DISINFO: NATO continues using Ukraine as a puppet and cannon fodder for war with Russia
SUMMARY
NATO wants Ukraine to remain its semi-colonial puppet and to play a role of cannon folder in the future war with Russia. The territories close to Russia are aggressively taken by NATO. They also want to eliminate Russia - not necessarily by a nuclear strike but as an independent actor with a sovereign government.
RESPONSE
A recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about Ukraine being under "external control" mixed with an anti-Russia narrative alleging that the West is going to attack Russia.
Ukraine is a sovereign and independent state with a democratically-elected president and parliament. The country is not controlled by NATO or any other foreign organisation or government. Both the EU and the US respect Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Ukraine is a strategic partner for the EU and NATO. It is not NATO that wants to use Ukraine in the war against Russia. This is Russia that undertook a well-documented act of aggression, ongoing since February 2014.
NATO is not an offensive alliance, as implied by the article, but is a defensive alliance in which every country that joins NATO undertakes to uphold its principles and policies. This includes the commitment that "the Alliance does not seek confrontation and poses no threat to Russia".
See earlier disinformation cases alleging that Ukraine "sold itself to external control," it is a Western puppet that creates problems for Russia, and that Ukraine is under "complete subordination to US interests."
