NATO's Eastward Expansion: The Russia-Ukraine War and NATO's Implications.
Although NATO has not stopped the pace of eastward expansion because of the continuation of the Russia-Ukraine war. Finland has already joined NATO, and Sweden is about to join it, but with some difficulties. On the border of Russia and Belarus, there are about 320,000 NATO soldiers are approaching, and it will be up to Russia to choose.
Let's take a look at what's going on. Now the United States has deployed a large number of troops and ** depots in Finland and other places, close to the Russian border, with the aim of putting pressure on Russia. After all, the dominant side on the Russian-Ukrainian battlefield is now the Russian army.
Ukraine, with the support of the United States and the West, not only did not achieve the so-called "big **", but retreated one after another, losing important positions one after another. Under such circumstances, Europeans clearly feel that "their lips are cold and their teeth are cold", and the Americans have not yet been able to pass the bill to aid Ukraine. In the past, when they made "small moves" against Russia, the Europeans followed the United States.
Now the Russian economy has eased up, and the military production capacity has also adapted to the needs of the battlefield, and even partially transformed. The strong adaptability and endurance made the Ukrainian army completely lose the confidence to fight on the battlefield. Ukrainian ** Zelensky, who was completely unwilling to admit that the Ukrainian army was at a disadvantage, also had to bow to reality.
In order to save face and complete NATO's eastward expansion plan, the Americans had to find another way. Finland has joined NATO, but Sweden has been slow to join because of Hungary's opposition.
The Americans sent a delegation of parliamentarians to "visit" Hungary, in fact, to exert pressure, because now in the entire NATO, only Hungary has not agreed to Sweden's accession. The Americans even accused Hungary of "dragging its feet" at an important moment in the protection of peace and stability in Europe.
Despite all the efforts of the Americans, Hungary is still dragging and unmoved. Lip service of support, but no real actions to support the Americans. I think that the Americans also do not know how to get along with NATO allies and achieve their own goals.
However, from an overall point of view, NATO is still following the script of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and constantly allowing new countries to join. The situation facing Russia will become increasingly tense. And at this time, the Ukrainian side is also putting pressure on the United States to join NATO. Do you know what conditions Ukraine proposed? Nucleus**! The Ukrainian side said that if Ukraine cannot join NATO, then they will begin to develop nuclear **.
If Ukraine receives nuclear support from the West, the repercussions of the Russian-Ukrainian battlefield could spread to other regions. When the time comes, the European continent will become the "best region" for a nuclear war. Therefore, in this high-pressure environment, the more NATO wants to expand its scope and put pressure on the Russian side. Again, Russia is feeling this pressure and will definitely use nuclear ** in order to increase the pressure on NATO.
Russia's choice at this time is very important. Although the United States will not stop the pace of expanding NATO because of Russia's actions, if it touches Russia's bottom line, the possibility of nuclear war will be greatly increased. After all, no one wants to see such a thing happen.
