It’s not a blockade. Just ship your contraband via the Baltic.

Where was East Prussia?
What did the Poles deny the Germans prior to the invasion?

And where is Russia’s responsibilities in all of this? If Russia would only go home and respect Ukraine’s sovereignty, as they once promised, all of the sanctions would go away.

So Russia invaded Ukraine to stave off globohomo? That’s supposed to be a serious argument?

Russia is free to define what is a blockade and what is not.

Not under international law it isn't. Countries have never been under any obligation to permit their own territory to be used for transit by another nation. That's beyond absurd.

The Poles are protecting themselves from “western perverts” just fine, and they hate Russia. Their most anti-pervert factions hate Russia the most.

The whole “western pervert” thing is from Russian propaganda. Its a talking point, not a cause. The Soviet Union selectively used the same thing in its day. The Russian government doesnt give a $%&% who is a pervert.

And, moreover, you know this. You are arguing this point against your own conscience.

In the past NV has made clear he’s a Russian. I may not agree with him on most things but I do respect his honesty on this.

If Russia weren’t a shithole they would be fighting a war of conquest.

Their “Interests” requires their neighbors to be fellow shitholes...

NATO is not what it once was. It’s a globalist NWO outfit now.

UN Agenda 2030
WEF 2030 Vision
WEF Young Global Leaders
NATO 2030
NATO Young Leaders

Seeing a pattern here?

It is 100% relevant.

Why, because you say so? Not much of an argument.

The US has a vital interest in seeing that Europe's wealth and tech are not pushed under Russia's (or China's) sway. That geopolitical problem is there regardless of whoever happens to hold the White House or our own culture wars.

I question your humanity, yes, to some degree.
In this case, in this context, I certainly question your status as an interlocutor. I suspect you are not sincere, let us put it that way

I’ve been here for 12 years. How you have been here for 19 years and still have no clue how to figure that out is beyond me.
I’m a USAF Veteran. I live in PA.
I went to University of Florida for Electrical Engineering.
If you just click on someone’s homepage you can know plenty.
I don’t want the US to be involved in this European clusterF at all.
I would think the last 21 years of perpetual warfare would be enough.
