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.
@ISIDEWITH3yrs3Y
No
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
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

I don't think New Zealand as a non-NATO nmember itself should have a view on this
This is a decision that should be made by Ukraine and NATO members. New Zealand shouldn't take a position.
@9RWHKMK4mos4MO
No. The Ukraine essentially caused the current war by an obvious and arrogant movement towards the Russian border. Under Article 5 NATO would be at war with Russia - the only countries that should be able to spark such a tragedy should be blameless - the Ukraine is far from blameless.
@9G5Y4KY 1yr1Y
No, this is based on previous commitment not to do so, that they've broken - with the help of the US
@9F3S3341yr1Y
They should do what they wish.
@9F3Q7XJ1yr1Y
This is none of our business
@9F2H6241yr1Y
Since when does this have anything to do with NZ?
@9F29CSB1yr1Y
This is not a decision that NZ has a call on so it's not relevant.
@9DZ8QMZ1yr1Y
That is a decision for the current NATO members
Do not have an opion on this.
@9DXCW2V1yr1Y
This is the question for Ukraine and NATO and has virtually relevance to NZ.
We have no part to play in that decision
@9DT92DR1yr1Y
@9DRS4P81yr1Y
Yes but they can't activate Article 5 until the war is over so WW3 don't start.
Needs much more consideration. An appropriately tough treaty with Russia might be more constructive.
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).
@9DQV4GN1yr1Y
Yes but it should be decided after the current war ends so we avoid a gird world war
@9DQGSS61yr1Y
Yes but Ukraine can't activate Article 5 until the war is over
This issue should not be decided by New Zealanders.
@9DMBVN91yr1Y
That's for Ukrainians to decide
@9DLZ5VG1yr1Y
Yes, they should join as soon as possible
@9DKBTNF1yr1Y
Yes but if Ukraine and russia are still at war then Ukraine can't activate article 5.
@9DGCHBT1yr1Y
its there choice , not ours
@9DFZ9LX1yr1Y
Not our business getting involved
@9DDKSW41yr1Y
Indifferent, this should be up to Ukraine. They should be ALLOWED to join NATO.
@9DDJCSQ1yr1Y
@9DBQP5D1yr1Y
Yes, once the war is either at stalemate or over
@9D8ZJ4C1yr1Y
We aren't part of NATO so why should our opinion matter?
This is not something we should overly concern ourselves with. While maintaining diplomacy is important, domestic issues are far more pressing.
Only if Ukraine wants to join
@9FJLT8V1yr1Y
Don't have enough information - up to them
Yes, however, not while there is still conflict in the country as joining could provoke more intense conflict.
@9464J742yrs2Y
It’s not really up to nz govt to decide this…
@9FJLWNT1yr1Y
@9FCTL371yr1Y
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.
@9FC64NB1yr1Y
Yes, but only if necessary for their country
@9F95WZG 1yr1Y
This is not up for us to decide. This is between them. We should remain impartial to their decision.
@9F88ZN41yr1Y
Yes , if this is what Ukraine wants
@9F7LFZM1yr1Y
NATO is just a talk fest, Getting nothing helpful done waste of momey/time.
@9F6H8LSRock Vote NZ1yr1Y
This is not a question New Zealand should be involved in
This is an issue for NATO member nations, not for New Zealand.
@9FNDKFS1yr1Y
No, This question should not be remotely considered relevant to New Zealanders.
@9C2MS372yrs2Y
We shouldn’t get involved or try to influence the political decisions of a foreign state.
@946J2D52yrs2Y
Unkriane and NATO.

@93W8VGG2yrs2Y
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.
@8ZS77NV3yrs3Y
Yes, If they qualify and they themselves want to.
@9BZXY4Z2yrs2Y
Yes, though after the war ends, abolish NATO since its purpose would be actually accomplished and it's an holdover from the Cold War
We should let them decide
It is up to their own people
This question is of no relevance to New Zealand.
@9BTXGPT2yrs2Y
Ukraine should choose, we have no part
@9B655HZ2yrs2Y
That is a decision for Ukraine and NATO
@99R6VBD2yrs2Y
This is not up to New Zealand to decide.
@993LGGH2yrs2Y
Pray for the people of Ukraine instead.
@992KJGL2yrs2Y
No, but Developed Democratic countries around the world should pledge to defend it should any other country-especially Russia-attack it again
