Nato members have pledged their support for an “irreversible path” to future membership for Ukraine, as well as more aid.
While a formal timeline for it to join the military alliance was not agreed at a summit in Washington DC, the military alliance’s 32 members said they had “unwavering” support for Ukraine’s war effort.
Nato has also announced further integration with Ukraine’s military and members have committed €40bn ($43.3bn, £33.7bn) in aid in the next year, including F-16 fighter jets and air defence support.
The bloc’s Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said: “Support to Ukraine is not charity - it is in our own security interest.”
It was a regular question that doesn’t fit within your narrow view of “US bad everybody evil because puppets of US”
Okay, that’s quite the straw man, but now I get your confusion, because you’re making up arguments you think I’m making. I never said “everybody evil because puppets of US”.
I made a single sentence criticizing NATO (because often America is bad believe it or not and they’re the main superpower behind it). Everything else you’re assuming or making up. People can believe other non-US countries, including Russia or China or other Western countries, can be bad, can support Ukraine in their war against Russia, and still think that NATO is an arm of US imperialism. Some people are capable of holding these multiple non-conflicting thoughts in their head at the same time. It’s not whataboutism, because it’s related to NATO the whole topic of this thread, it’s just adding to the conversation and exploring the nuance of it all. But I forgot that NATO and the US can do no wrong and is a perfect angel at all times, so that’s my fault for saying anything. Would you feel better if I said Western imperialism so it wasn’t so specific to the US, though?
No you said “Nato is an arm of american imperialism” which literally means “everybody evil because puppets of US”.
That’s a huge simplification of what that means. But if you’re going to deny the long history of NATO being an extension of American power and a way to legitimize their military conflicts around the world from Libya to Iraq, then there isn’t really anywhere to go next in this conversation.
