Imagine having the whole of the greatest offensive military behemoth in history cuddling up closer to the U.S. than even Cuba. THAT is what NATO in Ukraine is to Russia. This is just the start. Expect Mexican BRICS membership sooner rather than later. I’d suggest you go pantieless when the Russians begin to upgrade Cuban military runways to nuclear age standards. You can keep your underwear waddage to a minimum that way.
Kazan stronk as bull!

Correct. And it doesn’t really matter what NATO’s intentions are. What matters is what Russia *thinks* NATO’s intentions are.
However, I view Putin’s response (the invasion) as an overreaction. In other words, a pox on both their houses.

Offensive? NATO is laying waste to the world and conquering peoples and nations?
You think the nations of Europe lie in fear at night of the NATO countries, or do you think they fear Russia?
Russia has launched the biggest European war since WWII and they intend to keep whatever they have conquered, whatever they are conquering, and whatever they will conquer in the future, NATO is demonstrating its defensive nature by only helping the victim nation while staying out of direct conflict with the world threat that is Russia.
Ah yes. Remember the Cuban missle crisis?
It ended when the Soviet Union agreed to remove their missiles from Cuba, We declared victory.
AND
It ended when we agreed to remove our missiles from Turkey, the Soviet Union declared victory.
Win-win...
