Will There Be A “Ukraine” After War To Join NATO?
547 days have passed since what Putin called Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine, a military operation that has now made the voice of the Prime Minister of Hungary, Viktor Orban, has said: Ukraine is bankrupt and has lost its sovereignty, and now The war is led by America.
He added: Ukraine should be prevented from joining NATO and this plan should be canceled.
In December of last year, Ibrahim Kalin, the spokesman of the Turkish government, said that any peace plan for the war in Ukraine is doomed to failure if it does not include Russia’s opinions. The Turkish government intended to play the role of a mediator between Ukraine and Russia and bring the views of the leaders of the two sides together to reduce tensions and present peace plans.
In addition to these comments, international analysts named inflation, economic stagnation, and the intensification of political disputes in the field of energy management as the three main pillars that have pitted European leaders against each other and made them think of solving the war in Ukraine using diplomatic tools.
European countries have suffered more than other countries from the war in Ukraine due to their strong dependence on Russia in the field of energy. The extensive sanctions that Europe and the United States have imposed on Russian oil and gas during the war and until now, not only did not stop Russia, but with the increase in the price of energy carriers, European countries were hit by these sanctions more than Russia. A decrease in economic growth, a sharp increase in inflation, an energy crisis, a multifold increase in electricity and gas bills, the bankruptcy of tens of thousands of companies, and the occurrence of strikes and mass demonstrations have been only part of the economic results of the Ukrainian war for Europe.
The emergence of the energy crisis in the world can perhaps be called the most important effect of this war in the world and especially in Europe. Widespread Western sanctions against Russia caused a sharp increase in electricity and gas bills in Europe and power shortages in some areas, Kyiv was shut down, and Zelensky said that 40 percent of Ukraine’s energy infrastructure was destroyed in Russia’s attacks on the country.
