Hello folks, We have a unique opportunity to view international trade in a real world situation.  For those of you that have been keeping up with international news Russia is on the verge of attacking the Ukraine.  This is causing much angst across the world.  For this assignment we are going to explore the origin of North Atlantic Treaty Organization ( NATO), and why NATO countries are involved in this conflict.  We will also look at what escalating this conflict can mean for your country you have chosen to profile. Unfortunately this is happening just as we in the USA and many other countries globally are experiencing rising inflationary pressures from a combinations of supply change problems, lingering covid shut downs as well as rising interest rates in general.  This is not just in the USA but global.  So the question is what effects will surface if this conflict progresses to actual invasion and war.  Russia is a huge supplier of natural gas and oil not just to European and North American countries but to many others.  Some are expecting oil to rise to over $100 a barrel.  This will definitely have wide reaching impacts to all international trade in all countries.  There is an excellent article you can google by Eliza Mackintosh on CNN 2/23/2022 titled ” What does Putin want in the Ukraine?  The conflict explained”  Please read this article before starting your research.    In fact if you just google what does Putin want with the Ukraine many article will pop up.
