So?
The Russians behave and they will never have to use them.
NATO surrounds Kalingrad
This would never have happened if Trump was President.
Be sure to thank your Democrat friends.
Biden’s not afraid 😱 of anything.
Well it’s obvious regardless what Russia says Nato/Us will continue to do what they choose to. That’s quite clear.
Putin is pushing war.
Yep. Putin would never mention the "n" word.
Fine; ensure your demise. Hope your people are OK with that.
putin is going from paranoid to schizoid real fast.
Then they can return Köenigsburg to Germany - see how that goes over. /s
Sweden and Finland saw no need for NATO all through the Soviet era. Now they want in? Sorry, no.
As an aside, Sweden supplied Germany with materials and rail access during WW2, while Finland fought alongside Germany. In both instances it was a self-preservation, enemy-of-my-enemy situation, but nonetheless, I see parallels here. They see NATO as a convenient club to join, while nations who have paid their dues for decades have to put up for them? No thanks.
Kaliningrad was ethnically German, but Russia ethnically cleansed the region, replacing ethnic Germans with Russians, giving Russia an isolated fortress island in the heart of Europe. Kaliningrad is the equivalent of Georgia joining NATO. Why should Europe have to tip toe around Kaliningrad, and ignore Russian nuclear weapons in the Baltics? Russia should have zero say in nuclear weapons in the Baltics, Poland, Finland or Sweden unless they are willing to give up nukes in Kaliningrad. Yet NATO walks on eggshells to appease Russia, and places no nuclear weapons on soil that borders Russia.
total bs
didn’t Ukraine sign the Warsaw pact?
So Russia thinks it can drop nuclear warheads on neighboring Finland and the radioactive fallout will just stay in Finnish territory?
Koenigsberg, Ducal Poland, to go back before the partitions of Poland.
Anyone who thinks they aren’t there already, is an idiot.
If the Red Army had stayed in Russia, NATO and its evil twin the Atlantic Council would have faded into oblivion.
There is no limit to Russian incompetence these days.
