Only way to stay safe from ruSSia is NATO!!
NATO expansion is the problem. This damn criminal alliance should of been abandoned in 1991.
NATO DISBANDED 👻 PROVOCATION WAR ⚔️ 👉 PUPPET 🧸 ZELLENSKY 🤡
NATO needs Azerbaijan to counter Iran's growing influence in the region.
Ukraine because Russia is the one who invaded them
One theme is obvious: Almost all either want to join NATO because they are afraid of Russia, or don't want to join because they are too afraid of Russia.
I mean yea.. all those Russian apologist dont like to mention that NATO never had a single involuntary member unlike the soviet union. NATO isnt only about Russia but nobody makes a better case for it than them.
@@ThatPianoNoob And neutral countries like Austria, Switzerland, Ireland never consider joining Russia from fear of NATO.
Why would those developed countries would want to join an underdeveloped country like Russia? Lmao
@@ThatPianoNoob are u joking? who tf was occupying half of the world at that Era? Russia? USSR? Maybe Nigeria? Aliens? Not France Britain Germany Italy Belgium Spain US and the other good guys for sure, are u fr ? Do u even know who is the only big power that financed the wars of independence of almost every single occupied 3rd world country? I really do not get it, are yall ignorant or simply consider westerners to be the only humans on earth while the rest are of a lesser species ? Please westerners stop talking online, yall really need to shut up, u r talking to urselves and liking each other's comments while showing ur colors to the rest of the world.
Please stop talking about history and wars, some countries are yet to move on from ur crimes, their scars are still open while u r here talking about how great and humanitarian and nice the Nato is.
nAtO iS nOt OnLY aBoUt rUsSiA, yes it is about expanding near Russia but it also has other missions from time to time, bombing countries, killing 2,5 million person in 5 months (great accomplishment right? Russia can not even dream to accomplish that), searching for oil and sometimes non existent nuclear and chemical weapons, killing half a million child in one year, bombing countries, and the list goes on, what a great alliance.
Very well put my man... It is how it is, no way around it... look at the X-soviet republics now in nato ,they have warned about Russian imperalism for years.. they told us that Kreml didnt give up its imperalist Dreams due to trade or desarmament.. only felt more secure..
The people of Azerbaijan are very intelligent, I like how they don't simply answer the question yes or no, but have a deep understanding of what it would actually mean to join NATO for their own country
I agree. Really like these guys 👍 Don’t let Russia take over! You deserve freedom and happiness!

The responses from almost everyone in this video are significantly more thoughtful and sensible than responses from people who are interviewed on the street in Russia. I have no idea how many people they interviewed before they took excerpts to make this video, but if you interviewed the same number of people on the street in the USA or in Germany to ask their opinion on a serious political question, you would not get responses as thoughtful as the ones from the people in this video in Azerbaijan.
Greetings and warm regards to our eastern neighbors from a Pole living in the USA.

Why not?
Because Moscow is richer than all of Azerbaijan combined?

Azerbaijanis rock, such considered responses. Sharing a border with the newly imperialist Russia would make any country nervous and want to join.
"newly imperialist Russia" It never has been otherwise. They just had to catch their breath after the soviet union collapsed.
Amazing hypocrisy. So you talk about Azerbaijan being safe from "Russian aggression" while literally they are launching aggression against Armenia, a Russian ally...
If Azerbaijan is justified in taking karabakh, then Russia is justified in taking Donbass region.
Also, it's funny how you completely forget about Iran. If Azerbaijan makes any attempts to join NATO, hell, Azerbaijan would get invaded from two sides, Iran and Russia...
Azerbaijan would be mostly a tool against iran btw.
@@eliasziad7864 "Launching aggressions" lol. Poor Armenia lost the territories that they invaded just a few decades ago with Russain support. So sad. And you think Iran can actually attack Azerbaijan with a 10 million Turks inside their borders and Turkey watchnig carefully? Keep dreaming about just like when you were dreaming about winnning the 2020 war. "We are winning. Azerbaijan is losing so many men. They will crumble any minute. Then we'll march on Baku". Pathetic, really.
@@eliasziad7864 Karabakh is still inernationally recognized as a territory of Azerbaijan, while Donbass is internationally recognized as territory of Ukraine.
@@deadcell4297 But nobody in Donbass wants the "Ukrainsky Mir"
Actually Azerbaijan has territory in Europe approximately 10-15% North part of Azerbaijan is considered as a part of Europe.
As a citizen of Azerbaijan, I would not want this. because I don't want my country to be used by another state .
Russia has imperial ambition. They may blame NATO, but they had imperial ambition before NATO existed ... and that's why NATO was created. Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia have done well with NATO.

@@SG-js2qn the person you're calling a chat bot made a lot of sense. It's only people that fear honest and open conversations that feel the need to label people that they disagree with to delegitimize them.
@@SG-js2qn first of all, do you know the difference between the Russian federation, the Russian empire and the USSR? If you do, you'd understand that the Russian federation that exists today has no imperial ambitions or they'd have taken Kazakhstan and Belarus already, taking advantage of their respective coup attempts to entrench themselves. To compare landmass expansion, the Russian federation has added only the Crimean peninsula, while NATO has added 15 countries in 25 years. Waiting 8 years for the Minsk Agreements to be implemented is not what nations with imperial desires do. You're just not up for honest conversation so you repeat slurs and slogans to drown out the intellect from discussion.
Incredible how all people, especially the young ones here understand geopolitics while most young people in western countries would be "what is NATO?"
What a beautiful people, they know what they want and they know how to articulate their own thoughts.

I like how the people interviewed actually express their opinions and the logic behind them. They are not afraid to think for themselves and to say what they think. In that respect, they are more American than Americans. Ask similar questions in Russia and see what kind of wishy washy answers you get. Putler has the Russian people scared to think or to speak.Right there is a fundamental difference and a chasm that can never be bridged, between the Azeri people and Russian people.
Azerbaijan shares much of their culture and ethnicity with Turkey. I think they should seek union with Turkey before seeking to join NATO. Then on the other hand, Turkey is a NATO member, so why NOT Azerbaijan?
Very interesting answers.
Street Talk (formerly Moscowstreets) is getting better ..so many places covered ! Thank you
Thank you)
so good u only have one sub and i bet its this something here...legit
1:08 A common misconception. That wasn't NATO or any related to it structures, but individual member states. Germany and France for example openly opposed the Iraq thing in the UN. So joining NATO does not give you any obligation to participate in those type of interventions, but it also doesn't stop you from doing so. It's all sovereign states at the end.
Exactly NATO is a purely defensive allegiance. NATO did become involved in stopping genocidal war crimes happening in Kosovo in 1999 by bombing the failed state Yugoslavia.
@@williamzk9083Bro what? You are telling me to stop genocide by bombing serbians . Russian peacekeepers stopped the violence in nagorno karabakh. They didnt take any side. Did nato do that. They just slaughtered serbians because of their woke idiotic philosophy
@@arnavsharma1877 slaughtered serbians ? There were around 400 civilian death, mostly in Kosovo itself. This avoided new genocidal acts of Serbs against others, is that a woke thing ?
Woke pseudo-ideology didn't exist back then and even today most people oppose it even in western countries lmao.
@@arnavsharma1877 lol go look up how many Serbians died, then go google what Serbians did to Bosniaks and were planning to do to Kosovar Albanians, first of all. Secondly, go look up how many civilians died in the second Karabakh war because of Azerbaijan, then the other way around. Thirdly, look up how many civilians suffered from the first Karabakh war. And of course last, but not the least, you, Indian, of all people talk about slaughter? Your compatriots organise attacks on the ppl because of the effing cows, go teach someone else your fake humanity, start with your brethren who attack minorities, destroy towns and mosques and marginalise your own brothers just coz of their distinct from your paganism faith. Sickening hypocrisy. No effing cow or statue or imaginary whatever in wherever is worth even a drop of human blood.
If Azerbaijan actually joins Nato it would be yet another strategic blunder for the “master strategist” of the Kremlin and another country that Russia won’t take back in the future. Although it’s extremely unlikely that would happen any time soon, since Azerbaijan is involved in a conflit against Armenia, and apart from that many Western countries won’t allow an authoritarian state to join the alliance. I wish all the best for the Azeri people 🙂
No it would be a strategic blunder from NATO, one more animal country in NATO and it’s a circus! We already have turkey!
Thanks for support🙏❤️
Azerbaijan has been very vocal as one of the so-called non-aligned countries, it would only want to join NATO if there were a serious rethink of foreign policy or change of government
NATO technically is the one who can’t let go of the past. NATO was meant to counter the Soviet threat yet there isn’t any Soviet threat
@@Nikolaievich9837 there is clearly the Russian threat..and the Chinese threat.

I have visited Baku a few times. Love the people. Hope that you can free yourself from the Ruzzian yolk.

Am surprised that both young and old, male and female seem very positive about NATO. Unfortunately i dont think joining us would happen anytime soon.
Being Neutral is the best, After getting back Karabakh, we will just chill on our own, so no one can bother us about joining NATO or be pro-russian.

Do you seriously believe what you are saying? Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan were letting Russia to carry weapons to Armenia during the war
1:08. NATO did not attack Iraq. Most NATO countries opposed the invasion, though many provided forces for the subsequent attempt to keep the peace. The NATO intervention in Libya in 2011 was to implement United Nations Security Council Resolution 1973. It was under UN auspices, and not a NATO initiative.
Russia did not attack Ukraine just provided forces for the subsequent attempt to keep the peace.
tell this nonsense and lies to your parrot in a cage !!! Open UN Resolution 1441 and read carefully!!! all US-led NATO operations were conducted as illegal gang incursions to seize oil and other resources!! NATO is a bandit group,

Well informed people who has not been brainwashed , not like Russia
Overwhelmingly "yes" to joining NATO except for those wanting a union of Turkish people instead of NATO, or those afraid of Russia's reaction. I was surprised, assuming this is a representative group. I wonder what the answer would be if the people of Belarus were asked about NATO and / or the European Union?
Union of Turkic, not Turkish people. Big difference.

Very interesting and positive responses, thank you for sharing this.
Couple of random thoughts and observations: 1. Being a member of NATO does not obligate you into participating in initiatives (France's refusal in the early 2000's would be a perfect example, and they were correct in refusing) 2. Both Canada and USA are located outside of Europe, thus dispelling the idea that a nation must be located in Europe to be a NATO member. 3. Beautiful tree-filled park setting, and beautiful people. 4. Somebody tell that one gentleman that his refrigerator door was left open.
Maybe a better way of asking the question would be, 'would you prefer Azerbaijan to become a NATO member or would you prefer Azerbaijan to become part of the new USSR?'
Fascinating answers
As an Azerbaijani i would say it would be the best decision for our country to join NATO. Both because of russian endless imperialist ambitions and also nowadays we face so much issues with Iran which can result in conflict. Azerbaijan is geographically destined to have the same interests as NATO.
Russian imperialist ambition or American imperial ambition? Who controls the world currency and why? Who uses gunboat diplomacy?

I didn't know there is such thing as Turkic union between the caucasian countries. This partly explains Turkey's behaviour inside NATO and towards west in general. Perhaps even Erdogan's election victory. These countries do not want to be part of the west or Russia's sphere of influence. They have their own regional identity.
You were right. Turkic union doesn't exist. It is a dream or plan to do such a union in the future. Some Turkic people (Turkey, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, etc) want it, others don't. And of course Russia strongly opposes the idea of such a union.
P.S. There is Turkic council, but it is more about culture, then military or economics.

YESSSSSS! Hurry up!
really inspiring to hear the first guy speaking with such sense and rationality! good to hear!
Living inside a NATO country myself, id be glad if Azerbaijan joined. Id be glad if NATO changed as well and became the Global Treaty Organization GTO. One nice thing about NATO's treaty is that even if a member state decides to invade another member state, the country that was invaded would get the all of NATO's support (excluding the invading country), The more countries that join the bigger the risk at invading any country, If the UN worked like that where any country that invades another would then face the wrath of the rest of the world militarily and economically, there'd have been no invasion of Iraq by the US in the 2000s, no invasion of Kuwait in the 1990s, no invasion of Ukraine in 2022. (At least id assume so using the same reasoning that stopped the US from invading China after it tried to get the USSR to join it in doing so only to have the USSR threaten the US with a nuke attack if it did and or like when years after the USSR asked the US if the US would join it in invading China only for the US to refuse and threatened to nuke the USSR if they invaded China. MAD works (so long as there are rational leaders)
But NATO countries don't accept dictators... And not take the power by force by military...
The more the better.
Ridiculous how you idiots talk about how Azerbaijan should join NATO to defend against Russia or Iran, yet Azerbaijan attacked a CSTO member, Armenia, which means in an event of article 4, Russia would have to legally destroy the Azeri Army.
Japan is getting real close with NATO, attending the upcoming meeting, I could easily see a charter change with Japan, South Korea, Australia etc joining.

All of those concerns of Azerbaijanis are legitimate knowing that Putin have officially announced non-recognition of sovereignty among neighbors Ukraine, Georgia & Moldova.

And things can change. Aliyev can be overthrown...who knows?
Have you been in Azerbaijan? I think a lot of them wish for a more democratic system, the regime might not be open but people are very welcoming and open.
Before candidating they would need to settle durable peace with Armenia.
@@liamros3562 yea i'm not deeply familiar with the situation there
NATO has had multiple dictatorships, including a founding member, Portugal
@@liamros3562 Turkey is a member and it became a member when NATO did not have the requirements of today. Turkey also became less democratic while being a member.
As an Azerbaijani I can say that it is definitely NOT something what Azerbaijan needs now. Hell NO! Its going to create a mess rather than add security. And reasons are simple, Russia has a military presence in the region and even in war of 2020 it was shooting its long range Iskander-M missiles to Azeri cities (thanks to Israeli AA, most of them neutralized), some of the missile fragments shown in the park of Victory in Baku. Now.. how on Earth is Azerbaijan going to defend itself during the bureaucratic approval process from every member of NATO before actually BECOMING a member? Have you guys thought of that? Can you even think two, three steps ahead? And I am pretty sure that countries like France will be delaying the approval by as long as possible...and by that time Azerbaijan will be under missile and drone and land forces of attack from both North and South from Russia and Iran.
Its typical thing of western countries, lure someone into some club and then throw it under the bus. And then what will happen? Biden will come and with his whispering voice tell to Azerbaijan that its doing a right thing and he supports it? Or Azeri flags will be raised in brussels or Geneve or wherever? How would that help? And also, for those who are going to even dare to argue with me, here is another question to you from me: Georgia (our great friendly country) officially announced and declared that it wants to be part of NATO in early 2000s. What happened? Did you guys accept it? What happened to pro american president in Georgia? (Saakashvili)... oh right... he is in damn jail! Did you help him? Did west take Georgia in NATO?
Other people here might write that "hey look..Finland joined and it was quick" and the thing is, each geographic region is different, its much more difficult for Russia now in 2023 to start full blown invasion of Finland, also there are no occupied regions within Finland with pro russian forces and russian boots on the ground there, and territory is bigger and easier to defent to Finland. Azerbaijan (and so is Georgia) is different story. Also there is no "Iran" close to Finland which would immediately start military operation with Finland should Russia give signal. But in case of Azerbaijan, there are two hostile countries on North and South with million-strong army. And you offer Azeris to throw themselves under bus? for "security"? come on... I Understand that those people you ask say yes, but they have not thought about it deeply, and those are just regular people who know nothing of how military strategy, war and politics works.
so.. please keep hands off Azerbaijan OK? How about you first make Ukraine win, get its land fully back, then do same for Georgia and then you come back to Azeris asking same question, and for now, Azerbaijan already has its allies - Turkey (whos soldiers ready to fight and die for Azerbaijan) and Pakistan (same thing) and ..Israel (no matter how strange it might look to someone but Azerbaijan and Israel are very close friends, and I love it). We do not need impotent and picky NATO joining process which will bring more bombs on Azeri cities than security before Azerbaijan joins.
Good people
As of now a defensive pact with Turkey would be plenty to deter Russia tbh.
If Georgia joins NATO, then it would be hard for Russia to attack Azerbaijani. Georgia wants to join NATO.
Might be difficult for Georgia to do that as long as they still hold claim to South Ossetia and Abhkazia, which have Russian troops there.
I think Georgian people want to join EU and NATO, not so sure about its government, especially not recently.
Ridiculous how you idiots talk about how Azerbaijan should join NATO to defend against Russia or Iran, yet Azerbaijan attacked a CSTO member, Armenia, which means in an event of article 4, Russia would have to legally destroy the Azeri Army.
Hey yankee how about you let us finish the war against serbs so we can destroy RS entity in BIH
Special thank to Putin. Now every countries near Rusia want to joint Nato😂
Not if Turkey gets it's way Islamophobes get NO membership!!!!
nice

Azerbaijani president is very strict on “no military alliances involvement”, and I think that’s the best way to go. No need to join Nato or Russia as militarily ally. Also Azerbaijan is not that dependent on Russia. They are close allies with Turkey, and that’s more than enough.
I think there is a little confusion for some as to what NATO membership is. Some seem to think of it as a economic and political union as well when it is a primarily a mutual defense agreement that has economic and political preconditions for membership meant to ensure a nation is stable and not corrupt. A large part of the reason for this is to avoid a constant turnover of government in the member as well as ensure the member can live up to its obligations to the other members.
The real accomplishment of NATO has been that it has kept member nations from fighting with each other because not only are they obligated to defend each other from outside aggressors, but also from an attack from a member state against another member. This has been a feature that has encouraged member states to negotiate and has led to the formation of other treatise once thought impossible like the European Union and other economic pacts.
Oddly it was even proposed that Russia join NATO soon after the collapse of the USSR as their membership would have settled a lot of the security issues of Europe through the very means of mutual defense. But the economic situation in Russia was in upheaval and corruption was rampant, making it impossible to seriously pursue at the time...and we all know how that has evolved from there.
Love to have you. Sticking point is Armenia. Peace between the two and you're both in.
Generally membership in the EU solves that problem (as it did between UK, Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland) . EU membership confers membership of Schengen Zone which means you can work and live anywhere anyway. No one is greedy of the other guys land or sea front. Expect the Russian Intelligence services to stir up tensions to prevent this.
Sooner or later, the western nations will have to choose between Armenia and Azerbaijan. I think the politically expedient choice for NATO would probably be Azerbaijan, as it is the stronger and less Russia affiliated of the two. But choose as we must, morally both choices feel awful.
If you side with Azerbaijan, you condemn the ethnic Armenians in the disputed region, and perhaps beyond, to a third, final, and probably one sided Nagorno-Karabakh war that will cement an autocrat's grip over his victorious nation, and leave his enemies to his tender mercy.
If you side with Armenia, you effectively enshrine what happened in the 1990s, a breach of the international codes of conduct of the kind that Putin would love nothing more than to justify as he wages war on Ukraine. Another breach in the already damaged firewall that is supposed to separate a modern rules based world order, unfair and flawed it may be, from the older, more violent predecessor based on the sword and the gun.
A very reasonable assessment. Perhaps the best way forward is to side with neither, but try to bring people together.
This might be quite difficult as, like the Jews in the Middle East, only one side has suffered a genocide and so has very raw feelings, all the more so as that genocide in this case was at the hands of their Turkic neighbours, not distant foreigners.
As a distant foreigner who has not suffered genocide, it is hard for me to fully comprehend the difficulties here.
Why not join both?
@@deyanpetrov4447 That's actually not a bad idea. Because in 1952, Greece and Turkey joined NATO and they hated each other.
@@deyanpetrov4447 Armenia is a member of CSTO. Russian led version of NATO. They won't join NATO too easily. As Azerbaijani, I think It would be better if we stay neutral. We still have a dictator that is ruling the country. The other thing is that he is ruling country pretty good as we see his foreign politics. The thing is, people below poverty line suffer a lot. Especially Azerbaijan's future is in danger knowing Armenia, Russia and Iran is against it. Azerbaijan is like a wall between them that is bothering both Russia and Iran. Thankfully we have close allies such as Turkey, Hungary, Pakistan, Turkic countries, Britain, and Israel. That is why I thing we may have war with Iran and Russia as well. As we saw that Iran is already using propaganda videos against Azerbaijan and threatens to Invade it and Israel is the start.
@@lordofvurgun187 Thanks for the information, sounds like a tense situation, hopefully there are no wars coming your way 🙏
It would be nice if Azerbaijani joined NATO, but honestly they're a pretty strong country who fight like warriors. In a conventional war I think they could take Russia. The whole world see's how weak russia is.
Ridiculous how you idiots talk about how Azerbaijan should join NATO to defend against Russia or Iran, yet Azerbaijan attacked a CSTO member, Armenia, which means in an event of article 4, Russia would have to legally destroy the Azeri Army.
Certainly a marked difference between old people vs young or middle aged people. I was shocked that one old guy thinks Pakistan would come to Azerbaijan's aid against Russia, lol. The only Turkic country with real serious military power is Turkey but would they really take on Russia in a full on war to save Azerbaijan? As for the NK problem it seems from statements from Armenia they are willing to recognize Azerbaijan rights to the region in exchange for some ethnic Armenians rights guarantee, that would fix the NATO requirement of no territories in dispute requirement to join, that is what has stopped Ukraine and Georgia, Russia did that on purpose to stop them from joining NATO.
Nato is a political and military alliance. Joining it won't make Azerbaijan developed. EU membership can make your country economically developed. An alliance/union of all turks countries is the key to national security. Turkey, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgystan, Turkmenistan should form something similar to Nato/ODKB.

All Azerbaijan needs is to not have any border disputes to be a candidate . Get the ball rolling already , join NATO !
but they have big territorial conflicts with Armenia
@@elcerrado Yes the timing is horrible for such a thing , and it makes you wonder if Russia has something to do with the conflict since the Ukraine war is happening at the same time.
It needs more than that. A democratic government with the military under civilian political control, minimal corruption in government, and I daresay much else.
I think the democratic political system requirement could pose an issue.
@@AlexKall I will quote google with this " It is resolved that the form of government of the independent Azerbaijani state is a democratic republic." I am assuming that google is correct .
Damn, Azerbaijanese look and seem so different compared to Georgian Azeris, they're like Turks, more Modern. Georgian Azeris are quite different, majority of them dress similar, have same hairstyle, same beard style and generally aren't very modern at all, so this was surprising to me.
In Azerbaijan we call them Ayrım.Their accents and culture different,but they r Azerbaijani too,Qarapapaq tribes.
@@Mokoko_704 Makes sense
@@Veli1989 That makes sense. People in the video seemed very light skinned compared to Azeris I'm used to seeing. Also most of the Azeris here aren't secular from my experience. Seeing the girls dressed and behaving so openly was another surprise to me as I rarely see an Azeri girl out in the public alone, let alone dressed like that with makeup. obviously there are more secular, modern Azeris as well, most of them probably reside in capitol city Tbilisi though.

apply !
They take about NATOs wars.
But don’t talk about the current Turkish war in Syria.
Don’t talk about the the huge terrorist problem in Pakistan, and how Pakistan trained the Taliban.
Which caused the all the problems in Afghanistan. 😂
People see what they want to see.
Turks and Azeris are like that. They have the same expansionist mentality as Russians, just fewer opportunities to see it through.
They talk about NATO's wars, but in doing so show they know nothing about them. Just because a NATO member participates in a war doesn't mean that it's a NATO war.
@@istvanglock7445 Most Russians don't even understand what NATO is.

Go to Armenia next and ask these questions
I think there is some confusion between the EU and NATO. Before 2014, Ukraine tried to join the EU for the economic benefits. Russia's invasions have convinced them (and others) it's best if they join NATO.
this is a lie, Ukraine tried to join NATO. There was no Russian invasion; after the revolution, a civil war broke out in Ukraine.
Well , it'll be a new topic for another "Special military operation".
I just want to have a stable country man
I think Azerbaijan is a.t.m. relativly safe. Georgia is in much greater danger.
But if nobody stops Putin, he will go on bit by bit.
2:15 Perfectly thought out answer. I think NATO would exactly demand the same. Turkey is a difficult partner. Except from being a NATO member, there could be the status of close partnership an opportunity for Azerbaijan.
You are still in danger. Russian imperialist wars of expansion often are conducted over 200 years taking province by province. This is how they invaded Ukraine in the first place: bit by bit. If defeated 20 years latter they come back for revenge. If successful 20 years latter they come for more. They're now annexing Georgia kilometer by kilometer by laterally moving fence posts bit by bit. If they had of succeed in Ukraine you may have been next.

Hilarious!
Is it even Possible for them to join? I mean they do have a small portion of land in Europe so I mean technically
I think a lot of people are confusing NATO with the European Union. And the US with NATO. The US is only a member of NATO and not NATO itself. The US went into Iraq not NATO. Some NATO members sent troops but not in the name of NATO.
The USA is 90% of NATO's strength
@@quartermaster1976 I would be interested in where you got your info. According to NATO's web site the US contributes 16.3444 % to the NATO budget equal to Germany's contribution.
@@conman5135 That's office stuff bureaucracy not combat power count how many aircraft carriers Germany has compared to the USA.
@@quartermaster1976 NATO does not control US aircraft carriers. You need to research what NATO can and cannot do. Just because a nation is a member of NATO does not mean that their military is subjugated to NATO. I'm a member of a credit union. Does that mean I can tell other members how to save or spend their money? You're confusing NATO with Nation States. They are two totally different things. Just as some Nations who happen to be members of NATO send support to the Ukraine does not mean NATO is sending that support. NATO and the EU or totally different organizations that have totally different objectives. One concerns inself with self defense and the other concerns itself with mutual economic growth.
@@conman5135 The point of NATO is that it has combat power to protect from Russia and outside the UK and France that is extremely limited. Look at their operations in KFOR, SFOR and ISAF it was US air and satellites that keep it afloat Germany isn't equal to the USA except in the administrative budget at the NATO HQ.

Most people confuse nato doctrine with EU doctrine.

Is it just me or does Azerbaijanish sound like a mix of Turkish, Iranian and Arabic ? Greetings from Austria. 🇦🇹 👍
Azerbaijani is in deed a Turkic language which is very close to Turkish. But it has been influenced in many ways, even grammatically, by Persian.
Thanks for the greetings, btw. We greet you back.✌🏽
I'm an Azeri, but I live in Germany.
Through history, many nations lived inside Azerbaijan. Persians, Georgians, Turks and Arabs. Today people of Azerbaijan use Turkic language and they pretty understand other people from different Turkic country.
@@barbar5822 Hey mate. I think you are new to terms bu there is no Azeri there is only Azerbaijani and you are Azerbaijani, not Azeri* :)
Yes, I can easily understand them as a Turkiye Turk.
Not, really.... they can understand and fluently talk only with Turkish people, as their language is very similar with Turkish and Crimean Tatars in Ukraine, as well as Kumiks in the North Caucasus and Gagaus in Moldova. They can pick up only some words in Iranian and Arabic languages
Why not... But they should first and before anything else settle the dispute and conclude real peace with their neighbors in Armenia.
Joining NATO is the most stupid thing one could do to its country.
NaTO should've been disbanded when the Warsaw Pact did.
It's obsolete.
