This is an excellent 32 minute history lesson on the conflict between the Baltic Countries, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia vs Russia. It's the best summary that I have found.
I don’t think anyone cares. It’s Europe.
As long as we are in NATO, it’s US too.
Twenty years ago, Putin stated that all of the European Countries that once were under the Soviet Union boot should be “returned” to Russia.
Sounds like Vlad has dreams of a USSR 2.0
Not a chance.
Maybe, but first he has to take the ukranians. they’re making the russians bleed for every acre of ground they gain.
“… how NATO is preparing for the upcoming war.”

I certainly have a measure of black fatigue but it pales to insignificance when compared to my NEOCON/WAR-MONGER FATIGUE.
We need a link for that claim
We already have many troops and weapons in Poland preparing for this.
Germany has troops in Lithuania, British in Estonia, and the Canadians in Latvia. All preparing defenses for war.
I care, as does most of this country and the world.
As an observer of reality unfolding, I refuse to bury my head in the sand.
How is someone a war monger if Russia attacks NATO?
We are trying to deter an attack.
Your fatigue is what Russia is counting on.
There is no upcoming war. 🙄
Putin has been in power for three decades. He has had three decades to conquer Europe- guess what? He hasn’t and won’t, they effectively destroyed themselves…..and now the EU is in their final phase of collapse, by their own hands.
I find it hilarious the EU tried everything to destroy Russia and they instead are the ones being destroyed….a very, very good lesson for the war cheerleaders.
Thanks, but the threat to America will be from across the Pacific.
The Euro Peons will throw up their hands and do nothing.
Not my zoo. Not my monkeys.

The Baltic states have no ancestral ties to Russia…they are more related to the Finns. And those “Russian-speaking minorities” in those countries-more like Russian colonists brought in when the Sovs took over.
The EU Baltic States should offer to buy it.
