And the expectation is that we can pile up our weapons, but they can’t. There was no other reason to expand NATO than to allow us to pile up our weapons.
Our weapons were mostly in Germany, FAR FROM THE RUSSIAN BORDER.
RUSSIAN WEAPONS WERE ON UKRAINES BORDER and they used them to invade Ukraine.
See the difference?
There was no other reason to expand NATO
ONCE AGAIN. Finland is a perfect example. 20% of Finland was seized by the Russians in WW2 with Finland forced to sign a neutrality agreement.
As the leader of Finland would you continue to rely on those agreements after Putin shredded all his agreements with Ukraine to honor its borders or would you quickly join NATO?
Thats the reason NATO has expanded, Russia with Putin is a threat to its neighbors, to their very existence.
