Historical Roots Knowledge. NATO’s creation would allow us to understand and analyze the causes and solutions for the conflict in Ukraine and Russia. NATO was established in 1949 by former allied soldiers from Europe, Canada and the United States. The main purpose of NATO in the 20th Century was to protect itself from the Soviet Union (D’Anieri 2019, 2019). However, its missions have been expanded to include the protection of security and liberty for allies via military and diplomatic means.
The past has led to the present
Understanding NATO has helped me understand historic events, such as the rise and fall of the United States, Soviet Union, Cold War and demise of Soviet Union (D’Anieri 2019, 2019). NATO is there to defend the interests of troops that were previously assailants against Russian invasion, particularly. Russia regards Ukraine’s consideration of NATO membership as a threat to its national security. This precipitated the current Ukraine-Russia crises.
An Impartial Perspective
There are many opinions about NATO’s creation. D’Anieri 2019, 2019: The realist argues that NATO was founded by the United States and its allies to counter Soviet Union challenges. Russian-affiliated idealists claim that the Soviet Union was established to restrict the Soviet expansion in geopolitical hegemony. NATO ought to have been dismantled after the fall of Soviet Union. NATO considers Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine a violation the sovereignty of another nation. Russia considered Ukraine part of its lost territory during the cold war.
Absence of influence, perspective and impact
The Russians annexed Crimea to Russia as part of their mission to recover lost territories. They defend the invasion. Because of this lack of perspective NATO was established to protect women’s dignity and liberty from any Soviet Union invasion. D’Anieri 2019, 2019. The NATO formation is missing a perspective that emphasizes human rights violations and respects people’s dignity, autonomy and individuality. Russian aggression in Ukraine will be evaluated based upon the number and severity of the deaths or injuries of Ukrainian women during conflict.
