After the occupation and annexation of Crimea in Ukraine, Russia implemented a second similar scenario. The Russian intervention in the two regions held by the separatists began. This intervention was continuing yesterday afternoon. It was not possible to capture the true face of the event in the statements made through different channels. What is certain is that there was no serious reaction from the UN, EU and NATO to Russia's intervention in Ukraine. It can be said that NATO did not include Ukraine and pushed it to the side of Russia. However, when Ukraine continued to challenge Russia despite this push, the invasion began.
 
Until the issue reached this level, the EU, USA, NATO and UN did not and could not show serious resistance that goes beyond words. Russia started the invasion, with the USA and other international organizations' preference for silence, and thus, in particular, it implemented its plan to cut Ukraine's connection with the sea and imprison it between Russian territory. It was as if the West had sacrificed Ukraine in this regard as a result of an agreement reached through diplomatic means between the USA and Russia in return for the countries of the former Soviet Union that they had taken into NATO, and it was left to Russia to invade this country. In summary, we can say that the agreement between the USA and Russia, which dates back years, to divide the world as an area of ​​exploitation, was still in effect. How did the world follow the developments silently apart from some protests in the occupation of Iraq, and the chain of events that eventually extended to the invasion of Iraq by the USA and the execution of President Saddam? In the recent tension between Ukraine and Russia, international organizations and countries, which we mentioned, did not take moves that could deter Russia... The fact that it only talks about a number of sanctions shows that Ukraine was left to Russia for sure, until the occupation of Ukraine came to an end. The event shows this.
 
In his statements, Putin emphasized that they were against the inclusion of Ukraine in NATO at every opportunity and that this had red lines, and that he started the attacks against Ukraine, but the fact that no serious action came from NATO, the EU, the UN and the USA shows that Russia had previously attacked Russia. It seems that the way has been cleared for the invasion of Ukraine.
 
At this point, the answer to the question of whether Ukraine's NATO membership can bring a solution to the problem gains importance. First of all, if the Western bloc wanted to claim Ukraine, they had to take a step before the invasion movement started and get Ukraine as a member. Because, according to the NATO convention, if one of the member states was attacked, they had the right to respond. However, it has to be said that Ukraine has lost a position to preserve its NATO membership, after stalling it so far. If this is an omission, it is a serious mistake. If the events came here as a result of an agreement with Russia, it would not be wrong to say that a second end awaits Ukraine, like the occupation and annexation of Crimea.
 
All this shows that the colonial powers continue their strategy of supporting each other, which they have pursued for years. As such, we can say without further ado that such events seem to continue without a new structuring in the world. Because the colonists only understand power. Other than that, there is no measure that they respect. They have shown this several times. Those who ignore the claims that NATO was established against injustices, even the occupation of countries, cannot have any justice-based practices that they can give to this world. For this, the whole world now needs to hold its head in both hands and voice their objections to what has been done to revise this corrupt order. Otherwise, occupations and massacres will continue.
