NATO's Goal Is To Perpetuate NATO, Says James Carden

James W. Carden, former advisor to the U.S. State Department, argues in the American Conservative that NATO considers itself to be the most successful alliance in history, but any success has come from caution, not from bellicose conferences, territorial expansion, or “rolling back” the Soviet Union. There is no NATO success in Ukraine—no victory on the battlefield, an entire generation is lost, another generation will be needed to undo the destruction to the nation, and meanwhile NATO has increased the risk of a full scale nuclear conflict. But no matter how bad NATO has handled the problem, NATO’s solution is always more NATO. More NATO weapons, NATO jet fighters, NATO training, and full NATO membership for Ukraine.
