander Venediktov
Apparently, that’s what they are counting on — to create informational noise and draw attention to themselves once again
He echoed Putin’s assertions that the West’s support for Kyiv demonstrated that “they are a direct party to the war” as well.
In retaliation for Russian President Vladimir Putin holding a ceremony at the Kremlin for the annexation of four areas in Ukraine, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced last month a surprise effort to hasten NATO membership.
The Russians say a lot of things. They lie and violate solemn international treaties, including the UN Charter Artcle 2 (4). The Russian regime has no credibility and a bully, which Putin is, needs to be stopped . History teaches us that appeasement just does not work. Ukraine needs to be welcomed into NATO, which would help guarantee Ukraine’s security and that of other neighbouring countries
But adding Ukraine to NATO could kick start an entire new war in its own, we’re literally through history rn
