In early 2022 the Russian military built up a force fighter jets, air defense systems and 100,000 troops along its border with Ukraine. Military experts say the buildup gives the Russian military an array of options including seizing the entire territory or certain parts within the country. Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union before it collapsed at the end of the Cold War in 1991. The disintegration of the Soviet Union left Russia with a vastly depleted population, territory, and economy. Now Russian President Vladimir Putin is seeking to reclaim some of that glory …

No direct military intervention, there should be a precedent for peace, but once the war is over, we should contribute to the redevelopment of Ukraine
@938QWQZ2yrs2Y
No, but they should provide weapons and training to Ukrainian forces to defend their own country
U.S. and NATO should give Ukraine as much modern weapon as possible, so Ukraine can fully dearest and destroy Russia.
@936NX9Z2yrs2Y
Yes, but only for those who are willing to.
@936KWVL2yrs2Y
The Russian army has been an embarrassment. Ukraine pretty much has the situation in hand
The ukrainian army doesn't really need our help. They've been crushing the Russian army just like the Finns did back in 1940
@9368W6D2yrs2Y
No, it would instigate a nuclear war with Russia
@9368W6D2yrs2Y
No, and Canada should withdraw from NATO and have their own independent foreign policy that opposes the US. We should be allies with Russia and China against American imperialism
@933HBS32yrs2Y
If russia invades a NATO country
@932PQQF2yrs2Y
Not until it makes no difference in our security. If our security is already seriously threatened, then we may as well help
@92W29CRNew Democratic2yrs2Y
As of right now, Ukraine is doing fine against Russia, and NATO joining would only increase the threat of nuclear war
@92V82932yrs2Y
@92TPFLJ2yrs2Y
Only if Russia attacks other European countries, even non-nato allies
@92RMKPK2yrs2Y
no, but provide significant military aid such as weapons and supplies
@92PQBJW2yrs2Y
No. No country should be involved in other countries problems. Their conflict is between them. How has the world forgotten how badly the league of Nations failed. NATO is no different and the actions currently are bringing us closer the the mistakes of the past.
@92PM7QJ2yrs2Y
No, arming Ukraine and supporting it through aid should be prioritized.
@92PCC5Q2yrs2Y
No unless NATO is being directly effected by Russia’s actions.
@92PC7KV2yrs2Y
Only if Russia poses a threat to any other country in NATO
@92NSVSP2yrs2Y
Yes, if they invade a NATO member, such as Poland, Hungary, or Romania. Otherwise, they should keep doing what we're doing now, sending aid/weapons for Ukraine to defend itself.
@92NRJM92yrs2Y
No, Russia has nuclear weapons and they may use them if another nuclear power declares war on them. Western meddling is also one of the many complex reasons why Russia invaded Ukraine.
@92MWQCF3yrs3Y
Only if they have enough spare forces and spare money to do so
@92MTRHH3yrs3Y
within reason and using tactfulness to prevent escalation
@92JWPGRNew Democratic3yrs3Y
Yes, but only to a certain degree
@92HB7CT3yrs3Y
If it escalates further yes, however it us more damaging to do so now
@92CTVPF3yrs3Y
Only when and if Ukraine joins NATO, at which point it will be subject to NATO's collective defense.
@92B4S5T3yrs3Y
No, simply because that would trigger a world war, which would undeniably go horribly wrong due to nuclear warheads. We should instead supply Ukraine with the materials necessary to defend their sovereignty.
@9278BY73yrs3Y
I think they should if Kyiv is captured
@923VLB33yrs3Y
No, this could lead to a new world war and that would be worse
@9235Q2J3yrs3Y
No, this would currently provoke a nuclear exchange
@8ZZSYGK3yrs3Y
Yes but only to help Ukraine, not to harm anyone else.
@8ZZ2TB63yrs3Y
yes, and help with other wars too
@baloneymaloney3yrs3Y
The U.S. and NATO should support Ukraine to help them defend their own country, but not directly fight for them against Russia
Yes, but only if all diplomatic options have been exhausted.
@8ZX5XJM3yrs3Y
No, and we should help Russia
@8ZV5Z3BConservative3yrs3Y
No, are you out of your mind
@8ZSM3NW3yrs3Y
If Turkey won't be in this war, they can do whatever they want.
@8ZSLL2J3yrs3Y
Military supplies and volunteer forces should be sent, but no conscription or officially joining the war.
@8ZBH3YQ3yrs3Y
Not the US because Putin is waiting for it to act so he can use his nuclear weapons, but NATO should
@8Z4X3MK3yrs3Y
I think military force should be a last resort but that other solutions should be discussed to defend Ukraine
@8Z3B7NX3yrs3Y
There is no good answer.
@8YXJYTN3yrs3Y
If it affects U.S. and NATO than yes but their is no direct impact to either than i would say no.
@8YXDJGM3yrs3Y
If it threatens Canadian and U.S. safety
@8YX9G8N3yrs3Y
I think it depends on how bad the invasion gets
@8YWQHXW3yrs3Y
not aware of the situation
@92PSZX3New Democratic2yrs2Y
No, but provide as much aid as possible without risking the start of a larger war
@92569NCLibertarian3yrs3Y
If the war continues to persist then yes.
@923VPBX3yrs3Y
Not unless Ukraine joins NATO
@9228GBBConservative3yrs3Y
Only if the risk possibility is low
