Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on the 15th that if his country loses to Russia, it may eventually force the United States to choose between “NATO collapse” or war.
Capitol Hill reported that Zelensky said in an exclusive interview with NBC News, “If Ukraine loses, if Russia takes Ukraine, Russia will continue to go to the Baltic countries, Poland, etc. They will go to war with one of the NATO countries, and in this momentAmerica will have to choose between NATO collapse or going to war」。
The Baltic states Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, as well as Poland, are NATO members, and under NATO’s collective defense principles, an attack on any member “is considered an attack against them all”. Zelensky brought up the possibility of implicating NATO in response to the reporter’s point that some politicians in the US Republican Party believe that the US needs to limit war spending in Ukraine.
Zelensky pointed out, “Is there any candidate or senator who feels that the price of the United States supporting Ukraine is too high, is he ready to fight, fight, send their children, are they ready to die? Because anyway, if NATO is involved, they’re going to have to do that.” “This is not Ukraine against Russia, Russia is at war with the civilized world,” he added.
