NATO Foreign Ministers held an extraordinary meeting in Brussels Friday (4 March 2022) to address the escalating crisis in Ukraine. They were joined by the Foreign Ministers of Finland and Sweden and the European Union High Representative. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba addressed his counterparts in a video message, in which he described the deteriorating humanitarian situation in his country.

Ministers condemned Russia’s brutal and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine and expressed solidarity and support for the courage of the Ukrainian people and armed forces. They addressed NATO’s immediate response to the crisis. In addition to the thousands more troops that Allies have already sent to the eastern part of the Alliance, NATO is deploying its Response Force for the first time, it has over 130 jets at high alert and over 200 ships from the High North to the Mediterranean. “

We will continue to do what it takes to protect and defend every inch of NATO territory”, said Secretary General Stoltenberg. Foreign Ministers also discussed the need to support partners who may be at risk of the war in Ukraine spilling-over, including Georgia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

“We are not part of this conflict”, said Mr. Stoltenberg, adding, however, that NATO has “a responsibility to ensure it does not escalate and spread beyond Ukraine. That would be even more devastating and dangerous.”

The meeting was an opportunity for ministers to also address the longer-term implications of Russia’s aggression for Euro-Atlantic security.

The Secretary General reiterated that “Russia’s aggression has created a new normal for our security, where fundamental principles are contested through the use of force”. In this new normal, ministers agreed that NATO’s relationship with Russia has fundamentally changed for the long term, but they remain committed to keeping diplomatic channels open to avoid any unintended escalation, misunderstanding or miscalculation.

In the afternoon, Mr. Jens Stoltenberg participated in the extraordinary meeting of the Foreign Affairs Council of the European Union. This meeting was an opportunity for the Secretary General to hold an informal exchange with EU Foreign Affairs Ministers on the conflict in Ukraine and brief them on the discussions that the NATO ministers had earlier that same day. NATO and the EU are united in strongly condemning Russian aggression against Ukraine.

Personal note: If Ukraine falls - he may be tempted to hit a few collar nations
just because he can and he has troops in the area. Ya gotta knock his socks
off and make his military pay the price for invasion otherwise ya never know
Putn may say well that a piece of cake - lets have another go around to see
just how far we can go. His arogance is such he wants to be imortalized
as a Russian savior. The quickest fix - is for one of his so-called pals to walk
in and put pullet in his head - and say Ok let's get back to something more
positive.
-
You do know he carries a gun with where ever he goes. He's unstable and
a wild card - you just never know what he's cooking up in his sick mind.
If he even get an hin or an inclination that someone may attempt to knock
him off only makes him more deadly. He's form KGB.

What does that mean?

a. The web says it stands for: The Shield to Defend The Revolution.
-
b. KGB definition, the intelligence and internal-security agency of the former
Soviet Union, organized in 1954 and responsible for enforcement of security ...
-
It could also mean to: Keep Geeks Busy -
-
c. In Russian - KGB stands for Komitet Gosudarstvennoy Bezopasnosti,
which translates to “Committee for State Security” in English.
-
d. In short their thugs - it's their way - or - well it could be dozen other ways -
& none are pleasant I would suspect. And their victoms go away with a brutal
finally in most cases! Actually their modern day gangsters - without hearts
& souls - who are called upon to produce deadly end results of any non-compliance.
(In plain English - they are the hit squads of Russia).
-
It could be that water-bording just takes to long & its messy.
