If I lived in Europe I’d be more concerned about Russia than I am sitting in my hovel here in the western hemisphere. Russia will always have designs on its neighbors. It’s just how they are.
“Russia will always have designs on its neighbors.”
Particularly when their neighbors start to get cute.
Come to think of it, Trump would likely (or at least hopefully) respond as Russia if Mexico started getting cute in the same way as Ukraine.
I have designs on winning Powerball—but for now the Jackpot is safe from my aggressive desires.
Lol.
You’re so funny
Trump is looking at bombing Mexican cartels, against Mexican government wishes, because an armed narco state on our border has killed tens of thousands of our citizens and is a national security threat
When Russia does it - it’s merely because they are evil
My bride and I were legal residents in Germany for decades, before retirement and returning to this lovely sea island along the Southeast coast. No hovel.
During my time working all across Europe (and elsewhere) I personally came across no Europeans who expressed your concern. Not in Germany, after the Mauerfall. Not in the Netherlands, some of whom expressed their remembered "concerns" of the Germans, certainly not in Sweden whose "concerns" today have more to do with the government-sponsored Hijrah ongoing, and not n France and Belgium where I worked on many occasions.
I even worked with a Russian legal resident of Germany, there and in visits to Israel, wherein he joked more about the KGB and relished being a legal, long-term German resident.
So much depends on one's experiences. The officially non-NATO war between non-NATO Ukraine and non-NATO Russia sparks lots of heat on these threads, but when this is over -- all wars end -- then the historians will come to sort it all out. however it ends.
My bride and I trust President Trump and his adminstration in dealing with all this. Surprises and all.
