RELATED: Harris vows 'ironclad' support of NATO amid Ukraine invasion

The United States has bolstered its military presence in Poland and other ally countries bordering Russia and Ukraine since the start of the war. It sent 5,000 troops to Poland as Russia built up its army on the Ukrainian border in February and deployed hundreds more to European countries earlier this week.

The alliance has been on high alert since Russian President Vladimir Putin undertook his military campaign against Ukraine, preparing to repel potential Russian aggression against NATO states.

  1. Part of Putin’s speech (Feb/21/2022): “There are many examples of this. First a bloody US-led NATO military operation was waged against Belgrade, without the UN Security Council’s sanction but with combat aircraft and missiles used in the heart of Europe. The bombing of peaceful cities and vital infrastructure went on for several weeks. I have to recall these facts, because some Western colleagues prefer to forget them, and when we mentioned the event, they prefer to avoid speaking about international law, instead emphasising the circumstances which they interpret as they think necessary. Then came the turn of Iraq, Libya and Syria. The illegal use of military power against Libya and the distortion of all the UN Security Council decisions on Libya ruined the state, created a huge seat of international terrorism, and pushed the country towards a humanitarian catastrophe, into the vortex of a civil war, which has continued there for years. The tragedy, which was created for hundreds of thousands and even millions of people not only in Libya but in the whole region, has led to a large-scale exodus from the Middle East and North Africa to Europe. A similar fate was also prepared for Syria. The combat operations conducted by the Western coalition in that country without the Syrian government’s approval or UN Security Council’s sanction can only be defined as aggression and intervention.” Google or YouTube for the whole thing.

    1. That’s what gang member say in the hood attack against one is an attack against all.. Kamala Harris sounds like NATO has become the cartel

    2. All of these were wars to either stop massive human rights violations, or to remove insane dictators from power. You wanna tell me which category Ukraine fits? You wanna tell me what part of those residential neighborhoods that are in ruins were military targets?
      You will go off topic or instead of answering you’ll give examples of NATO doing this, in 3.. 2.. 1..

    3. Yes the US has a terrible foreign policy record. So is that Putin’s excuse to take over a country on his border and decide they should be erased as a sovereign nation? The US did horrible sh*t so I can too?

  2. Try not to laugh Harris, these are men and women risking their lives for yours and the big guy’s agenda..

    1. the USA is the main enemy of the whole world ! you are a threat to the whole world! Russia has been patiently silent for 30 years. If you don’t calm down, the world will die and you will be in the same coffin with everyone. The EU and the US are to blame for the start of the operation in Ukraine, now you are laying down weapons. blocking our point of view is your level of dimacracy and freedom of speech. Meta are tyrorists. Nato has come to the border of the Russian Federation – you have come to us! We don’t want war! We believe in our army! Don’t forget that everyone will lose in a nuclear war.(

    1. Why are so many people intimidated by or VP? So many insecure little boys in this world. The world will definitely not be counting on any of you if a war breaks out and boots are needed on the ground, that’s for sure.

    2. Leaders should have the ability to speak freely and to articulate, enunciate and firm. Unfortunately, Kamala is not in the category.

    1. @Paul Haas typical left come back. You’re a racist. You’re a Nazi
      Kamala called Biden a racist

  3. “Ukraine is a country in Europe. It exists next to another country called Russia. Russia is a bigger country.” – Vice President Harris

    1. ​@Witcheroo Sweet You voted for a president who said the N word on the Senate floor, created his 1994 crime bill with a segregationist, eulogized a Klansman, and said black people “ain’t black” unless they voted for him. You’re an idiot, thanks.

    2. @YUM Liberal Tears Apparently you aren’t very well educated. You remind me of the fool that said there is no such word as ain’t. Or the “educated” fool who allegedly graduated from college and had to ask a black guy where Wahington D. C. is. I know your kind.

  4. I bet they all burst into hysterical laughter as she entered da plane.. “its true! Hahahahahahaha , wow WTF was that?” 🤣

  5. NATO is nothing without the small countries around the Globe 🌎 . Remember that . I say this to all countries that are holding back . This could had been stopped ✋ long ago .

  6. Ukraine is not even a NATO member.

    Kamal takes NATO policy serious but laughs about everything else.

    Hag.

  7. Don’t know wether to cry or laugh when that lady with the title of vice president of the USA 🇺🇸 is talking 🙈🙉🙊

  8. Are you kidding.. Harris just confirmed that she’s not intellectually up for the job… SAVE 🇺🇲oh yeah what about the refuge crisis here in America caused by the Biden regime… let’s Go Brandon

  9. I hope them soldiers know she’s straight up lying! Also they are bound by the constitution NOT NATO or NATO’s territory!!!!!

  10. Mind Begs the Question:
    If deploying Bio Weapons,Troops
    In USA backyard – not Allowed
    In Russias backyard – Allowed
    Democracy,Imperialism?
