Kiev Proposes Alliance with US to "Counter Russian Aggression"

[Navarro]

"Rada calls on U.S. Congress to make Ukraine Major Non-NATO Ally ... urged the United States Congress to conclude a mutual defense treaty with Ukraine and grant the country Major Non-NATO Ally (MNNA) status ... was supported by 232 out of the 327 MPs ... 'in view of the development of a strategic partnership between our states, we appeal to the United States to consider the issue of concluding a mutual defense treaty with Ukraine and granting Ukraine Major Non-NATO Ally status,' the Rada said in its address to Congress ... The Ukrainian MPs believe that granting MNNA status to Ukraine and the defense pact between Ukraine and the United States will have a huge impact on countering Russian aggression against Ukraine, deterring the aggressor and preventing the incitement of war in Europe. 'It is in the interests of Ukraine, the United States, Europe and the world,' the statement says. The Ukrainian parliamentarians also note that 'Russia's aggressive policy is not limited to Eastern Europe, it poses a threat to the whole of Europe and global stability.' 'International community solidarity and the U.S. leadership in safeguarding Ukraine from the aggression will contribute to the enhancement of European and world security,' the statement reads."

Kiev has Ben trying to get into NATO for a while.

In this instance, Kiev is attempting to form an alliance with America, not NATO. This would be comparable to the alliance between the United States and South Korea.

Our contractors are already there helping them anyway. Russia wanted to try and copy the Blackwater idea and they have been bit back with American experts in combat with a hell of a lot more experience. They have rapidly trained the Ukrainian forces how to fight a modern war and make the bear pay.
