Should the U.S. remain in NATO?
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is an intergovernmental military alliance based on the North Atlantic Treaty which was signed on April 4th, 1949. It is a political and military alliance of member countries from Europe and North America that agree to provide military and economic security for each other. NATO makes all of its decisions by consensus and every member country, no matter how large or small, has an equal say.

@Jones4Potus2024Independent 2yrs2Y
Yes, but we should lower our financial contribution
@8HR8JJF4yrs4Y
Yes, but the United States should not be responsible for funding 50% or more of NATO's operating budget.
@8WBW8DY3yrs3Y
Yes, but pressure other countries to increase their financial contributions
@9S2PDWW8mos8MO
The United States has been in NATO since its founding at the end of World War II and we have been its biggest contributor since then. The United States should remain in NATO, but several things have to change. The first thing that needs to happen is an all countries in NATO must increase their contributions, by increasing their military and or their military industrial complex to provide arms and equipment either for their own military or to help Is the United States in its role. The second thing that must happen is we must change the mission of NATO, NATO was originally founded to be an alli… Read more
@9DHT8VH2yrs2Y
yes but make them pay their fair share
@8Q3YPW74yrs4Y
Yes, but only on the condition that the other member states are required to maintain their budget quotas and armament preparation. The United States should no longer be the primary armer and cash cow for the alliance.
@B37QC4F1mo1MO
I think that we should just all get along and everyone should be nice to one another I think war is dumb and we should rely more of trade then war like we did back then
@9D6WJ2L2yrs2Y
Yes, and NATO should expand.

NATO Gives Ukraine Permission To Strike Targets Inside Russia With F-16s
@9CJ6CB61Y
No their statement refers to the thought that NATO was starting WW3, which is false, alongside the fact that one of the two is creating the fighting forces, and it’s not NATO.
@Patriot-#17761Y
It's a generalisation based on dear experience, sir, dear, dear, experience.
@9CJ6CB61Y
Experience that I share, but I don’t view the problem to be their own laziness, I view the problem to be what perpetuates it in the first place, and the far back roots of this issue.

Trump is planning to pull the United States out of NATO.
@DejectedBureaucr4t1Y
It would seem some bad actors in our world want WWIII.
While Putin does his best to destabilize the Middle East. Trump will do his best to destabilize the entire West.
NATO is the only thing that has kept the West safe from invasion since it’s implementation in 1949.
@ProportionalValentina1Y
Net beneficiary of all this is China. For the time being anyway.
@DejectedBureaucr4t1Y
They sure are. It's been claimed they're moving away from antagonistic Wolf Warrior to something more diplomatic and professional.
They have come somewhat near huge uprising at times the last year or two with previously unheard of mass protests too.

Yet we still hold the largest economy on earth. I’d love to see the irony of this situation if our places were flipped.
@RebelScum761Y
In response to your assertion that allowing Russia to attack Ukraine could lead to instability that effects us, I must point out that the most lethal threat to stability our Republic faces is the unprecedented debt of $34 trillion dollars – your personal share of that is $109,000 – every last American bears the brunt of this debt, and you, as a so-called "libertarian" are proposing that rather than reducing spending at this horrible time, when we're on the brink of the worst depression in world history, that we ship hundreds of billions of dollars MORE to fund the… Read more
@9CJ6CB61Y
Our national debt doesn’t have a deadline to be paid, only a risk if it is not. We have the money to pay it, it’s called the rich population. We can reduce it overtime, but once again, just as you claim I failed to mention other parts of your argument, you failed to mention that we have made a deal to finance it because that was the terms of the past confrontation with Russia. If we are willing to leave people in a country that has not been the aggressor to lack their own civil liberties, than we are simply a “freedom-for-me-but-not-for-thee” kind of country. Peace is… Read more

The POTUS can't unilaterally leave NATO so you can stop screeching about that nothingburger any day now.
@ThirdPartyRalph1Y
“ there won't be a peace deal due to Ukraine/Russia priorities and interests.” Ukraine is running out of soldiers. They are using middle aged men. They will have to negotiate soon
@AloofDelegate1Y
Not yet. They just passed the law that denies passport services at embassy without military registration. Which means military age men hiding abroad will have their visas invalidated.
They will fight to the last Ukrainian, and Russia is fine with it. So 2 more years or so.
Putin Prefers Biden To win US Election Over Trump
@NominationJay1Y
Remind us, How many dead Russians thanks to Biden's help for Ukraine ??
@LoyalPear1Y
In a war caused by Nato and the USA's bio labs in Ukraine! There is a reason so many of our supposed allies are looking to join Brics,
@NominationJay1Y
You know why Putin didn't invade while Trump was there ? Because for Trump, Putin had a much bigger mission, the reason why he helped him to win in 2016 = divide, weaken and destroy the USA from within. And by George, was Trump doing a good job and is still trying !
Moderators Omit Ukraine War from VP Debate
@Patriot-#17766MO
Imagine if Russia created a military alliance with Canada, Mexico, Cuba, Argentina, Brazil, and just about every other country on the Continents of North and South America, called the Continental American Treaty Organisation. Imagine we wanted to join this organisation, but they openly derided, disparaged, and excluded us, for some unknown reason. Then, imagine that all of these countries in CATO became openly hostile and exclusionary towards us, but in Canada, a pro-American leader was democratically elected. Russia reacted by sowing the seeds of rebellion and anarchy and staging a violent… Read more
@LibertarianBrett6MO
It's true that Yeltsin expressed interest in NATO cooperation, but let’s be clear: Russia never made a formal application to join the alliance. Yeltsin himself was inconsistent—while he spoke of cooperation, he also pursued policies that alarmed NATO members, like the brutal war in Chechnya and meddling in neighboring states. Russia’s political instability, economic collapse, and military aggression under Yeltsin made NATO members wary of integrating such a volatile state into a defensive alliance.
Also, NATO is a mutual *defense* pact, not an aggressive one. It doesn… Read more

Russia’s political instability, economic collapse, and military aggression under Yeltsin made NATO members wary of integrating such a volatile state into a defensive alliance.
Then if NATO was consistent, it wouldn't allow Zelensky's one-party dictatorship that has cancelled elections, instituted comprehensive conscription programs that have cost tens of thousands of innocent people's deaths, banned 11+ opposition political parties, controls a total monopoly over the Ukrainian media, and is relentlessly persecuting the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, to join NATO. But in truth… Read more
