The Russian invasion of Ukraine resulted from immense strategic blunders, Robert Service says.
The first came on Nov. 10, when the U.S. and Ukraine signed a Charter on Strategic Partnership, which asserted America’s support for Kyiv’s right to pursue membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
The pact made it likelier than ever that Ukraine would eventually join NATO—an intolerable prospect for Vladimir Putin. “It was the last straw,” Mr. Service says.
For Ukraine to Join NATO, followed by establishing military bases with Nuclear weapons on the border of Russia was not acceptable by the Russians and some of USA president agreed on it.
This has been the issue since the Cuban Missile era and at that time, both agreed to avois these activities. Not this current president.
Preparations immediately began for Russia’s so-called special military operation in Ukraine.
All been expected by the Ukraine, the USA and NATO's. Germany, France, but USA does what it does regardless. Just a thought.
