@haui yeah, the Guarantors of the West (#UK & #USA) failed to follow their contractual obligations, making them unreliable.

In fact, their non-action enabled Putin and they can be glad #Ukraine didn't took the logical consequence of leaving the #NPT citing said failure as reasoning.

  • Already these developments send shockwaves as they make it abundantly clear that one cannot trust any #UN #VetoPower and the only #deterrence against #Russia deciding to genocide one from the map is #nuclear, which is seemingly the inconvenient reality...

If Moscow manages to negotiate the lifting of sanctions in exchange for a ceasefire, its militarised economy will quickly regain strength

Only deterrence by denial – ensuring that any future attack would be impossible or overwhelmingly costly – can secure lasting peace in the region.
=
Deterrence must be pan-European, treating Ukraine’s security as an integral part of the broader European defence architecture

(and what about #Canada?)

without U.S. ally, Western army chiefs meet to show #Ukraine unity

closed-door gathering of 34 army chiefs, including #NATO alliance and #EU members as well as #Japan and #Australia, was a rare -possibly unprecedented -convening without the U.S.

"The political message is we can do it together and without the United States, but it's clear there are things we can't do and the problem with Russia is we need to have #deterrence" said a diplomat.

French President Emmanuel Macron, French Defence Minister Sebastien Lecornu and Chief of Staff of the French Armed Forces (CEMA) Thierry Burkhard attend a meeting with the chiefs of staff of the European Union and NATO armies on the conflict in Ukraine at the Musee de la Marine as part of the Paris Defence and Strategy Forum in Paris, France, March 11, 2025.

@alexlunaview nodds in agreement

The #War against #Ukraine must end with Kiyv winning, and I don't just mean #StatusQuoAnteBellum (1994-2011), but full #EU & #NATO membership with stationed #troops and #nukes.

Macron proposed to start “strategic discussions” on the subject as he warned #Europe against the #Russian #threats & stressed #European countries should no longer rely on US for security

France is the only #EU country with #nuclear #weapons

“This readiness of France, this is something very promising,” Tusk said

I believe Canada needs to develop an effective #deterrence #threat to keep Mango Mussolini at bay - but we need it, like, yesterday.

Nuclear weapons - possibly purchased from France, since the USA might have too much influence over the UK - would do the trick. We wouldn't need a lot, just enough to make a couple getting through to D.C. and New York a realistic possibility.

It shocks me to have to seriously consider this threat. Canada hasn't seriously worried about a US #invasion since the '50s or '60s.
