@BizSuitStacy rubbish. Nato does not encroach. Countries have to apply to be a part of nato and have to meet certain criteria to be accepted. Nato is a peace keeping organisation and does not want war but peace. Putin is a psyco who wants to force ukraine to be absorbed back into russia. He is a modern day hitler who needs taking down fast and the sooner the better.

@kinkymale MATO is a peace keeping force, That is the funniest thing I’ve heard someone say, in a very long time, you need to get more informed,

@kinkymale Here's the history of "the peace keeping force" advancing it's interests through Europe.
1949: The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is founded to deter Soviet expansion and a revival of European militarism. The 12 original members are the United States, Canada, Britain, Belgium, Denmark, France, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway and Portugal.
1952: Greece and Turkey join in the alliance’s first expansion.
1955: West Germany joins NATO. In response, the Soviet Union and seven countries in Eastern Europe form the eight-nation Warsaw Pact.
1982: Spain becomes the 16th member of NATO.
1991: The Soviet Union collapses and the Warsaw Pact is dissolved.
1994: Finland and Sweden join NATO’s Partnership for Peace program. The following year they join the European Union, effectively ceasing to be neutral, but remaining military nonaligned.
1999: Three former Warsaw Pact nations — the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland — join NATO.
2001: Article 5 in the NATO treaty, which stipulates that an attack on any NATO member is an attack on all, is triggered for the first time after the 9/11 attacks on the United States.
2002: The NATO-Russia Council is formed to help NATO members and Russia to work together on security issues.
2003: NATO takes command of the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan (ISAF).
2004: The biggest NATO expansion to date as seven countries become members: Bulgaria, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. The latter three are the only former Soviet republics to have joined the alliance.
2008: NATO countries welcome Ukraine and Georgia’s aspirations to join the alliance, angering Russia. In August, Russia wins a short war with Georgia over the breakaway regions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia, which Moscow recognizes as independent states.
2009: Croatia and Albania become NATO members.
2011: NATO enforces a no-fly zone over Libya. Sweden takes part with fighter jets on reconnaissance missions.
2014: NATO suspends most cooperation with Russia after its annexation of Crimea.
2015: NATO ends the ISAF mission in Afghanistan. The alliance remains in Afghanistan to train local security forces until the Taliban takeover in 2021.
2017: Montenegro joins NATO.
2020: North Macedonia becomes NATO’s 30th member.
2022: Sweden and Finland explore the possibility of NATO membership after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Take a step back and look at what happened in 2014. Obama's Under Secretary of State, Victoria Nuland, engineers a coup to oust pro Russian president Viktor Yanukovych and install an anti Russian gov't.

Look at all of the regime changes that occurred in the middle east over the last 20 years. How did those turn out?
Now you want to see a regime change against a nuclear super power? Congratulations on winning the stupidest idea imaginable award 🏆

@ididntknow nato doesnt start wars, russia does. that is proven. nato does not go looking for countries to join. countries apply and nato says yes or no. nato was formed because of russian aggression, its alway russian aggression by the sound of it. Putin needs to be got rid of, full stop
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@kinkymale Would you say America shows aggression ?
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@BizSuitStacy some great facts there, brilliant, some people just don’t like facts
BizSuitStacy · M
@ididntknow It's scary. Denying NATO aggression is bad enough. Promoting Russian regime change risks nuclear holocaust. Putin doesn't blame Ukraine, he blames the west. Guess where the nukes will go?

@ididntknow I would say that the usa seem to think that they are the police of the world. That war with iraq, for instance, was unjustified and our dickhead in charge of us, the uk, blair was as much of a warmonger as bush and needs putting in jail for it.
