What Lies At The Root Of The Conflict In Ukraine? | Raisina Dialogue

Russia Ukraine War | Ukraine Crisis | Conflict in Ukraine | Ukraine Russia War | Raisina Dialogue 2022 |
From the NATO-bashers to Russian dissidents, West-is-best brigade to Russian revanchists, all thought the war should end at the point it stood. However, their motivations were not so aligned.
For much of the West and Africa, President Putin was singularly blamed, placing the war in the realm of the irrational, and thus, beyond that of justification, as a kind of barbaric mistake that serves neither country’s interests. Igwe argued that both Russia and Ukraine would be taken back at least 20 developmental years. At the root of the conflict was a basic zero-sum calculation that seemed more zero-zero.
Otherwise, the conflict was said to be born of Russian security concerns, enflamed by the eastward expansion of NATO. A select few saw this as a legitimate jus ad bellum. For the Russians, this conflict is a great balance of power exercise-inseparable from decades of Russian attempts-to achieve geographical security from a combative and encroaching West. There was not a single mention of denazification, fascism, or much at all on Ukraine as a culture or threat in its own right.

Refusing to look at historical context of Russia/Ukraine conflict knowingly is pathetic. NATO expansion + noncompliance of Minsk agreements + killing of Russian speaking population eastern Ukraine + banning Russian language despite being 60% same as Ukrainian.

[@jetli740]

[@jasonbarima8779]

[@shauryakhatana]

True brother west thinks Asia and Africa are fool but it’s not 1960 most of the world is free to decide and not a colony of west anymore. And we can clearly their real motive.

[@jetli740]

every one of these so call expert not able to answer what cause the conflict.

[@thirdstar9255]

if you're an "expert" you're nothing but a liar and belong in prison.

[@abhaypatel4292]

Oh it's simple..as Russia is getting much weaker in it's position year on year.. NATO is pushing it's borders

[@gopalramanathan7062]

At least India’s Raisina Dialogue provides a platform for all to express themselves.

[@vka3]

None of the panelists pretend to be familiar with historical context of the Russia/Ukraine conflict. One well known Prof Mearsheimer is an authority on it but not invited here. It does not include Russian/Chinese sides either. Every panelist is pro Ukraine or toeing US official line for fear of US sanctions. Indian officials tend to play very cautious to avoid siding with any.

[@abhaypatel4292]

Ah nope

[@abhaypatel4292]

@@vka3 i guess Russians were invited but Chinese I don't know about that

[@21dolphin123]

facinating not one knows the recent history of the conflict

[@VicharB]

As I see over half of the experts are not well traversed in the subject, yet they have an expert opinion. Laughable.

USA USA USA all the way

[@ianthesiow3013]

The (USA) America call it "Liberation" instead of "Invasion". That was what US call it in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia and the list goes on... Why the double standard? Confused... Please enlighten. Genuine question... Instances of the United States "liberated" or overthrowing, or attempting to overthrow, a foreign government since the Second World War.
