Remember NATO's Founding Objective Was To Prevent The USSR From Advancing Into Western Europe

Yet if you look at the timeline, particularly the last 35-40 years, you can see NATO advancing into eastern Europe. Remember this when people say Putin's invasions were unprovoked.

I find it interesting that almost all of the countries crying about ukrainian sovereignty, are in support of the PRC's "one china" policy/takeover of Taiwan...🤔

the US, Japan, Australia, etc. are the only countries that oppose it... so much for solidarity among the rest of our "allies"...

I'm aware there's lots of misguided people that have a plan what to do if and when violence happens.

How many people have a good plan to accomplish a stable and lasting peace?
@SteelHands Good point. War is profitable for central banks that loan money to both sides...for the military industrial complex...for politicians and oligarchs laundering money. The people in power are not incented to make peace.

When did nato invade those countries and force them to join nato? How many children did they kidnap and force to live in a strange country with no family? How many people did they murder? How many cities did they vaporize?
Maybe those independent nations chose to join nato specifically to protect themselves from such barbaric probabilities.

How does it feel to be an enemy to your country?

@Carla are you saying Europe stopped trading with Russia? Last year they financed Russia’s war machine more than they sent aid to Ukraine.
@specman correct

You have uncritically accepted a Russia definition of "eastern Europe" as a bloc of countries that Russia somehow has a divine right to exploit and dominate. That is an anachronistic view that ignores the rich and varied histories of this region.
@SunshineGirl Ladies and gentlemen: The perfect example of globalist brainwashing. Continuous NATO expansion to the east, and then full denial that it's happening.

I wonder how you're going to feel if Starmer makes good on his promise and the "boots on the ground" he sends to Ukraine start returning home in body bags?
America didn’t want Russian missiles and bases in Cuba..
They Near had a war over it..

But Putin is just meant to roll over an accept American/nato bases and missiles in Ukraine..

@BizSuitStacy and @TheOneyouwerewarnedabout...it would seem from a broader analysis that Putin's side has been ordaining some very tit for tat strategic annexations in reaction to nato expanding east.

Had Patton lived to see this day he would be strongly cautioning Nato that it doesn't know enough about the geoterrain, its climates or its bioavailability in a protracted conflict.

Gets even deeper. There's good reason why Russia and China together are both their own and everyone else's most unstable partnership.

All actors are being lunatics with the exception of Trump. He's a classical thinker. He understands exactly what's going on right now.

Those war hawks would be smart if they pick up their tinkertoys and go sit in their own corners.

Before they find themselves with a devils haircut.
Hey poly bot, not fooled, won't answer if asked directly so, this has been determined to be a post by an automated political dissemination chat bot account
@BizSuitStacy yes information technology metaphorically is exactly that

NATO IS THE WORST ABOMINATION EVER CREATED. UM EQUAL TO THE UN.
BOTH ARE WORTHLESS AND DOING THE OPPOSITE OF THEIR FOUNDING PURPOSE.
THAT BLDG IN NY WOULD MAKE A GREAT APARTMENT COMPLEX FOR LEGAL IMMIGRANTS OR WORKING HOMELESS OR VETS TO TAKE UP RESIDENCE.
