US should only involve itself with the conflict if Russia attacks or tries to hurt a NATO country since according to the Article 5 of NATO's treaty says "An armed attack against one or more [NATO members] shall be considered an attack against them all," the article reads. It lays out what happens if one NATO country is attacked. NATO must take "action as it deems necessary." That may include "the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area".]]> 2022-03-09 13:57:30 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086111542 cassidy_thomas0519 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086112459 The United States should continue to limit and ban Russian items, such as gas, as it helps Ukraine a lot. "We are thankful to our American and European friends... for their quick decisions to help us, for their sanctions against the Russian economy," (Yermak). In the same article, "Opinion: As I write, Ukraine leader Zelensky is beside me; we will fight to the last breath" the writer asks, "We also ask the West to increase the nonmilitary costs on Russia." If the United States does this for Ukraine, it would help them out as Ukraine wants to cut Russia off from the SWIFT banking system. ]]> 2022-03-09 13:57:59 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086112459 johnwalker7020 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086114123 I feel like the US should stay involved but on the outside and once Russia stops committing war crimes, I feel like we should just let them have their war. In the article Miranda, Gabriela claims, "Russia produces 10 million barrels of oil a day, which is roughly 10 percent of global demand". In this notion I feel like Biden should get kicked out of office, since he already closed one of our major pipelines in America. He should at least still import oil to the U.S. because out gas prices are sky rocketing, an they will only get worst. But I feel like if we do want to stop trade with Russia, I would say we need to open up the pipeline that he closed and stop worrying about the pollution so much, because there is a lot more important things going on in our present day. ]]> 2022-03-09 13:58:51 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086114123 claudiarussell6951 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086114301 personally after reading "why is Russia invading Ukraine" I think that the united states should intervene. One personal reason is so many lives of innocent lives have been lost. Yes this article highlights how this can negatively effect the world. according to the article, "Putin said he sees Ukraine's interest in joining NATO as a direct threat to Russia but in the past has rejected Ukraine's right to exist." Putin has not let Ukraine leave even though he is not in charge of Ukraine. Hen has stated he will take this a threat to Russia. Since Ukraine is not officially apart of NATO, NATO will not send troops to help. But some of the NATO member counties have sent arms, ammunition's and other equipment. Overall I think American should intervene to help with this problem but just sending supplies and other things to help them win, we don't need to start WW3]]> 2022-03-09 13:58:57 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086114301 tylerjankowski7678 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086114817 2022-03-09 13:59:13 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086114817 ellieteague3465 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086121989 I think that the United States should not step in because the second we do WW3 is more likely to begin. Likewise, in the article, "Why is Russia Invading Ukraine," Miranda says "The U.S. doesn't depend on Russia for major imports. However, financial experts said that turbulent international politics "could cause increases in global energy prices or exacerbate global supply shortages." This shows that America doesn't depend on Russia for much however this war can and most likely will affect the whole world. The united states should only step in when they feel threatened. The united states should aid Ukraine if they feel in necessary said In a televised speech as the attack began, Russian President Vladimir Putin warned other countries that any attempt to interfere would "lead to consequences you have never seen in history." This could be another reason as to why The united States should not step in completely. We do not need to face consequences for other countries wars.]]> 2022-03-09 14:02:49 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086121989 calenqueen8607 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086122968 I think the US should stay out of the actual fighting but we can send reinforcements, but stay out of the fighting till someone comes at us. I feel like us staying out of it is the best thing even though we are still gonna feel some affects like "increases in global energy prices or exacerbate global supply shortages" (Gabriela Miranda). Like we have already seen gas prices have gone up a dollar since last week and they were already high because of biden shutting down pipelines. I just think America should fix all their problems before joining in a war. ]]> 2022-03-09 14:03:16 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086122968 tannerstoutenburg4408 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086134886 Any real intervention between Ukraine and Russia would be seen as an act of war by Russia. Putin even views Ukraine retreating to the defense of a western alliance as a "hostile act." The only reasonable support the US can give to Ukraine is pumping supplies into Ukraine while clearing a path for citizen evac. There has already been trade barriers set on Russia and more are soon to come. ]]> 2022-03-09 14:08:46 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086134886 jacksondebarry3781 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086135736 I think America should stay out of the Eastern Europe conflict until provoked. As stated, "We have been able to withstand intense fighting in recent days despite the vicious brutality of the Russian aggressors, and we will continue to fight" (Yermak). The author is explaining how Ukraine is doing good on their own. I think we should supply Ukraine with some supplies but stay out of the conflict. ]]> 2022-03-09 14:09:10 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086135736 anthonybradberry3534 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086138018 The United States should only help Ukraine for a little because Supplying them with so much of our supplies can make us lose a advantage of protection. The second we step in fully it could start a huge war like WW3. In the article, "Why is Russia Invading Ukraine," Miranda says "The U.S. doesn't depend on Russia for major imports". This shows that The United States should not do to much but aid Ukraine if they need to and if its necessary, Putin did warn other countries that if any attempt to hop into their battle would "lead to consequences you have never seen in history." This should be a reason United States should back off and let Ukraine Fight their own battle.]]> 2022-03-09 14:10:15 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086138018 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086146708 I read "why is Russia invading the Ukraine" and I think the US should continue limiting trades with Russia. "Russia's invasion could also mean another delay to normalcy in the U.S. after over two years of shutdowns and COVID-19-related restrictions"(Miranda).  I feel like the US should at least find a way to provide to Ukraine. Any direct approach would possibly cause a later problem with Russia and the US. ]]> 2022-03-09 14:14:12 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086146708 josiahjohnson6823 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086146745 I believe that in this current state  and time the united states and everyone in the NATO should go back to supplying Ukraine and send out there NATO response force as stated in the " why is Russia invading Ukraine" article  Miranda, Gabriela states that  "  Some of NATO's member countries are supplying arms, ammunition and other equipment to Ukraine. As of February 24, NATO as an organization has not been supplying weapons" and " NATO could be to trigger the NATO Response Force, which can gather up to 40,000 troops" further proving the point that the U.S and the NATO should be involved a little bit more with a matter in which can turn to be a third world war .]]> 2022-03-09 14:14:14 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086146745 tuseanjones3058 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2086146946 The United States of America should pay attention between The war Russia and Ukraine  because risk of the conflict escalating beyond Ukraine is "high," one expert said, and Americans should pay attention to it. "Our focus is not on Ukraine,"  and Russia he said. "It's on reassuring our NATO partners and allies."
As Russia began its invasion of Ukraine, some U.S. officials and analysts were already warning of a possible escalation of the conflict into a wider war. But The United States of America should help Russia because Russia help us with the gas and the oil for the cars and more things to help the people.

Ukraine is a European country that's Europe's problem, not a nations which capitals are near 5,000 miles apart. "We Ukrainians have proved that we are able to effectively repel the invasion force alone" (Yermak). I think we should stop trading with with Russia and cut all there banks off from SWIFT not just a select few, but I think America should stop supplying guns to Ukraine its only making things worse.

If America for example increases its energy production through the use of liquified coal a cleaner natural gas and oil, and refined oil exports to Europe. the Russian economic threat will be neutralized. Then economic sanctions by nations supporting democratic principles will be more forceful and effective against Russia. The United States cannot promote nor encourage the risk of conflict between NATO and Russia.]]> 2022-03-10 00:39:32 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2087157656 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2088246408 I think the US needs to be really smart about how they choose to proceed with Russia. Putin is getting older and feels like he hasn’t accomplished much so he’s carrying on this war in Ukraine that was un provoked. According to the article, the head of the office in Ukraine writes that, “Mr.Putins forces will continue to terrorize the country to induce surrender. If they don’t succeed they will burn it all down. It’s either bow or vanish; no third option is allowed” (Yermak). In the US’s point of view, I would rather do everything in my power to stop the war without putting my troops on the ground and start a world war 3. With that being said I support the economic pressure put on Russia and I would rather pay more for oil and cut off Russias big consumer than Russia advance even more in Ukraine and us have to put our troops in Ukraine. If the war advances in Ukraine and Russia begins to try to overthrow more countries then I would say that sending our troops and NATO into Ukraine would be necessary to end the war and stand up for democracy, but that is not necessary as of now. ]]> 2022-03-10 12:48:48 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2088246408 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2088501448 If i had the ability to choose if america should intervene with the war with Russia and Ukraine i would decide to stay out of it as much as we can. Russia is a power house when it come to war and they have access to many nuclear war heads. There is a big risk factor if america would fully get involve because it would most definitely cause Russia to throw everything they got making problems worse. However i believe the US and other allies to Ukraine should provide as much assistance as possible especially with all the refugees]]> 2022-03-10 14:54:04 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2088501448 garydubose4652 https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2089822453 i think that the US should really contribute to Ukraine and keep cutting from Russia's supply even though Russia has one of the largest oil reserves "Russia produces 10 million barrels of oil a day roughly 10 percent of global demand" that can reasonably explain that Russia is more of a big oil supply and even though the us cutting ties and causing a rise in gas this can cause a ripple in the economy but if they keep supplying Ukraine they would have more of a fighting chance ]]> 2022-03-11 05:04:02 UTC https://padlet.com/warren_clemens/fy7mwadr06ppnbej/wish/2089822453
