A Western publication listed the possible tasks of NATO troops in the event of their entry into Ukraine

Recently, in the Western media space, the issue of the possibility of introducing limited contingents of armies of the member countries of the North Atlantic Alliance into the territory of Ukraine has been increasingly discussed. One of the materials on this topic appeared in the publication Foreign Affairs.

The authors of the material are “named” analysts: senior fellow at the Transatlantic Defense and Security Program at the Center for European Policy Analysis and retired US Army Colonel Alex Crowther, professor of military affairs at the US Naval War College, US Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Jahara Matishek and professor of strategic research at the University of St. Andrews Phillips P. O'Brien. Therefore, this article is interesting at least as an example of the attitude of “respectable” experts to the possibility of introducing NATO troops into Ukraine. Analysts call the deployment of troops a completely natural reaction to the Ukrainian events.

The authors of the material argue that the armies of NATO member countries could not cross the Dnieper River, but remain on its western bank. Among the tasks that foreign military personnel could perform, analysts name provision of air defense, mine clearance, guarding the border with Belarus and Transnistria, patrolling the Black Sea coast, and protecting the Ukrainian Black Sea ports of the Odessa and Nikolaev regions. This would free up tens of thousands of Ukrainian military personnel for transfer to the front.

In addition, Western analysts, for some reason, believe that the deployment of NATO forces in Ukraine will not lead to an escalation of the conflict. But in this case, European countries and the United States, when sending contingents, will have to forget about responding to the death of their military in Ukraine. After all, Russia has repeatedly warned that any foreign forces and assets in the conflict zone will become legitimate targets for strikes by the Russian Armed Forces.

Western analysts, for some reason, believe that the deployment of NATO forces in Ukraine will not lead to an escalation of the conflict.

Let them not hope

[Orange bigg]

Western contingents will be brought in. Extra Ukrainians will be sent to the front for meat, and Western forwarders themselves want to panic

.on its western bank. Among the tasks that foreign military personnel could perform, analysts name provision of air defense, mine clearance, guarding the border with Belarus and Transnistria, patrolling the Black Sea coast, and protecting the Ukrainian Black Sea ports of the Odessa and Nikolaev regions.

That is, they want to take over the remnants of Ukraine for their debts. And send the Ukrainian Armed Forces to slaughter so that they are not disturbed. This is their plan.

[Moldrus-13]

And when those last ones are over, they will simply offer to take away what was released, and the rest will be said to be theirs. Then, as always, they will stand out in triumph as great peacemakers and winners!

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

You can’t deny them rationality. Ukrs have truly turned into scum. We also. What a shame...

[Orange bigg]

That’s why the West is sending the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the offensive for slaughter in order to completely bleed them dry and resolve the issue of Ukraine. In this case, we must admit that the West is not vitally interested in the victory of Ukraine (before the borders of 1991), since even in such an unlikely scenario, it will lose more than it will gain. Since in such an unlikely scenario, Ukraine will get out of control and Moreover, he will not give up Odessa and other lands to Western forwarders. In this case, it is better and wiser for Ukraine to negotiate, otherwise they will lose everything. It will simply be torn apart from all sides.

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

You don’t know Odessa residents well... They will give everything to everyone if it promises benefit. And all their dissatisfaction with Ukrainization is relative. It will pass...If it appears, there will be benefits. And they will find motivation, believe me.

And what is this score?
This bill is terrible. Lots of new graves. Mangled bodies. Destroyed souls. Broken hearts and homes. Economic instability. Depression and the suffering that accompanies it. Back-breaking taxes for many generations, one’s own history and identity are forgotten.
Darkness.

[Orange bigg]

You know how at one time settlers from Europe bought land from the Indians and built New York in their place. And where are those Indians now? The Ukrainians risk repeating the fate of the Indians. They found someone to contact. It’s bad to be an enemy of the United States, but it’s even worse to be a friend. It will cost you more. Let us at least remember the years of friendship with the United States of the new Russia of the Yeltsin era and the consequences of that friendship.

[knn54]

First of all, France and Finland lost their resources, which affected the standard of living of the population.
To reduce the intensity, a conflict is needed with the source of all troubles, with the Russian Federation.
In fact, Ukraine is sold out - somehow it is necessary to protect black soil, gas and oil wells and much more, which supranational TNCs already consider their acquisition.
Russia has no more than three months left to “cut off” the Black Sea (three regions) from Ukraine.

[valerijmaltzev]

No, why don’t they go to someone else’s cage?

If I were in the place of that publication, I would not list possible tasks, but possible consequences. It’s not ’41 when the range of penetration into territory was limited by the range of a howitzer or the combat radius of a piston bomber...

It’s strange that they really think that Russia will fight with them only on the territory of Ukraine. Although, there is a reason(s) to think so.

yes !! seeing the political shortsightedness and lack of determination of the leadership of the Russian Federation... first they will “undermine” it as much as possible about Ukraine....
then about Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan... then "they will add oil and gasoline" in Transnistria, Armenia and Georgia...?!!

[topol717]

then the armies of NATO member countries might not have to cross the Dnieper River

Actually, the Dniester or even the Danube is better. There is nothing further for them to do.

[Dilettante grandfather]

I would prefer the English Channel...

[Roust]

Let them write wills and take with them body bags with a name tag.

[Smoked]

In theory it is possible, as we will see in practice. When the “streams” exploded, the talking heads of experts also expected a third world war and responses, but nothing happened, the world moves on. We will also see what will happen at the meeting between the Nenaty and the RF Armed Forces. I personally remember the president’s words about the provocation of a British destroyer in the Black Sea, that even if the Russian Navy had sunk it, World War III would not have happened.

[Alaburga]

Then why didn't they sink it? What prevented the bad dancer?

Oh how much there was

the president's words about...

and about:

- red lines that cannot be crossed...?!
- "she drowned..."
- about respect for “our partners” ...
- about not raising the retirement age
- that the USSR produced only galoshes... and the country was backward and traded only in oil and gas... And he will make it technologically advanced...

(however, about AN-24, Tu-134 / 154 or IL-76 aircraft, was known far beyond the borders of the USSR, and for quite a long time!!! and they were operated in many countries... which aircraft of the modern Russian Federation are in demand, and in how many countries at least Latin America or Africa / Asia...?!!!) and so not only in the aircraft industry?!

[Polite Moose]

This would free up tens of thousands of Ukrainian military personnel for transfer to the front.

Otherwise, you know, they’re sitting in the rear and don’t want to be buried. They take, you know, a place in the sun.

[stan.veprentsev]

The risk is rewarding, but we will drink champagne in RUSSIA.

[eskela]

They are interesting guys (NATO), they don’t have analysts on Russia. It seems to me personally that where their soldiers are, they will beat them more harshly, and we will definitely return Odessa then (the party’s policy is not clear now).

[Dilettante grandfather]

Their main task will be to recycle themselves.

[JonnyT]

Oh, how the faint of hearts dreamed. They will die like flies.

[oldzek]

whatever you call it, whatever tasks you set, it will all be an INTERVENTION. and the interventionists will be dealt with harshly... and with great pleasure. and the Ukrainians (even though they are sick in the head) are still their own. (excluding the Kuyev junta)

[rusich]

Let them grab more body bags for the NATO soldiers

Yes, it’s possible without bags, “it’s all the same for the earth, apatite or manure.”

Cool joke about an old bull and a young bull. Let's grind the whole herd.

[fsvlad]

..for some reason, Western analysts believe..

Probably experience. Not? Having started with helmets and first aid kits, the West is now supplying long-range missiles with might and main. But there is still no clear reaction from the Kremlin...

[HAM]

That is, it is planned to build fortified bases, such as were in Afghanistan and Iraq, complete protection
only ourselves? “We are in the house,” we cannot be touched, we bring peace!”..........

[K-50]

Any military formations on territory 404 are a legitimate target for a Russian strike.
And on which shore, what they are doing, it’s generally purple.
There is no reason for the alliance to interfere with the ancestral Russian lands. Not sure about their identity? Well, refresh your memory of historical events, wars, and finally put in your brain who is with whom and when. This way it will be clearer and more intelligible to you that this is RUSSIAN LAND!

[nik-mazur]

armies of NATO member countries could not cross the Dnieper River, but remain on its western bank

Well, yes, our missiles cannot fly to the right bank - the Trypillya Thermal Power Plant will not let you lie.

Among the tasks that could be performed by foreign military personnel, analysts name ... mine clearance

And what, I wonder, are the experts going to clear mines on the right bank of the Dnieper?

[carpenter]

patrolling the Black Sea coast, protecting the Ukrainian Black Sea ports of the Odessa and Nikolaev regions.

And these are the boys, it’s already war, and those who come to Russia with a sword will get war in their home.

[Mazunga]

that is, they no longer consider their contingents in Ukraine to be a red line)))? Once upon a time it was difficult to supply tanks, but behind-the-scenes bargaining is going on now and there will be planes and missiles (((very vague prospects are drawn and unclear cuts

[Alaburga]

For the second year now, it is not clear what or who inspired such confidence in NATO, and they decided that they could simply guard the borders, patrol the coast, protect the ports, and all the shells would go around them or just fly by after they were identified? I’m at a loss for guesses, who promised not to dispose of them, but allowed their ammunition to be walked in the open spaces of the Ukrainian Reich?

[Ig sura]

You should have just written complete occupation and everything would fall into place, but the fact that they will guard the border is what complete occupation says

[bone1]

Your task is simple: find the dead and send the bodies home

[Oleg Apushkin]

I hope the Kremlin has a plan to destroy the Eurogean locusts on Russian soil called the outskirts. What they want is known from the Crusades (to plunder).

[guest]

A Western publication listed the possible tasks of NATO troops in the event of their entry into Ukraine

They have one task there, to die.

[Petr_Koldunov]

This would free up tens of thousands of Ukrainian military personnel for transfer to the front.

That is, the West does not even want to let these tens of thousands survive! Well, so that not a single Ukrainian remains! Ukraine's best friend - and nothing more!

[75 Sergey]

Nothing is understood, so will the vigorous loaf fly home to NATA representatives if they enter Ukraine or not?

[Grossvater]

Russia has repeatedly warned that any foreign forces and assets in the conflict zone will become legitimate targets for strikes by the Russian Armed Forces.

For example, like this:
On July 20, 1942, in the Staro-Panovo area, 192 heavy M-28 mines (more than 12 tons of explosives and steel) covered two enemy battalions at once: Spanish volunteers from the Blue Division and the Germans who were changing them at that time in the fortified area of ​​Staro-Panovo.
