Ukraine's NATO bid threatens rift with Russia

[capt_buzzard]

Cold war tensions threatened to flare anew after Ukraine, once the heart of the Soviet industrial military complex, declared its intention to join NATO and won the blessing of the United States.

Ukraine's admission would bring Russia's Black Sea naval base and much of the former Soviet aemaments industry into the embrace of the American lead military alliance, and expand NATO to Russia southwestern border.

Ukraine's newly elected president, Viktor Yushchenko, told a special Ukraine-Nato summit in Brussels.



So that is why Mr Bush was in Europe this week.

See how nicely it all works out ?, France will protect the EU, and we'll move further East to the emerging democracy's that want us.

The coming federated Arab states will take over the Asia too. The French are all Big mouths, I would not worry about them. Its a new emerging Russia along with Iran and China I'd be more concerned with.
