The Russian Invasion of Ukraine

The Russian Invasion of Ukraine

Should NATO put boots on the ground to defend Ukraine?

Posted on March 13, 2022

In the early morning of February 24th the world woke up to an invasion of Ukraine by Russia. Almost 200,000 Russian forces had been congregated along the Russian—Ukrainian border under the claim of “military training”. For some, it was a signal that an invasion was imminent. Where will it lead the world?

All apologies to those who thought the Cold War was over, but here we are. While Russia has the numbers and firepower, the Russian army is being held back by Ukraine. And, while Vladimir Putin watches from the Kremlin, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has taken up arms with his forces, while still communicating with world leaders.

The scenes of destruction are devastating for those on the outside. NATO members have been offering assistance in the form of equipment but will not enforce a No-Fly Zone out of fear of escalating the conflict. 

Listen to or watch the podcast, read the articles, and then cast your vote and email your MP to tell them why.

I voted: YesMy answer is yes. We need to do all we can to support. From a Canadian who's about to join the CAF this month, nothing would make me more proud then to protect my ancestral homeland. We have some of the best troops in the world here.

I voted: YesRussia is now bringing in troops from Syria, and still, NATO is unwilling to do anything to defend the sovereignty of Ukraine. If the western world truly believes in defending freedom and democracy Ukraine needs us more now than ever, either close the skies or send in troops. Putin and he regime are war criminals.

I voted: YesIf Trump was in the Whitehouse there would be no war in Ukraine as Trump would have told Putin you cross into Ukraine and I will bomb every building in Moscow with an onion on it and he would have done it if Russia advanced into Ukraine.

Wishful thinking. The facts say otherwise unfortunately. More likely Ukraine wouldn't have received as much support as they have thus far from the US or NATO's European alies.
