With panic building over a possible Ukraine war, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg says the alliance has no plans to send combat troops into Ukraine in the event that it is invaded.
That’s likely a relief to many, coming just days after President Biden warned Kiev could soon be sacked, and constant talk of sending more and more troops to Eastern Europe.
It was pretty intense, and the talk was that NATO was seriously looking at a major war in Europe. Today’s assurance is that NATO won’t be jumping into such a war.
Things were getting so intense that even Ukraine’s President Zelensky was criticizing the West for creating a “panic.” This might well have been the encouragement needed for NATO to reassure that all of those troops aren’t heading straight into a calamitous war.
That is not to say that the US and other nations are going to stop sending more troops to the Russian frontier. That buildup has been ongoing for years, and while not exactly of any productive use, those deployments are an excuse for more military spending,
All of this may ultimately be just talk, as predictions of an imminent Russian invasion often don’t amount to anything beyond an excuse to scare everybody with talk of war.
They may not “plan” to send troops to Ukraine, but they might end up doing so anyway.
Not to mention that everyone is *still* forgetting the 64,000 NATO forces that *will* be in Ukraine starting in February, along with dozens of aircraft and hundreds of ships for NATO exercises, undoubtedly intended as “spoiler” forces to complicate Russia’s operational plan for responding to a Donbass offensive.
“With panic building over a possible Ukraine war, NATO Secretary-General”…….Of course, YOU are the ones building the panic. Russia has at NO STAGE threatened to invade country 404, does not want it, is staying in its own territory and all the “imminent invasion” brouhaha has been from the USA∕UK and NATO. The “West” is so determined to follow the US∕UK Russohobia against the interests of most of the people in Europe, going on about “sanctions” ie illegal punishment of Russia for its non-aggression!!! SWIFT and gas to Europe are needed by Europe but Germany is accused of disloyalty for not following Big Brother USA no matter at what cost.
