Nearly 14,000 people have died in the conflict, and there are 1.5 million people internally displaced in Ukraine, according to the Ukrainian government. this is the part of the article that is interesting me to in the article . ]]> 2022-02-22 17:30:53 UTC https://padlet.com/slohman/yzrpjfshiqm9g072/wish/2061046906 kaylie gandara https://padlet.com/slohman/yzrpjfshiqm9g072/wish/2061062307 S: "An escalation in shelling in eastern Ukraine and a vehicle blast in separatist-held Donbas has heightened fears that Moscow could be stoking the violence to justify an invasion." This piece is significant becaus eit states how the invasion is trying to be justified. I: "Russia was quietly mobilizing several thousand more. US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken cautioned that America had seen no immediate sign of a Russian military pullback, noting, "Unfortunately, there's a difference between what Russia says and what it does." This piece is interesting because it displays how Russia was not honoring it's government's word. T:''Despite receiving funding, training and equipment from the US and other NATO member countries, experts say Ukraine would be significantly outmatched by Russia's military" This piece is troublesome sounding due to the fact that the article believes Russia's military system is more powerful than Ukraine's and they would be victorious if things became worse when trying to overthrow the independent country.]]> 2022-02-22 17:38:45 UTC https://padlet.com/slohman/yzrpjfshiqm9g072/wish/2061062307 Peter Cota https://padlet.com/slohman/yzrpjfshiqm9g072/wish/2061062972 A Interesting thing that I have found out from reading the article is More than 150,000 Russian troops now encircle Ukraine.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, NATO pushed eastward, bringing into the fold most of the Eastern European nations that had been in the Communist orbit. In 2004, NATO added the former Soviet Baltic republics Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Four years later, it declared its intention to offer membership to Ukraine some day in the distant future – crossing a red line for Russia.

Russia has been tightening its military grip on Ukraine since last year, amassing tens of thousands of troops, equipment and artillery at the country's gates. The aggression has prompted warnings from U.S. intelligence officials that a Russian invasion could be imminent. A whirlwind diplomatic effort to ease tensions has failed to come to a conclusion in recent weeks.
interesting-Putin has been trying to increase pressure on the West for months without ever firing a shot or letting a tank cross the border with Ukraine. Moscow has been accused of waging a hybrid war against Ukraine, using cyberattacks, economic pressure and propaganda to sow tensions.
troublesome-The U.S. claims Russia did not withdraw its troops, but quietly mobilized thousands.

In December, Putin presented the US and NATO with a list of security demands. Chief among them is a guarantee that Ukraine will never enter NATO and that the alliance rolls back its military footprint in Eastern and Central Europe -- proposals that the US and its allies have repeatedly said are non-starters.
Putin has indicated he sees NATO's expansion as an existential threat, and the prospect of Ukraine joining the Western military alliance a "hostile act." In interviews and speeches, he has emphasized his view that Ukraine is part of Russia, culturally, linguistically and politically.

I- An interesting fact about this article is that Putin stated that the troops he sent to the Ukraine border are only there to "protect" if Ukraine decides to take action but, Putin is sending way more troops and military equipment than necessary just to "protect."
