Russia is a known dictatorship and violator of human rights. It doesn’t share our values. NATO countries are supposed to be democracies that share our values, Turkey excepted. They are our allies.

Our NATO allies must take on more of the defense burden. Since 1945 the U.S. has provided the security umbrella for Europe paying a disproportionate share of the burden, which has allowed Europe to establish generous welfare states. As the world’s largest debtor nation, the U.S. can no longer afford to provide the bulk of the costs for Europe’s defense.

Why bring up Russia and Ukraine? They are not in NATO.

There's a reason the United States allied with Russia against Europe not in one, but two wars! And it could happen a third time.

“Why bring up Russia and Ukraine? They are not in NATO”

I didn’t bring up NATO, but since you did I would say Turkey is playing both sides and Hungary and orban are definitely on the Kremlin payroll

Be careful calling Russia a dictatorship the usuals will tell you all about the free and fair elections that have kept pitin in power for 25 years😂

The euros do not share our values. They have taken up with tyrants. I don’t know that a half of Americans share our values anymore.
