We are shocked that Russia will do whatever it has to in order to prevent the strategic red line of having a NATO member on its border?
Would we allow Chinese or Russian bases next to our border?
Get a grip people. Nations have red lines to ensure their security. We shouldn’t be shocked in their response. It was all too predictable.
15% of Ukraine will be part of the Russian Federation next week. Deal with it.
duuh, you don't know that Poland has been part of NATO since 1997 and the Baltics since 2004?? They are Russian neighbours
and all requested to join because they were afraid of a Russian invasion. Russia invades non NATO countries.
“We are shocked that Russia will do whatever it has to in order to prevent the strategic red line of having a NATO member on its border?”
NATO members that are now sharing borders with Russia: Finland, Poland, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania. NATO threatens no one. NATO is a defensive alliance to defend against an aggressor nation
