As expected Vladimir Putin lead Russia has started full scale military invasion on Ukraine in the intention of capturing entire Ukraine.
Russian military is now specifically targeting on the Ukraine’s Air Defense Systems, military installations & infrastructure facilities as well as it’s aviation facilities to weaken their military’s offensive and defensive capabilities.
Prior to the war, Russia has already mobilized around 2 lakhs military personnel and the advanced military armaments along the Ukraine Border.
Ever since Russia mobilized it’s military along the Ukraine border, the leaders of U.S. and European Nations have been speaking with Vladimir Putin in different times to avoid a bloody war between Russia and Ukraine.
During the discussion, Vladimir Putin put forward following demands to the leaders of U.S. and the European Union to address their security concern immediately:-
- Russia Putin demands guarantees from the European Union and Ukraine that it will not join NATO and demilitarize Ukraine and become a neutral state.
- Asked NATO to stop their further expansion to Ukraine.
- Asked NATO to cease it’s plan to deploy the land based intermediate range and shorter- range missiles in such areas that would allow NATO or Russia to reach the other’s territory.
- Asked NATO to desist from carry forward military cooperation with Ukraine and other nations that were the part of Soviet Union earlier.
Instead of addressing Russia’s concerns and demands through diplomatic channel, the leaders of U.S. and the European Union completely neglected entire demands of Russia and proceeded further with their earlier plan to induct Ukraine into NATO.
As far as Russia is concerned, Ukraine is the security shield of Europe and Russia can’t compromise Ukraine to joining in the NATO group.
Russia very well aware that once Ukraine joins in the NATO group, then NATO will create considerable security problems to Russia from Ukraine. In such situation Russia can’t wage a war against a NATO member country like Ukraine.
That is the main reason, Russia is trying to capture Ukraine now itself and to install a Russia friendly government in Ukraine.
Prior to start attacking Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin has already recognized Ukraine’s separatist-held territory Donetsk and Luhansk as “independent”.
These two Russian supported self proclaimed Republics are situating in eastern Ukraine where Ukraine government and separatist forces have been fighting since 2014.
More than 1400 explosions have already been taken place ever since Ukraine Government and Russian backed Separatists forces started fighting since 2014.
In 2014, Russia attacked Ukraine when its pro-Russian president was overthrown and the war in the Ukraine’s east region has caused the death of about 14,000 people.
Over the years, Russia resisted Ukraine’s move towards NATO and European Union. Many times Vladimir Putin stated that the present Ukraine regime is a puppet of the West.
All these years, U.S. and it’s NATO allies have been utilizing Ukraine regime as a pawn to carry out military threat to Russia.
But when Russian military attacked Ukraine, U.S. and it’s ally NATO refraining from supporting Ukraine militarily.
It seems Vladimir Putin will not stop the war against Ukraine unless Russia is getting complete control of Ukraine and it’s capital.
