“bluntly said that one of the main mistakes was drawing Ukraine into NATO,”
___________
Who’d-a-thunk-it?
Oh no! Run for your life! Peace is breaking out! The poor MIC oligarchs! Oh, the humanity!
Ukraine out of NATO and Russia out of Ukraine. It sounds like a deal.
Pushing for Ukraine NATO membership was a policy strategy of the anti-Russian Brzezinski-led war party during the Clinton and Obama administrations, whose overt intention was to goad Putin into taking action which we could then use as a pretext to go to war against Russia. To further that agenda we overthrew a Russia-neutral/NATO-neutral government in Ukraine in 2014 and installed the current bunch willing to carry US anti-Russian water for us. One doesn’t have to be pro-Russian to recognize this, just reasonably objective. Trump gets it and has no desire to pursue the anti-Russian agenda further at the cost of continuing waste of men and wealth.
Invite Russia to join NATO.
An attack on one is an attack on all!
Russia’s safety guaranteed thru force of arms by 32 NATO signatories.
Should Poland screw with Russia....31 countries flail upon the Poles....
Russia asked to join when NATO was formed.....we said, nyet.
For a lasting peace Russia must be granted unrestricted access to the sea lanes.
