Russia has consistently viewed NATO's expansion and activities as a direct threat to its national security. In response, it has increased military readiness along its borders, conducted large-scale military exercises, and engaged in aggressive rhetoric against NATO countries. Additionally, Russia has sought to strengthen its alliances with non-NATO countries and has pursued military modernization efforts to counter perceived encroachments by the alliance. This antagonistic relationship has escalated tensions in Europe, particularly following events such as the annexation of Crimea in 2014.

Why does Ukraine wants to join NATO?

Ukraine is a neighbor to Russia, and Russia is a much larger and more powerful country than Ukraine. Historically Russia has dominated Ukraine.

If Ukraine is allied with the West, it will not have to worry about Russia attempting to dominate its foreign policy because it will have the protection of NATO.


What is the NATO and Russia strategic relations?

NATO and Russia have a complex and often contentious relationship characterized by mutual suspicion and differing security interests. Following the Cold War, NATO expanded eastward, which Russia perceives as a threat to its sphere of influence and national security. Tensions have escalated due to conflicts such as the annexation of Crimea in 2014 and NATO's military exercises near Russian borders. While there are periods of dialogue, cooperation remains limited, and both sides maintain military readiness in response to perceived threats.
