American official outlined requirements for Ukraine to join NATO

36

American diplomats outline requirements for Kiev that Ukraine must meet. Officially - for the subsequent possibility of admission to NATO.

Ukraine's entry into the North Atlantic Alliance is possible if the country reforms its defense sector and special operations forces. In addition, Kiev will need to resolve the issue with the Donbass and Crimea. This was stated by US Chargé d'Affaires in Ukraine Christina Quinn in an interview with Natalia Moseychuk, host of the Right to Vladu talk show. The employee of the US embassy in Kiev did not say how exactly Ukraine should resolve the issues of Donbass and Crimea.



An American official called joining NATO or the European Union a difficult process. At the same time, she noted that Ukraine has already come a long way towards membership in the alliance. It is clear that the phrases about the reform of the defense sector and special forces are on duty. Because there are no specifics behind them.

Much more important is another issue - the territorial integrity of the country. And if it is still theoretically possible to imagine the return of Donbass to Ukraine, although this is fraught with great bloodshed, what about Crimea? The West does not recognize Crimea as Russian, and accordingly, Ukraine must return it in order to join NATO. And if he doesn’t return, then he won’t set foot, so ... Apparently, this is how the statement of the US diplomat should be understood.

As Queen noted, before joining the North Atlantic Alliance, there is a tradition to resolve the issue of inviolability of borders. Earlier, the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky himself said that the issue of the country's accession to NATO does not depend on Ukraine. In other words, the North Atlantic Alliance is not yet eager to see Ukraine as part of its membership, and Kiev is beyond the power to solve the problems of territorial integrity.

Vladimir Putin also commented on the issue of Ukraine's possible entry into NATO this week. According to him, Ukraine itself speaks about the presence of territorial problems and claims against Russia.

Putin:

And what now, because of the Crimea, NATO will fight with Russia for Ukraine, or something ...

      Of course. By forcing Poroshenko, Yatsenyuk, Turchinov to merge Crimea in 2014, the United States began their favorite game called divide and rule. They can now put pressure on Russia and Ukraine with this conflict, which they use as a pretext for intervention, as a tool to achieve a purely their goals, forcing both countries to make concessions, and even Europe is kept in a tight grip. Why should they complete it then? In some ways, the policy of the Americans resembles their own policy during the conflict between Iraq and Iran in the 80s.
      They wanted to scare Zelya and divorce him, but he does not believe. That is, they did not manage to divorce him, and therefore the United States is unhappy with him.
      The United States is unhappy with Zelensky because of his unwillingness to recognize the danger posed by Russia, writes The Economist. They warned the Ukrainian president about Moscow's "imminent" invasion and capture of Kiev. But instead of agreeing with them, Zelensky said that the most serious danger lurks inside the country. At the same time, he continues to demand urgent supplies of weapons from the West, the article notes.


      . "The purpose of such information is to sow panic and fear in our society," Deputy Defense Minister Anna Malyar wrote on Facebook. Disagreements of a rhetorical and analytical nature arose between Ukraine and America. If the Americans are warning of an imminent Russian invasion, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky believes the greatest danger lies within the country.

        Ukraine today is a very strong irritant for Russia, but also obligations for the United States, which are beginning to weigh on Washington. There is a phrase - "we are responsible for those who have tamed." The Americans abandoned those whom they tamed in Afghanistan, they were tired of only losses, but the sediment remained. And now it will haunt them in the situation with Ukraine, and they cannot be abandoned, and the obligations they have assumed are very straining. They would be happy to get rid of such a "toxic asset" with the help of a short war between Ukraine and Russia, and then they can wash their hands, but Russia does not provide such an opportunity.

          What obligations are there? Until the United States had a grater with Russia, they didn’t remember any Ukraine for 7 whole years, and as soon as they needed to put pressure on Russia through Ukraine, then hysteria began about the alleged Russian invasion and sanctions, the supply of weapons. there is Russia does not make concessions and it must be forced to make concessions, so they found an instrument of pressure. The main thing for the West is to rule the world, but such a trifle as Crimea, they do not care about obligations in any way.
          Our conclusions, which we made back in the summer, are confirmed. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated this directly yesterday. Here is a quote from Sergei Viktorovich:

          And the main goal of Washington in this case is not the fate of Ukraine at all - it is important for them to escalate tension around the Russian Federation in order to close this topic and then deal with China
          But we wrote a few months ago that the main goal of the globalists is to strike at China. And, as the situation has shown, the entire current escalation is a consequence of the rupture of the Great (Geneva) deal, during which the globalists failed to involve Russia in their "green agenda"


          .But back to the Big Deal. Let us recall its essence. During the Geneva talks, Biden wanted to get Russia to support the green agenda. What it is? This is a new ideology of globalists, which performs several functions at once:

          This is a consolidating idea. The unipolar world is disintegrating, the West needs a unifying agenda. And taking care of the planet, ecology is just such an idea of ​​the XXI century
          This is a tool to fight China. The collapse of the Bretton Woods system is made possible solely by the growing economic power of China. Beijing is already an alternative center of power. So far, only in the economy. But, if it goes on like this, then there is a high probability of the formation of a new unipolar world. Only led by China
          This is a driver for the development of our own economy. The US is in a structural economic crisis. GDP growth is not caused by the growth of the real economy, but by the growth of the financial sector. That is, purely paper transactions. As well as the service sector. But in the US financial sector, let's not reveal a secret, there is a real pyramid scheme. If it collapses, it will pull down services and, as a result, the entire economy. The green agenda is the development of the real sector. This is the emergence of new technologies, the construction of industrial facilities. Yes, as long as they are not needed. But if you push through the green agenda, then the demand for them will appear


          Nevertheless, it is unrealistic to implement the green agenda without Russia. We have explained this several times, so we will not repeat ourselves too much. In short, Russia has the richest "green" resources that the West does not have.



          That is why it was important for globalists that Russia support the green agenda. Vladimir Putin agreed that caring for the environment is one of the main tasks facing both the world and Russia in particular. After that, Biden said that Russia and the US needed 3-6 months to see if cooperation would work out.



          However, Russia began to implement environmental (rather than green) projects. Supporting concern for the environment, Putin directed his efforts to solving real, not mythical problems that exist in our country. Belousov and Abramchenko began to engage in environmental policy, and not Anatoly Chubais, as the globalists wanted.

          It turns out that having formally supported the topic, Putin decided to play by his own, and not by Western rules. Overseas, this caused fury, because Russia is needed to strike at China.



          Therefore, the globalists have begun a geopolitical escalation. In order to force Russia to the green agenda. That is why the globalists leak possible options for sanctions to the press. They show what will happen if we refuse to play by the rules of the West.

            Well, initially Ukraine was turned into a problem for Russia with one of the options as a suitcase without a handle, but after Afghanistan, if they merge Kiev, the Democrats will lose the elections .. and in their case it is very dangerous, since Trump is highly likely to be elected and then he will prove that the Democrats rigged the election results.

    Ukraine is not needed at this time and in this form, NATO is not needed, NATO needs an irritant on the border of Russia, firstly this is the justification for the existence of NATO itself (the empire of EVIL in the form of Russia), "the second is the salvation of the image after Afghanistan, and thirdly, a signal to everyone who wants to" buck up " they say you will rock the boat and you will fight for your existence like R.F.

    He gave his salary to the house, he called his mother-in-law mother.
    He was indifferent to football, but in the company he was not boring,

      I also liked it, in fact, the conditions are practically impossible to fulfill, if you abandon the Donbass and Crimea, suicide for the authorities, because the Nazis will lynch with them, and fight for them in order to return suicide to the country. But a third option is possible, a census of the NATO charter and the rules for admission to the alliance.

    Ukraine will never become part of NATO. For many reasons.

    This country is more likely to fall apart, Donetsk and Lugansk will separate, maybe even Kharkov. It will remain a rudimentary state, incapable of reforms, with the strengthening of Russian influence.

    Worse yet, it will be a permanent flashpoint in Europe due to the clash of interests of the "great"

    Much more important is another issue - the territorial integrity of the country.

    You can hold a referendum and determine which regions associate themselves with Ukraine, and which want something else...
    In any case, Ukraine has been ordered to join NATO. No country will want to (voluntarily) fight for Ukraine or for anyone else against Russia ... No. It is fraught ...

    Ukraine has come a long way to membership in the alliance
    And the introduction is somewhere over the horizon. This means that the curators have indicated the wrong path to the Ukrainian dream, or they have sent them on the wrong road in pursuit of their goals. Until the Ukrainians understand this, they will erase their legs to the shoulders.

    logical and expected. Only again will all this be done out of our pockets.
    Kiev will need to resolve the issue with the Donbass and Crimea.

    Crimea is recognized as Russian, and the problem of Donbass is solved by military means. Fortunately, the United States has gone to great lengths in its pressure on Russia and the supply of weapons. But Putin made it clear in his speeches that in this case there would be an armed response in defense of Donbass, despite possible sanctions.

    If you really want to join NATO, you need:
    1. resolve international disputes involving them by peaceful means;
    2. resolve ethnic, territorial and political conflicts in accordance with the principles of the OSCE.
