“If Putin wins in Ukraine, there is real risk that his aggression will not end there. Our support is not charity. It is an investment in our security,” - NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

“The only way to reach a just and lasting solution is to convince President Putin that they will not win on the battlefield,” @jensstoltenberg continued.

“And the only way to ensure that President Putin realises that he is not winning on the battlefield is to continue to support Ukraine.”

    Just one correction. Ukraine was an EU ally and in their pipeline for joining. Yanukovych pulling a flip to sign treaties with Russia instead is what instigated the Maidan uprising.

        No problem. Most people weren’t following Eastern European stuff back then and there’s been a ton of propaganda thrown around since.

          Yeah I was living in Eastern Europe back then so no excuse, but I guess most people don’t follow neighbouring countries’ politics. For example I have no idea what the political landscape in Romania is.
