Don’t sound like they want to join globohomo. Especially after 25 years of lies and insults capped off with full economic war and the lives we cost then. Neocons and idiotic reliving their Cold War pipe dreams have now changed Russia into an enemy. They will not offering us any more hands of friendship for several decades.
The idiots in DC have smashed the world economy and created huge hostility.
They aren’t looking to rejoin DC and the EU.
Also it was great fun hunting Trump. Russia saw what happens to a president who tries being friendly.
I tend to agree.....Putins moved on esepcially since Obama.....he began a major tour of all his neighboring countries and others making one deal after another, and since then..... So he was clearly prepared for what we see happening now and also was very clear about who the sanctions would ultimately hurt...and he was right.
It’s also been obvious the US has wanted to isolate Russia for years.....just look at any map of our military bases surrounding Russia. Yet people here still think Russia is over reacting.
Putin knows who is running the show here - so he also knew what his moves would be. So he went for Ukraine land he needed to secure his ports and eastern flank.
