Ukraine Debate21 Mar 2022 09:12
Its inevitable to discuss the Ukraine conflict for the following 1.) the damage being done and loss of life, 2.) conflict, sanctions, their impact on peoples investments, no matter what, its only natural to be concerned about one's investment and etc.
In my opinion, there are two sides to this conflict, truth rests somewhere in the middle. There are underlying dirty political games going on which none of are privy to and never will be, we're not important enough. In my opinion, arming and re-arming the Ukrainians is just prolonging the war, and this is where I believe the US is trying to give the Russians a blooded nose (in-directly), very dangerous game being played.
Having said that, no one can condone Putin's decisions and actions, civilians are dying, cities being bombed to rubble. In spite of how we feel, NATO cannot intervene until such time NATO territory is attacked, then god help us all.
Final thought, over the past 10 years, there has been simmering tensions and the odd skirmish between India and China, if conflict broke out, which side would the West/NATO support?
All the best......want peace
