>Russia is already 2x the size of the next largest country on Earth. Do we want it to be 3x, 4x or 5x before we start trying to prevent it from getting any bigger?

That’s some of the craziest argument I’ve ever seen, in 20 years on FR.

Do you actually believe that argument, or do you just think so little of others that you think they might buy it as persuasive? I’m really quite baffled as to what the angle is, here.
