NATO’s strategy is to continue the war, not to win Ukraine

According to the achievements of the recent NATO meeting, the member states do not have a clear strategy to end the war in Ukraine.

In this report published by “Amy McKinnon” in Foreign Policy Magazine, it is stated: Russia’s war in Ukraine was the main topic of the NATO meeting in Washington, in which the allies of this military alliance presented plans to intensify aid to Kiev and They offered to create an “irreversible” path for Ukraine towards the final membership in this defense pact.

The measures announced at the meeting, including the creation of a new command in NATO to coordinate military training and arms supply, the supply of F-16 fighter jets and a new security pact, reflect the efforts of Western capitals to change support for Ukraine and stabilize it. It is a long-term program.

But in this meeting, tensions over the Western strategy to support Ukraine were also evident; Military aid has played a decisive role in helping Kiev defend itself against Russian forces, but in reality, it has not been enough to enable it to win the war.

In this report, referring to the opinion of Liana Fix, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, she was quoted as saying: We are basically supporting Ukraine to stay in this war and make some progress, but absolutely for victory. Not in this war. There is no real strategy for this war.

The author said in this report: NATO’s Eastern Front allies, especially the Baltic countries and Poland, have long been calling for increased support for Ukraine. But wealthier allies who also possess the most advanced weapons systems, especially the United States, have taken a more cautious path, fearing the escalation of tensions with Moscow.

Analysts doubt that the measures taken can turn the tide on the battlefield. Rob Bauer, an officer of the Royal Netherlands Navy and head of NATO’s military committee, said on the sidelines of the alliance’s meeting in Washington that “the Ukrainians need more than what we have provided.”

On the other hand, despite the fact that the Biden administration has played a decisive role in warning about Russia’s intentions to attack Ukraine and to attract Western support for this country, it has not done much in planning a plan to end this war. Republicans in Congress have criticized the US government for not having a clear plan for the war in Ukraine. A multibillion-dollar additional aid bill for Ukraine, passed after a significant delay, required the administration to provide lawmakers with a clear and actionable strategy for the war within 45 days.

In the final part of this report, it is stated: Despite the promises of long-term support made at the NATO meeting, critics have questioned the sustainability of such an approach. Eugene Romer, director of the Russia and Eurasia Program at the Carnegie Endowment, wrote in a recent note, “It would be naive to expect that the current level of allied support could continue indefinitely.”

He also said: The challenge facing the allies in this meeting is bigger than anything they have faced since the Cold War. It’s not about enabling Ukraine to fight long-term, but about finding a way to end this war without sacrificing Ukraine in the process.
