Yes

Putin can nor be trusted. Ukraine deserves oyr support. Nato: if you dont understand the need gor NATO, go ask the Baltic states, Finland , and former Warshaw pact countries. They will remind you of why Russian expansion neess to be kept in check

Especially due to the fact that we are going to be entering a world in the next 30 years where I think we are going to be drawing up a few more battle lines, and considering that this is one of the largest wars that's occurred in Europe in the last 100 years, using NATO the way that it was intended to be used (literally the way it was intended to be used protecting Sovereign Nations against imperialist expansionism from Russia, and in some cases China)is a good idea. We can think about NATO being a system to prevent expansionism from China although they're unlikely to do it militarily. I think it's incredibly important that we allow and foster those democracies in those threatened countries to provide those people with some level of self-determinism that they would be denied otherwise.

No

 @9FQP23MACTdisagreed…6mos6MO

We shouldn’t be involved in a war so far from our region and are too small to be part of nato. Waste of our taxpayers money

 @9FCFQGCOpportunitiesdisagreed…6mos6MO

There is no reason that another country can determine via threat of military force another sovereign nation's right to join a military alliance. Even regardless of all the history between Ukraine and Russia, especially where Ukrainians were forcefully deported from their own country while part of the Soviet Union and replaced with Russian Nationals who are now used to justify invasion in Eastern Ukraine.

Russia has no right to tell another country who at can and cannot associate with and it is especially egregious that it's considered in any way justified for it to invade that countr…  Read more

No, this should be decided after the current war ends so we avoid a third world war

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...2yrs2Y

No, and abolish NATO

 @9FR9VQ4Greendisagreed…6mos6MO

Putin is dangerous. Ukraine needs support from demicratic european countries. Nato is required to avoid russian attempts at expansion

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...2yrs2Y

No, there is too much corruption in Ukraine

 @9FTGSKLACTdisagreed…6mos6MO

Just regulate corruption out of their system - have stringent checking and greater transparency of transactions.

 @9G5Y4KY answered…6mos6MO

No, this is based on previous commitment not to do so, that they've broken - with the help of the US

 @9FGTDFRACTanswered…6mos6MO

Yes, however, not while there is still conflict in the country as joining could provoke more intense conflict.

While Russia's invasion of Ukraine is completely abhorrent and unjustified, Ukraine's territorial dispute with Russia even before Russia's invasion regarding Crimea already disqualified them. Perhaps at peace and with no territorial disputes, Ukraine should join NATO.

 @9FCTL37answered…6mos6MO

No. This would be foolishly dangerous and would risk global nuclear war. I never realised how powerful ideology and propaganda could be until I saw the growing disaster that is the unfolding Ukraine war.

 @9F95WZG answered…7mos7MO

This is not up for us to decide. This is between them. We should remain impartial to their decision.

 @9F7LFZManswered…7mos7MO

NATO is just a talk fest, Getting nothing helpful done waste of momey/time.

 @9DXCW2Vanswered…7mos7MO

This is the question for Ukraine and NATO and has virtually relevance to NZ.

 @9DRS4P8answered…7mos7MO

Yes but they can't activate Article 5 until the war is over so WW3 don't start.

 @9DRF8CNNationalfrom Washington answered…7mos7MO

Needs much more consideration. An appropriately tough treaty with Russia might be more constructive.

 @9DQXFPVNationalanswered…7mos7MO

After the Russo-Ukraine War ends, or if Russia decides to escalate the war beyond return (e.g. use of chemical, biological or nuclear weapons).

 @9DDKSW4answered…7mos7MO

Indifferent, this should be up to Ukraine. They should be ALLOWED to join NATO.

 @9D9JNB8answered…8mos8MO

I don't think New Zealand as a non-NATO nmember itself should have a view on this

This is not something we should overly concern ourselves with. While maintaining diplomacy is important, domestic issues are far more pressing.
