Ukraine will be part of Nato.
- Thread starter Whiskeydeltadeltatango
- Start date
The parliament is considering legislation that would increase the potential pool of recruits by about 400,000, in part by lowering the enlistment age from 27 to 25. But the proposal is highly unpopular, forcing elected officials to grapple with questions that cut to the heart of nationhood: Can they convince enough citizens to sacrifice their lives? And, if not, are they willing to accept the alternative?
Desperate for soldiers, Ukraine weighs unpopular plan to expand the draft

As the war enters its third year, the most urgent and politically sensitive challenge is whether Ukraine can muster enough new soldiers to repel an enemy with far more fighters.

HOW DARE THEY! who do they think they are...a sovereign nation?
don't they know they need to check with their more powerful neighbor -who just invaded them - before doing anything?

If any Ukranian women ages 28-34 are looking for a safe house in America, I have three spare beds. Wife will probably be cool with my humanitarian efforts.
WWIII with a strong nato would be over in a week.
And china and n korea know it.

WHY ARENT WE APPEASING THE EUROPEAN STRONGMAN?
history shows this is always the way to go...especially right after they Invade one of their neighbors. if we just keep them happy, they'll stop invading other countries
besides...it's not like Russia has a history with this kind of thing

Why is it up to 330 million Americans on the other side of the world to protect 448 million Europeans from 144 million Russians?
Answer doesn't have to be in all caps, but I do wonder why it's more our responsibility than theirs.
edited to add: I didn't include Ukrainians, just EU. So add another 40 million or so Europeans.
MAGA ain't got time for history...all they need is their cult leader to tell them what to believe
The exhibit is you have no answer why a much richer and 3x more populous needs America to protect it from Russia.
NATO expansion brought the conflict that experts predicted, but for some reason the proponents of the expansion want to keep going. The bloodshed thus far isn't enough.
Either the neocons wanted this response, or they miscalculated the response.
Which do you think it is?
Queue my post about Lying Donnie Sexual Abuser, and his flat foot excuse for being afraid to go into the US military service. Birds of a feather these Ukranian men and our ex president I guess.
There's plenty of news articles about it, just Google it. He originally tried lowering the age even lower but faced massive backlash and walked it back to a 2 year reduction.
No
We are happy to let Russia 🇷🇺 and Putin take over Ukraine 🇺🇦 , Poland 🇵🇱, 🇱🇻 Latvia, Finland 🇫🇮, Lithuania 🇱🇹, Estonia 🇪🇪, Romania 🇷🇴, Hungary 🇭🇺, Germany 🇩🇪, France 🇫🇷, Britain 🇬🇧, etc. etc.
What does that matter to us?
And doesn't to putin. And apparently trump. "Go ahead take anything you want."
Well I have seen nothings of the sort when I have been there. I see men who want nothing but to win their war. I am sure some don't want to fight. I am also sure people would not want to fight here. Hell biff is a draft dodger himself.
So are you a proponent of the US withdrawing from NATO?
That whoosh you heard is semen-hole withdrawing from the discussion.
Ok, what does that mean? They can’t be in NATO because of it?
So the good liberals are looking to add Ukraine to NATO and get us totally involved in a shooting war with a nation that has nuclear weapons. Got it.
I don't think bringing Ukraine into NATO is a good idea during an ongoing war. They are being supported by NATO, end this war first then bring them in.
For someone who KNOWS so much, you are ignorant AF about Ukraine and are too lazy or too stupid to do some research. Or maybe you are just a braindead shitlib. That's my guess.
I disagree. We cannot Neville Chamberlain this. We need to stop Putin right now.
They would have preferred it happen under Trump but in the end the MIC’s gonna MIC. *

You assume I was homeschooled because I can read and write (AND exhibit exemplary critical thinking skills?)
Doesn’t say much for public education in the modern era, huh? 😁
But to answer your question…No. I was not homeschooled.
