However, that would all change with Ukraine’s inclusion into NATO, which would see two nuclear armed parties coming uncomfortably close to something resembling dystopia. Uniparty system could not be happier about an indefinite war footing. It’s also great PR for the defense industry, which can now pretend to act as noble parties to the defense of Ukrainian “democracy.” Just as covid hysteria era facilitated a massive windfall for Big Pharma and broader healthcare/medical industrial mega corporations, the Ukraine war has become a major slush fund for the NATO-aligned defense industry, which has been seeking a new surefire, longterm cash cow since the withdrawal from Afghanistan.įorever war provides great low risk, high reward opportunity and a consistent revenue stream for the weapons and military apparatus manufacturing behemoths in the U.S. The second, and more nefarious reason for blocking Ukraine’s membership in NATO can be understood as: Forever War good, Nuclear War bad. As informed readers of The Dossier are already well aware, Ukraine’s entry into NATO during a hot war could immediately trigger the invocation of Article 5, which would drive enormous pressure upon alliance members to bring ground troops into the fight with Russia. NATO membership is not and will never be available to Ukraine during wartime for two main reasons:įirst and most obvious is that ascending Ukraine to NATO means a heightened prospect for a nuclear exchange. The decision to become the tip of the NATO spear has had devastating ramifications for actual Ukrainians, as the country’s fighting age males continue to bear the enormous burden of the Biden Administration-led proxy war against Russia. While Ukraine has traditionally served as a buffer state between East (Russia) and West (NATO), the Zelensky government has gone all-in on the latter side. In short, the parties to the proxy war don’t want Ukraine in NATO because they prefer to have Ukrainians and only Ukrainians to fight the battles for them. Ukraine’s non admission to NATO has absolutely nothing to do with the country’s well known corruption and other “anti-democratic” practices, although those are good subjective excuses to buy indefinite amounts of time. NATO entry to Ukraine is not on the table and it won’t be until there is an end to kinetic hostilities between Moscow and Kiev. What’s happening in Vilnius is one big game of posturing and pretend. It is not a meritocracy or even something akin to a university application process. That’s because there is no legitimate application process for joining NATO. Yes, I realize that barely made any sense. “But I think it’s premature to say, to call for a vote, you know, in now, because there’s other qualifications that need to be met, including democratization and some of those issues.” We’re at war with Russia, if that were the case.” If the war is going on, then we’re all in war. It’s a commitment that we’ve all made no matter what. For example, if you did that, then, you know – and I mean what I say – we’re determined to commit every inch of territory that is NATO territory. “I don’t think there is unanimity in NATO about whether or not to bring Ukraine into the NATO family now, at this moment, in the middle of a war. Here’s Joe Biden’s explanation for why Ukraine can’t be a part of NATO right now. During the summit, a visibly powerless Zelensky begged and pleaded for Ukraine’s entry into NATO, expressing his frustration with the lack of movement on Kiev’s application into the alliance.
