  1. Current events

  2. Built up tension in Ukraine • In Ukraine there is a risk of a cold war starting. The Ukraine president Victor broke a promise with the European government in hopes of increasing his favor with the moscow government.

  3. A cold war…? What is that.. • A cold war is a state of political hostility between countries, charcterized by threatsand propaganda ( propaganda can be anything from rumors to political cartoons)

  4. 5 messages for a new Cold War • Nobody's scared of America, but American and European values hold strong appeal. • You don't mess with Putin without paying a price. • If you are a vulnerable state, you may regret surrendering nuclear weapons. •  Don't expect support from all international peace activists. • The use of brute force to resolve conflicts is not a thing of the past.

  5. Nobody's scared of America, but American and European values hold strong appeal. • The Ukraine president broke a promise that they had made with Europe in hopes that it would increase his favor with Moscow. They were fed up with Moscow's corruption and unfair involvement with them and thought if they broke their promise with europe, moscow would change

  6. You don't mess with Putin without paying a price. • Even if Moscow were to relinquish all control of Ukrainian territory today, Putin has already achieved a main goal. He has sent a clear message to countries that were once part of the Soviet Union, that they cannot defy his wishes without paying a painful price. • In that sense, Putin has won.

  7. If you are a vulnerable state, you may regret surrendering nuclear weapons. • Ukraine gave up their nuclear weapons in hopes of russia to stay out of their borders. • Moscow would have thought twice about invading if ukraine had the nuvlear weapons.

  8. Don't expect support from all international peace activists. • Instead of taking a clear stance in support of a country with invading military forces on its soil several “peace activists” have decided to mimicked putin’s line;blaming the u.s.a. for the crisis.

  9. The use of brute force to resolve conflicts is not a thing of the past. • One day, if government’s fighting moves in the direction we all wish, countries will solve their disputes through diplomacy and negotiation. • Sadly, that day has not arrived. If Putin chooses he can have a cold war.
