Trump has no fucking right to dictate what Ukraine’s future should be, since he’s deadset on pulling the US out of NATO.

trump wants out, so NATO can replace a dumbass country by a kickass country.

NATO is already redundant. A European/world alliance without US, and with Ukraine as its central military power, would be more effective.

Wait a second…
>During the interview with Bloomberg TV, Rutte was asked whether **former US President Donald Trump** had effectively removed Ukraine’s NATO bid from the negotiating table. He responded “Yes.”
So, Donald stepped down from the US presidency?

A ceasefire without a strong western presence in Ukraine will only last until RuSSia has rearmed.

NATO is a **defensive** alliance.
There is **ZERO** legitimate reason for someone to oppose any nation joining such an alliance as a participating member unless one of the following apply:
* They want to attack them.
* Someone they support wants to attack them.
* Said applying country doesn’t/won’t comply with the rules of the organisation.
And well, that says it all doesn’t it? Because it sure as hell isn’t #3.
And it’s all irrelevant, Ukraine is a sovereign nation and can do as it wishes regarding application for NATO membership. And if a country opposes it’s addition then they need to be honest about why they oppose it, otherwise as far as I’m concerned they can fuck off.

Call it something else. And leave the current version of the US out of it, and I am American. All this will pass one day but I don’t want anyone relying on the orange buffoon in the WH in the meantime.

Ukraine no entry into NATO. Ok not a problem. Welcome to the new European defence organisation. All the support of the former NATO including article 5. Minus the interference of the US , Hungary and Slovakia.

The Biden admin and some European states, including Germany, were also opposed to Ukrainian NATO membership unfortunately. Not just Trump.
The real question is what kind of ongoing military aid and European force will be offered instead of NATO membership.
30k European troops, hundreds of jets and tens of billions in military aid a year wouldn’t be NATO, but would still be a significant deterrent.
But it needs to be a very strong deterrent to deter the Russians from trying to attack anyway.

It can never be ruled out.
Ukraine has to have some final line that cannot be crossed by any aggressor.

Trump has the office for four years. And due in large part to his own gross incompetence, the number of people who during that time period give a flying fuck what he thinks or does not think should happen in the real world is falling faster than a lead zeppelin.

The more I see about this, the more I think it’s time for NATO to be replaced. Imagine a world where the countries of Europe form an alliance and that alliance then forms a pact with the US. It would create two parties that were closer to equals (Europe would currently be somewhat smaller but could match the US if it wanted).

What a dumb ass. “No. I am blocking the expansion of our American-led defensive alliance that has led to unprecedented global peace and the ascendence of America as the world’s most powerful state in all history. In fact, I think we should undo 80 years of American hegemony and suggest that we LEAVE our own alliance and instead have no one to call for help in case of trouble. We should be a less stable, less powerful, less important country. Doesn’t that sound terrific?”
