Ukraine under pressure in the East, while NATO warns Russia

The US Senate on Wednesday approved the admission of Sweden and Finland to NATO by 95 votes in favor, sending a strong bipartisan message of support for expanding the Western alliance against Russia.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a Democrat from New York, said this is a very important vote for American security around the world.
“Anëtarësimi i Finlandës dhe Suedisë do ta forcojë NATO-n edhe më tej dhe është edhe më urgjent duke pasur parasysh agresionin rus, duke pasur parasysh luftën imorale dhe të pajustifikuar të (Vladimir) Putinit në Ukrainë. Putini po e forcon aleancën e NATO-s”, tha ai.
Shtetet e Bashkuara janë një nga 30 vendet anëtare të NATO-s që duhet të miratojnë pranimin e Suedisë dhe Finlandës në organizatën më shumë se 70-vjeçare, që ka garantuar sigurinë evropiane që nga Lufta e Dytë Botërore. Procesi zakonisht i gjatë i pranimit është përshpejtuar në Senatin amerikan si pjesë e një reagimi të fortë ndaj agresionit të paprovokuar të Rusisë në Ukrainë në fillim të këtij viti.
Përpara votimit, kryetari i Komisionit për Marrëdhënieve me Jashtë Bob Menendez, tha se votimi i Senatit do të dërgonte një mesazh të fuqishëm kundër agresionit rus në Ukrainë.
Votimi do t'i dërgojë “një sinjal botës se ne do të bashkohemi kundër atyre që kërkojnë të destabilizojnë furnizimin me ushqim, që kërcënojnë me uri miliona njerëz në të gjithë botën; të cilët kërkojnë të shfrytëzojnë energjinë si armë në mes të një vale të pashembullt të të nxehtit. dhe që mendojnë se thjesht mund të pushtojnë një fqinj pa pasoja", tha senatori Menendez.
Por senatori republikan Josh Hawley, i cili hodhi votën e vetme kundër ratifikimit, tha se ai nuk ishte në interes të politikës së jashtme të Shteteve të Bashkuara.
“I'm afraid some in this town have lost sight of that. They think American foreign policy is about creating a liberal world order or nation-building overseas. With all due respect, they are wrong...You must work to protect the United States, our freedoms, our people, our way of life. And NATO expansion, I believe, will not do that," said Senator Hawley.
Finland and Sweden applied for NATO membership by ending their neutrality after Russian aggression in Ukraine. Moscow has repeatedly warned both countries against joining the Western alliance.VOA
