Ben Wallace, Britain’s Secretary of Defense, has stated that if Russia invades Ukraine, Britain and the NATO countries will not send troops there.
Ukraine is the largest country in Eastern Europe. In this situation, Russia is trying to fully occupy Ukraine.
Russia has already occupied the Crimean part of Ukraine, and is currently amassing thousands of troops along the border with Ukraine as it seeks to fully occupy the European country of Ukraine.
Countries like the United States have strongly warned Russia against this. US President Joe Biden has warned that Russia could be “severely affected” by a war with Ukraine.
In a statement, he told reporters that Ukraine was not a member of NATO.
Thus, if Russia launches a war on that country, neither Britain nor other NATO members will be able to send troops there.
Therefore, we are pressuring Russia not to launch a war on Ukraine. He said Britain was committed to protecting the Ukrainian people from Russian occupation.
In 1949, NATO was formed to protect European nations from Soviet occupation.
When the Soviet Union disintegrated in 1991, its member state, Ukraine, declared independence. Russia is adamant that European influence in Ukraine should not increase, as about 30 percent of the population is Russian-speaking.
Russia has stated categorically that Ukraine should not be a member of NATO and that NATO positions should not be established in Ukraine. In this context, pro-Russian extremists from the east and south fought against the Ukrainian government in 2013.
With the help of Russian troops, they captured parts of eastern Ukraine, including Donetsk and Luhansk. Russia, then invading Crimea, which was part of Ukraine, annexed the peninsula. It is noteworthy that Russia is currently accused of plotting to annex Ukraine.
