"Well said, #Garry_Kasparov, #Ukraine is the only country doing what #NATO was designed for, standing up to #russian terrorism and aggression!"👏👏👏

"If it weren't for #Ukraine, #Russian tanks would already be in #Poland. #Ukraine has been fighting for all of #Europe for four years, and we are still discussing whether to accept it into #NATO?" — #Kasparov

Speaking at the #Halifax International Security Forum, world chess champion and #Russian opposition figure #Garry_Kasparov sharply criticized any attempts to pressure #Ukraine into making peace on unfair terms.

#Kasparov reminded that today #Ukraine is the only force holding back the #Russian army and #Putin, preventing them from advancing further into #Europe.

"It's not about how much weaponry and ammunition you have. It's about whether you are ready to fight and die.

You have a #Canadian brigade in #Latvia. What orders does that brigade have? Will they open fire if the #Russians cross the border? We know the answer. You will deliberate, and it will take forever," he said.

#Kasparov emphasized that #NATO was created with one purpose – to protect free #Europe from #Russian aggression.

"#Ukraine is the only country fighting, and we are still discussing: whether to accept them into #NATO or not! #Ukraine is the only country that embodies #NATO's purpose!
