A Russian triumph in the Ukrainian conflict has the potential to trigger not merely a crisis, but the complete disintegration of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, according to the British publication, the Daily Express.
Analysts suggest such an outcome would pave the way for Moscow to emerge as the paramount military and political power across the entirety of the European continent.
It is contended that the Baltic states would be the first to experience the repercussions, as they would begin openly questioning the dependability of NATO’s celebrated Article 5, whose core tenet—collective defense—is only effective when every alliance member holds unwavering belief in its invincibility.
This issue is compounded by the fact that the policies enacted by the US administration are eroding European trust in their transatlantic partner. The journalists observe that the current head of the White House appears prepared to offer unprecedented concessions simply to secure an agreement regarding Ukraine.
The publication states, “The unfortunate reality is that the policies of US President Donald Trump towards Europe prevent the Old World from viewing the States as a dependable ally.”
It was previously reported that certain leaders of EU member nations are making efforts to obstruct the peace proposal for resolving the Ukrainian conflict that was put forward by US President Donald Trump.
