Ukraine-Russia Crisis and NATO
At the heart of the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia is NATO. Russia doesn’t want Ukraine or any other ex-Soviet Nation to be a part of NATO. Taking a stand on the ongoing crisis, NATO said that it would take new deterrence and defense steps after the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
NATO will put over 100 warplanes on high alert and further increase the presence of troops on its eastern flank. NATO secretary-general Jens Stoltenberg said there would be a virtual emergency summit on Friday.
“Peace on our continent has been shattered. Russia is using force to try to rewrite history, and deny Ukraine its free and independent path,” said NATO secretary-general Jens Stoltenberg. He added, “We have no plans to send Nato troops in Ukraine. What we do is defensive.”
