NATO was needed during the Cold War but not now. Unfortunately, the US is determined to start a war with Russia. Over UKRAINE!! Sorry, but Ukraine isn’t worth the life of one US soldier.
LoL, the Russians invading peaceful countries on the borders of NATO, to reassemble Reagan’s “Evil Empire” proves that we do need NATO.
Russia’s move into actual warfare and combat on NATO’s borders is making making all European countries strengthen their defenses, both NATO and non-NATO, some are like Sweden and Finland are now discussing the need to join NATO for survival.
Oh, and no one is trying to start a war with Russia, Russia is conducting a war that the Western nations are trying to stay out of by making it difficult for them.
