Biden Says He’d Fight World War III for NATO But Not for Ukraine
U.S. has ‘sacred obligation’ to defend NATO, Biden says
No-fly zone in Ukraine would mean war, he tells Democrats
U.S. Will Not Fight War Against Russia in Ukraine: Biden


President Joe Biden said he would defend NATO to the point of World War III, but that he won’t risk touching off a wider conflict by fighting Russia in Ukraine and ruled out establishing a no-fly zone.

“As we provide this support to Ukraine, we’re going to continue to stand together with our allies in Europe and send an unmistakable message: that we will defend every inch of NATO territory,” Biden said in Philadelphia on Friday during a speech to Democrats. “If they move once -- granted, if we respond, it is World War III, but we have a sacred obligation on NATO territory.”

But he again said the U.S. won’t fight Russia in Ukraine, including by establishing a no-fly zone. “We will not fight the third World War in Ukraine,” he said.

He rejected calls for the U.S. to consider an effort to close the skies over Ukraine, which American military commanders have said would require shooting down Russian planes in the airspace.

Don’t kid yourself: No matter what you all say, that’s called World War III, OK?” Biden said.

cool



Mr Comedian in Chief aka Zelensky should let everyone rest,

Don't Join NATO for now
Implement Minsk agreement
Let SouthEast Ukraine have autonomy

The only reason Vladimir Putin is widely loved in Russia is due to his love for annexing old solveit union states especially the ethnic Russian region... He rode to power on the success of Chechnya invasion... So his people would be happy to annex Donbass from Ukraine and to them this is a necessary war to free their brothers

Ukraine are the biggest losers in this war.

Nomerica is on the verge of Total physical collapse and you looking for who to help.

Biden was brought in to Supervise the total Physical collapse of Nomerica and he is doing it Excellently.

Nomerica has reached the point of No return. Even if the likes of Abramham Lincoln rise from death to rule, she will aril be Destroyed.

I Predict btw now and 2025/26 , Nomerica will be reduced to a 3rd World Nation ..
In fact 2026 is too far..

Then why did he urge the Ukrainian President on, instigating him to take a hardline stance against Russia?

This suggests that the whole episode was truly about stopping the Nordstream 2 pipeline, and is akin to throwing the Ukrainian government and it’s people under the bus.

Up to this point, the military industrial complex of the US are the biggest winners. They have so many emergency contracts to fulfill courtesy the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Talk about instigating a war and still being the ones to supply the military Equiptments to the unsuspecting nations who see Putin as the main problem.

Is Biden sure about that? Can USA keep her promises because something like this was said in 1930 to Poland by world powers the French and the British but we knew how they ran away.

Can USA risk any Baltic states for USA homeland.
This is not 1930s.

Many of the populace are already not in the position to state a proxy war in a place that is literally is a life line financially as it stands now.
Secondly,if at all a portion of persons choose to be dumb enough to become local terrorists.it is very easy to eliminate them since the country been in NATo gives them outright security advantage

All the Baltic countries think NATO would save them, they should wake up. The original founding fathers of NATO would be protected first before those in eastern European countries.

That's why Poland has been shouting to high heavens for more NATO support.

Until we see a massive deployment of troops on NATO’s borders both in the North (Poland and Baltics) and South (Romania in particular)? And I’m talking not a few thousand but tens of thousands of NATO troops, armor, artillery, air power and all. Until then all of this talk about “defending every inch of NATO territory” is a steaming pile of dung. Putin knows this.

These Eastern Europeans should better find a way to maintain a friendly relationship with Russia. Allowing the US to use them as proxies to antagonize Russia is senseless.

That's what you think

In one single blow, they have ensured that Russia will not intimidate their neighbours again

Without NATO, Ukraine would have defeated since

So how is that a sell out?

Ukraine was a means to an end.

1. Provoke Russia
2. Enrich arm dealers. The speed at which over 500m euros worth of weapons was transferred to “support Ukraine”
3. Admit Ukraine to NATO? No
4. Admit Ukraine to the EU? No

The joke is on Putin

Ukraine cannot meet up to join EU and NATO soon

It's not a boys Scout like Warsaw Pact

After Russia amassed soldiers on the borders of Ukraine, Putin has already won

It became very hard for Ukraine to join NATO

But by this invasion, he might as well bring it to pass

NATO article 5 is a great detterence. But not applicable in reality. The US will not allow Russia to send ICBM to it territory because of one tiny nation. It is fact. Like i always say, the threat of a real world war will break the alliance. Some countries will pull out.
