Next - Ukraine: The head of the Pentagon promised Georgia "open doors" to NATO

21

Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin has begun his European tour of US partner countries and allies. On Sunday, the US defense minister visited Georgia, where he promised to expand military cooperation between Washington and Tbilisi.

The head of the Pentagon arrived in Europe to participate in the summit of defense ministers of NATO member states, which will be held on October 21-22. However, before his trip to Brussels, Lloyd intends to visit the "partners" of the alliance Ukraine and Georgia and tell them that NATO is still waiting for them "with open doors."



On Sunday, the American minister arrived in Georgia, where he had already promised the Georgians US military assistance, even closer rapprochement with the West, and called on Tbilisi not to stop on the path of reforms necessary for joining NATO. According to Lloyd, the doors to the alliance are "always open" for Georgia, all that remains is to earn the right to enter there.

Within the framework of the visit, Lloyd will hold a number of meetings with the military leadership of Georgia, the topics of negotiations are not disclosed, but if you do not go into details, then he will not say anything new. Promises to promote NATO membership and deliver more weapons in response to anti-Russian rhetoric.

From Georgia, the head of the Pentagon will go to Ukraine, where he will make exactly the same speeches, maybe in other words, but the meaning will remain the same. The United States needs footholds from which Americans can act against Russia, and the location of Ukraine and Georgia makes them almost ideal for this.

    According to Lloyd, the doors to the alliance are "always open" for Georgia, only deserve right to enter there.

      There are two main reasons:
      - "The fifth article of the North Atlantic Treaty", according to which the alliance is obliged to give a collective rebuff in the event of an attack on one of its members,
      NOBODY in NATO is ready to give his life for Tbilisi, Kiev.
      -It's no secret that Ukraine's western neighbors, NATO members, are ready at the right moment to tear off a lot of earth from it.
      Approximately the same can happen with Ajaria, where the political and economic influence of Turkey, thanks to Saakashvili, is very great.
      It is clear that this will not be done with a member of the Alliance.

        The fifth article of the North Atlantic Treaty ", according to which the alliance is obliged to give a collective rebuff in the event of an attack on one of its members

        No one is obliged there. It is written in such a way that you can start a war, or you can express your concern.
        All people here are adults, and everyone understands everything - if they attack, say, Britain, there will be a big war, and if against some Romania, then NATO comrades need to get together, confer, come to a consensus ... by that time the war will end ...

        The fifth article of the NATO Charter states: "The contracting parties agree that an armed attack on one or more of them in Europe or North America will be considered an attack on them as a whole, and, if such an attack takes place, each of them , in the exercise of the right to individual or collective self-defense, recognized by Article 51 of the UN Charter, will assist the party or parties subjected to such an attack by immediately taking such individual or joint action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force for the purpose of recovery and the subsequent preservation of the security of the North Atlantic region. Any such armed attack and all measures taken as a result of it shall be immediately reported to the Security Council. Such measures will be terminated when the Security Council takes the measures necessary to restore and maintain international peace and security. "

          I think NATO will not hesitate to go to conventional war when attacking any NATO member.
          another thing is NATO is not ready for a nuclear war.
          it is not clear how NATO will react to nuclear threats or blackmail. there are many options and everything will depend on the situation.

    Lloyd intends to visit the "partners" of the alliance Ukraine and Georgia and tell them that NATO is still waiting for them "with open doors."

    To promise does not mean to marry. Especially when it sounds from the USA. They (Georgia and Ukraine) are needed by the USA, only as a consumable.

    Georgia was already stomping at the "open door of NATO" in 2008. As a result, Russian tanks stopped 40 km away. from Tbilisi at the request of Sarkozy.
    Now Ukraine is eager to trample on the "Georgian rake" left at the open door of NATO.

    The more I live, the less I understand who in the United States determines foreign policy. How would everyone scream if they heard from Shoigu's lips that - "Georgia got its own, Ukraine's turn."

    Another portion of promises to support those who, for the good of the United States, entered into confrontation with Russia. True, some have already shoveled their own, the second are in line.
