군사 대응도 불사…푸틴, 우크라이나 집착하는 진짜 이유
Now it’s time for On Point, where we speak to experts to delve deeper into the biggest news stories in the spotlight right now.
Russia and Ukraine have been locked in a bitter tug-of-war since Moscow annexed the Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula in 2014.
It had largely gone quiet for a number of years, but in recent weeks, tensions reignited over Moscow’s troop deployment near Ukraine’s border.
Russian President Vladimir Putin is pressing the U.S. hard for security guarantees that would stop NATO expanding east to Ukraine, which Putin views as an effort by the West to encircle Russia.
NATO and Ukraine have so far insisted they will not be swayed by Moscow’s threats, adding NATO membership is open to any qualifying nation, including Ukraine.
So where does this situation leave us and could the tensions bubble over into something more serious?
For the answers to these questions and more, we are joined by Mark Barry, the Associate Editor of the International Journal on World Peace. Good morning, Mark.
Let’s start with the question on most people’s lips. Are we about to see Russia invade Ukraine… again?
Considering the idea of Ukraine possibly joining NATO is nothing new, can you walk us though what changed in recent weeks to prompt Russia to deploy troops to the border?
Russia largely blames Ukraine for the crisis, and NATO as well, for cooperating with Kiev. Can you understand Putin’s frustrations with what he sees as NATO’s steady encroachment toward Russia?
With the two sides – NATO and the U.S. on one side and Russia on the other – unlikely to budge on their demands, an upcoming meeting in Geneva between the U.S. and Russia is garnering a lot of attention. Do you have much hope that the meeting could potentially diffuse the situation?
Thanks for your insights That was Mark Barry, the Associate Editor of the International Journal on World Peace, on the ongoing tensions between Russia, Ukraine and the West.

Korean propaganda media
Super support Ukraine NATO USA from South Korea!!!! 🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇸🗽🗽🗽🗽🗽
This is a very sober analysis and contribution that many should pay attention to. Crimea was Russian territory until Nikita Khrushchev gave it away to Ukraine in 1954. So come 2014, Russia got back what belonged to them, to begin with. Second, history shows that western powers have always harbored some ill-will towards Russia. The French Armies under Napoleon moved all the way from Paris and invaded Russia in 1812 as did Hitler and his German armies from Berlin in 1941. So Russia has always played defense against invaders. The question should be….why do these western powers always interested in invading Russia? Why? There are no Russian missiles on the borders of the US…say in Canada or Mexico but there are US missiles close to Moscow. Why? When the Soviet Union tried to install missiles close to the US in Cuba in 1962, under Nikita Khrushchev, the world almost went to war as JF Kennedy-US President would not accept an adversary bringing their military assets close to the continental USA. Now, why is the USA doing the same thing to Russia that they didn't like themselves? When Putin says this is a matter of security for Russia, he is right and should be listened to. That does not mean that one agrees with him on everything but his security concerns are more legitimate. What is the US doing over there, thousands of miles away from home in the front yard of Russia?
Mark is seems to be well paid by Putin !
Putin is doing everything according to communist Ideology where he wearing democratic cloth but he is true old fashion soviet communist inside !
That is why his actions and what old soviet era communist done is 100% similar !
It is 1000% good thing people and governments in the Eastern Europe Embraced Democracy and Free Market !
Like NATO said it is up to other countries whether to apply for NATO and Join European Union !
Putin don't have any right to say about it !
Eastern European Countries thinking about their security heavily since they know well about Putin Russia than anyone else !
They have very bitter memories with the Soviet Union ! So they have to join NATO for their security as sovereign nations !
Nothing of these will happen if Trump was the President ! They cheated the Election to get rid off the Trump !
Why can't the USA back down over a country on the other side of the world…………….. Can you say NEO-con?
Putin 🤟
Yeh, word 'expert' this days is a key word, no matter how much bs they produce they are experts. Well done.
Russia will devastate the USA. The USA lost most of their wars and the wars they did not lose took excessively long.
Of course Russia has a point. The US would never stand for Russian troops on their border.
Either security guarantees or nuclear radioactive ash we are pertty sure we know which one to pick
Every modern day problem is because of some expert… Read Thomas sowell's intellectuals and society.
🤠

I wonder how the US is going to disconnect Russia from Swift? Swift is headquartered in Belgium, and the servers are in Russia. In any case, swift will be connected to the national payment system or to the Russian-Chinese payment system and the dollar will collapse along with the Euro.
i love PUTIN 💕😘💕😘💕😘😘😘
Just IDIOTS do not understand , that Putin is a good guy and NATO is North Atlantic Terrorist Organization.
If Russia invades Ukraine, as a Somalian American I have no choice but to go to Ukraine and fight for their freedom.. F**k Putin
Russia and the West should cooperate and share common benefits instead of fighting one another.
It will be better for both Russia and the West, even the world.
Making war is not beneficial if it leads to total destruction for both sides.
Want my opinion who cares less we focus on this the less we have to here about it nothing big going to happen just a political pissing contest
Biden busy sniffing hair. Americans confused with gender pronouns. Putin laughing all the way to the bank.
World 🌎 Prof Valerie Fink President Putin is waiting to see what the troops are their to protect his country that is true see what He has to go through peaceful for Russia he is going to wait until he see why best interest would apply for Russia
Japan has opportunity to take over Kuril and Sakhalin In east sector…
Usa is no longer super power of the world. That they can do what they want. An USA. Is. Frighten..
Take Russia off the Swift and it will kill European economy as a whole in the process. Swift is an independent institution from America, so I do not see swift listening to America and take Russia out of Swift, because they know very well it will harm Europe more than it will harm Russia.
I don't understand what kind of idiocy Western politicians have? To protect themselves from the Ukrainian army and its terror, residents of Donbass have long received passports of the Russian Federation, and are citizens of the Russian Federation.Inciting the Ukrainian army against the residents of Donbass is legally a terror against the citizens of Russia.And legally, no one will be able to challenge Russia's right to protect its citizens.Therefore, the only reasonable step is to force Ukraine to implement the Minsk agreements and negotiations with Donbass.Everything else is the organization and incitement of terror against the citizens of Russia.Despite the fact that Russia is free to protect its citizens in any way.Well and sanctions against Russia for trying to protect people from total murder are the height of the moronism of European politicians.
The United States is using Ukraine for military pressure on Russia. times have changed, Russia will respond with a strike of nuclear hypersonic missiles ON THE TERRITORY OF THE USA. a demonstration of the complete defenselessness of the United States will be a warning strike on the nuclear test site in Nevada.
Putin is making a mistake here. The Ukrainian people are united and supported by the west and they will fight to the end. All the tanks, planes, and bombs will not work if Putin seeks to take over Ukraine. Putin will lose horribly.
It was a break up more than a collapse. Russia let the USSR break apart after Germany was reunited.
