a Ukrainian dude from Kharkiv Region wrote an official letter to Stoltenberg saying that he wants to join NATO and is willing to offer his plot of land in his village for a NATO base at no cost.

  1. I, Marchenko Oleg Viktorovych, a citizen of Ukraine, would like to enter the NATO bloc, and to transfer into the free lifelong use the land, that I own by right, 8,13 hectares, located by the address: [redacted] for the army base of NATO to be deployed.

  2. Russian bots like to pretend that Kharkiv is pro Russia. But Kharkiv isn’t. You have people in Kharkiv willing to give up their family property but NATO isn’t even willing to provide Ukraine a Membership Action Plan that was promised back in 2008. Shameful.

  14. You just *know* this thing is going to go down in history. I can just picture people on the space internet in 2100 posting it to r/HistoryPorn and everyone there will think it’s super tragic and interesting.

    And we *lived* through it.

  15. I have a friend who went to Ukraine some time ago and he said to me the entire country turned their heads towards EU.This post bring joy to me but also makes me understand what he truly meant.

  18. God bless you guys in Ukraine, all my support for your country, if a war happens and you’re going to the military to fight the russians my prayers are with you guys

  24. Jesus, hope they don’t face any adverse consequences for that in the future.

    Also, it’s fucking shameful how little Europe and the US is doing to support Ukraine.

  26. Georgia wanted to join NATO too. One of the NATO clauses says that no country with an outstanding territorial dispute (coughcough, crimea, donbas) can enter NATO since that’s certain to drag NATO into a war. NATO doesn’t actually want to have to fight Russia, they’re not going to make any kind of exception to this.

  38. I lived near Kharkiv 15 years ago, but on the Russian side of the border. Made a lot of Ukrainian friends and can understand a little bit of Ukrainian. Great people there. All the power to this fella.

  41. This is not surprising. Despite all their talk about “Ukraine shall not join NATO”, Russia’s actions are only proving why it’s necessary for Ukraine to join NATO.
