Ukraine isn’t Russia’s business

NATO expansion is, and Zelensky brought NATO to Russia's front door. Why not take down your Homepage since it's pure BS?

NATO expansion is, and Zelensky brought NATO to Russia's front door.

This is false for the very obvious reason that NATO membership is impossible without the consent of France and Germany, who both opposed; and also because NATO membership is impossible while an active conflict was going on (Russia's first invasion in 2014).

There was no imminent threat of Ukraine joining NATO, despite the lie being repeated constantly by Russia and Putinists on this forum.

NATO bordered Russia right from 1999 when poland joined. In 2004 Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania joined.

They all requested to join as Russia invades its non NATO neighbours.
