How the West Brought War to Ukraine: Understanding How U.S. and NATO Policies Led to Crisis, War, and the Risk of Nuclear Catastrophe -- Benjamin Abelow - Paperback


"This is a splendid little book, tautly written, logically organized, easy to read...."-Chas Freeman, former Assistant Secretary of Defense forInternational Security Affairs



According to the mainstream Western narrative, Vladimir Putin is an insatiable, Hitler-like expansionist who invaded Ukraine in an unprovoked land grab.


That story is incorrect.


In reality, the United States and NATO bear much of the responsibility for the Ukraine crisis. Through a series of misguided policies, Washington and its European allies placed Russia in an untenable situation for which war seemed, to Mr. Putin and his military staff, the only workable solution.


​In How the West Brought War to Ukraine, author Benjamin Abelow lays out the relevant history and explains how the West needlessly produced conflict, subjecting its own citizens-and the rest of the world-to the risk of nuclear war​.


​Endorsed by Noam Chomsky, Ambassador Jack Matlock, Colonel Douglas Macgregor, political scientist John Mearsheimer, and other leading defense experts and policy analysts, this brief and highly readable book shows how the West caused the crisis and now labors under an existential threat of its own making​.


​How the West Brought War to Ukraine looks beneath the surface of recent events. It lets readers understand the deeper sources of the Ukraine war and provides new insights into how the conflict might be resolved.
