For months now, tens of thousands of US and NATO troops have been positioned along Ukraine’s western borders, with the most sophisticated war machinery in the world. Their leaders have issued thundering threats to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Yet, Russia unleashed air power, tanks and 190000 troops and has invaded Ukraine. Ukrainian civilians, reservists and troops are fighting a valiant but unequal battle, nearly 150 civilians including children have been killed within barely three days. So where is NATO and why isn’t it helping Ukrainians fight the Russians? In an exclusive conversation with Padma Rao Sundarji for Times Online, India’s generals Ata Hasnain and Shokin Chauhan provide the answers.

    Wars Created by politicians, Fought by soilders, Suffered by families.

    The answer is simple: If NATO stepped in, it would be WW3 and would soon turn nuclear. Even a private in most armies would know that.
  • Unbelievable but true: there are still people out there worthy of being called humans: they think - they give you real answers (not political bs rhetoric) - and they can see further than the tip of their nose. Respect, generals!
  • Wow finally someone is actually speaking facts on this situation unlike any other media ..... thank you India
  • European here. That's pretty much it, those two Generals tell it straight. If NATO crosses Ukraine's border, Russia will go nuclear and so will NATO in return. However, the other way could be fought with conventional forces first, unless a serious move to invade or destroy NATO cities starts. Then you all wouldn't have to file your taxes any more.

    I wish our media in the US was as straightforward and honest…..
  • @crazypescador
    Those Lit.Gen are very aware of the situation. The simple fact that they observe the economic aspects of the war already tells you a lot about the knowledge of the Indian Army. Very smart and conscious about all aspects. Congratulations to the India and it's competent army leaders from Brazil.
  • I appreciate the assessment of the situation by these Indian Generals. I know India has to deal with two hostile nei

    2003 "We are fighting Iraq because they have nuclear weapons" 2022 "We can't fight Russia because they have nuclear weapons"
  • @modemmann303
    Sitting in Germany. Media gone nuts. Looking for realistic assesments of the situation. Thanks, India ;)
  • @Newsh-kz4ex
    II liked to listen to the thoughts of these wise and experienced generals from India. "Economically and psychologically Europe is not ready for war" As an European I would like to take this as an compliment.
  • Thanks Generals for your professional insight. So glad we in south africa can tap into your news programmes and see things as they are in an unbiased way.
  • @louiseskip3488
    At last two honest military men telling me the truth. Thanks guys. I actually understand what you are saying, without the media hype BS. Australia.
  • @stevenclair5002
    This reminds me of my Indian physics professor in college , they have the ability to break everything down to simple terms
  • @naraithsil
    “Where is nato, why isn’t it fighting back?” Ukraine is not a nato country, you’d think a media organisation would know that
  • @FielValeryRTS
    The two retired generals have spoken. Now let's see what the generals in the comment section thinks... 😄
  • These Indian Generals are very wise, pragmatic and fantastic communicators.
  • Very nice and clear statement of the war at Ukraine, and the cover up, although very open war of NATO and United States on UKRAINE.
  • @Dpradenas5622
    I think that weigh-in from both these Indian Generals was absolutely brilliant and more significant than any other source I’ve heard from since this war began !!!
