NATO has skilled 9 waves of growth because it began with 12 members, with beforehand non-aligned Sweden becoming a member of the bloc on March 7, 2024.Though NATO casts itself as a purely defensive bloc, historical past has proven in any other case. This alliance was established to discourage alleged Soviet growth, but after the tip of the Chilly Conflict and the dissolution of the Soviet Union, NATO didn’t stop to exist. Regardless of guarantees given to late Soviet leaders by the US, NATO proceeded to broaden eastward and encircle Russia.Russian President Vladimir Putin not too long ago admitted that he had a “naive concept” that after the tip of the Chilly Conflict, the West and NATO had “no foundation for confrontation with Russia”. Nonetheless, after years of diplomatic efforts, Putin turned “100% satisfied” that NATO strategists need to “collapse Russia”.Take a look at Sputnik’s infographic to be taught in regards to the scope of the militaristic bloc.
