“NATO started this war with its relentless march east towards Russia “
Which NATO armies participated in this march of yours? I missed the news about NATO aggressively invading Poland, East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Sweden, Finland, Bulgaria, etc.
But I do recall that those countries freely applied for and were accepted as members of NATO.
I understand that this is a threat to Russia’s delusional fantasies of restoring their Soviet empire but this is not a ‘march east’.
What Hitler and Napoleon did was to ‘march east’.
This is not at all the same thing.
