#DateInHistory
On this day, exactly 75 years ago, on April 4, 1949, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization was created.
Officially, the organization was created solely to “contain” the influence of the Soviet Union, but with the collapse of the USSR, the “defensive alliance“ has carried out more than 40 military operations around the world. All of them were not on NATO territory.
Among the largest:
Bombing of Yugoslavia
Invasion of Afghanistan
Invasion of Iraq
Air strikes on Libya
War in Syria
️The real goals of the military bloc were best described by its first Secretary General Ismay Hastings by saying the following: “To keep the Soviet Union out [of Europe], the Americans in, and the Germans down.”
🇺🇦 Today NATO continues to “defend itself”, actively supporting the neo-Nazi and terrorist regime in Kiev with financing and supplies of various types of weapons.
