These are things that should have been considered more carefully *before* NATO’s relentless move eastward and establishing the former state of Ukraine as a launching pad for weapons aimed at Russia.

All the countries which entered into NATO clamored to enter, begged to enter. Why? Because of fear of Russia, that is why.

NATO did not "relentlessly move eastward". Russia pushed the former East Block countries into the arms of NATO.
