So even if Ukraine is not a Nato country, a 'US and Nato response' would be in order, according to Petreaus. We'll start leading a Nato - a cooperative venture that would destroy every Russian conventional power we can see and recognize on the battlefield in and also on Crimea and every ship in the Black Sea, to give you a hypothetical.' Petraeus' words came after Putin declared the annexation of four regions encompassing more than half of Ukraine as the conflict approaches its eighth month.
