Without the USA there would be no Europe.

Quite possibly true. Russia's Red Army might well have rolled right to the Atlantic, as Stalin intended.

Just after the WW2 Tehran Conference, Stalin said to a journalist, (roughly translated):"It's high time the Slavic race was in charge of Europe." He meant it literally. American power stopped him. The turning point might have been Berlin Airlift.

Putin is resurrecting all the worst of the Soviet era evil-doers, including even Felix Dzerzhinsky. Moscow's intention of subsuming all of Europe to Russian hegemony survives to this day.

So, you claim. Bur Russia helped save Europe from another European country that wanted to do the same. Bad people exist in every country, and we have a bunch of bad people controlling this country right now.

Tell me why Putin didn't go further after his intrusion into Georgia at the behest of the Georgian president, Mikheil Saakashvili, at that time in 2008 to quell what was claimed to be an attempt of insurrection?

You keep insisting that Putin has all of these nefarious designs on Europe without producing scintilla of evidence to support that claim. But the reality is that Putin has his hands full in Ukraine. Ukraine is running out of manpower which will ultimately be the real cause of Ukraine's downfall.
