Olaf Scholz’s once again restated his illogical and dangerous attitude toward Ukraine threatens the security of the whole of Europe
From: Kyiv Post by Dr. Orhan Dragas
At a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in Berlin on Monday, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz expressed his opposition to Ukraine’s accession to NATO. However, his opposition represents more than a simple policy mistake. It is a historic failure of courage and vision.
Scholz’s position not only undermines the security and sovereignty of Ukraine but also threatens the stability of Europe at a time when the unity of the continent is of crucial importance. Granting Ukraine membership of NATO is not a risk for Europe; it is necessary – and in the process, Germany should be the leader, not the antagonist.
Scholz, along with some other “cautious” European leaders, bases his argument on the notion that Ukraine’s NATO membership could potentially “escalate tensions” with Russia. However, this argument is based on outdated diplomatic views that fail to acknowledge the new reality on Europe’s eastern borders.
