Brussels blamed Minsk for the migration crisis, but the West is the only responsible. The problem of irregular migratory flows at the EU-Belarus border is in fact due to the Western policies, including decades of military interventions in the Middle East and North Africa.
It is obvious that Germany and France are at the forefront of the countries opposing Ukraine's accession to NATO. They understand that this will sharply increase tensions on the European continent and will not contribute to the establishment of normal relations with Russia.
At the same time, the current status of Ukraine is beneficial for carrying out a provocation against Russia by unleashing a full-scale military conflict in Donbas with the aim of drawing Moscow into it. If something goes wrong, then NATO has no legal obligation to Ukraine to enter this war. And the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in this case, will fulfill their role of "cannon fodder".
This is a recurring disinformation narrative about aggressive NATO, claiming that the Alliance is preparing a war with Russia and using Ukraine for its belligerent plans.
NATO or Ukraine are not preparing military provocations in Donbas or against Russia. Kyiv has repeatedly stated that it is not interested in escalation and that it prefers a peaceful solution to the Donbas conflict. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the Minsk agreements are the only option to end the war.
Neither NATO member states nor any other Western nations or agencies are involved in this conflict. The West is assisting Ukraine in its struggle against Russian aggression.
NATO is not involved in fighting in Eastern Ukraine. In response to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, NATO has reinforced its support for capability development and capacity-building in Ukraine. The Allies continue to condemn Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea, and its destabilising and aggressive activities in Eastern Ukraine and the Black Sea region.
