Russian Media Warns Of World War 3 Over U.S.
Resolution 758, Canada Offers Military Aid To
Ukraine

Russian media is already warning that the
recently-passed House Resolution 758 could lead
to “all-out” war if the U.S. Senate were to pass
similar legislation. While President Barack Obama
has yet to offer lethal aid and weapons to
Ukraine, Canada has already announced they will
provide military assistance outside the constraints
of NATO.

In a related report by the Inquisitr , Ron Paul
believes that a “reckless” Congress has essentially
declared war on Vladimir Putin and Russia based
upon Resolution 758. Fears of World War 3 were
stoked when Russian fighter jets faced off against
NATO jets in blitz designed to be a “show of
force” by Vladimir Putin.
House Resolution 758 officially calls upon
President Obama “to provide the Government of
Ukraine with lethal and non-lethal defense
articles, services, and training required to
effectively defend its territory and sovereignty.”
It’s possible that the current Democratic majority
in the U.S. Senate, led by Harry Reid, will block
similar legislation from passing the Senate, but
John McCain has already promised to pass a
similar resolution in 2015.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander
Lukashevich claims that supplying lethal aid to
Ukraine would be a direct violation of the Geneva
Agreements. In addition, Russian media funded by
the government has published an editorial that
attempts to refute House Resolution 758. RT even
goes so far as to claim that the United States is
provoking World War 3 by bring the United States
one step closer to an “all-out” war with Russia.
“The opening paragraph of HR 758 accuses
Russia of conducting an “invasion of Ukraine” and
violating its territorial sovereignty…. There are
many more such preposterous claims and
dangerous demands in HR 758, yet the document
has been greeted with a deafening silence in the
United States by the corporate-owned media,” the
article from RT.com states. “Before the US Senate
votes on HR758, it should ask itself these simple
questions, otherwise it risks stirring up a hornet’s
nest of problems the world does not need.”

Recently, Canadian Defense Minister Rob
Nicholson announced this week that Canada will
send Canadian soldiers into Ukraine in order to
provide training, including security measures and
battlefield medicine. The declaration of intent was
made independent of NATO and it’s not
considered a legally binding treaty under
international, but it does stop short of providing
lethal aid and weapons to Ukraine. Still, the
Canadian declaration does resemble elements of
the U.S. House Resolution 758.

“Russia has flagrantly violated the territorial
integrity of Ukraine and continues its efforts to
intimidate and undermine the democratically
elected government in Kiev,” the declaration
reads . “Canada and Ukraine are committed to
continue working together to strengthen the
capacity of the Ukrainian government and its
security forces to defend Ukraine’s territorial
integrity and its people. We declare our intent to
continue working together to explore ways in
which to build upon these gains, particularly as
concerns defense capacity-building through the
provision of general support training such as
military police, medical and personal protective
measures.”

The Ukrainian government in Kiev continues to
seek lethal aid from NATO member countries.
While both the United States and Canada have
rejected calls to send lethal aid into Ukraine, both
countries would be obligated by NATO treaties to
respond with military force if Russia’s actions
were to ever violate Article V of NATO’s
Washington Treaty, which declares that “an
attack on one is an attack on all.” At the same
time, others feel that it’s the U.S. and NATO who
are the aggressors in the Ukraine crisis, not
Russia or Vladimir Putin.
