USA-FRANCE:
When you invade and annex others peoples homes and lands, when you kill your neighbors without even having the guts to declare war beforehand... there is a price to pay.
palmer:
Yes. Ukraine paid the price for NATO’s bombing and dismemberment of Serbia (along with other NATO offensive threats since then). A cheesy “victory” over Russia will result in someone else paying the price in 20 years or so. Some Chinese Russian alliance could be calling the shots by then.
USA-FRANCE:
Ukraine has nothing to do with Serbia. Thus, Russia can’t use (and has not even uttered anything about that) historical events that happened in Serbia as an excuse for attacking Ukraine.
Secondly. Neither NATO or America have annexed anything in old Yugoslavian territories.
Over the course of just three years, communist Milosevic (a puppet to Russia) exacerbated ethno-nationalism to such a degree - that it all led to internal civil war!
Which in the end resulted into complete disintegration of Yugoslavia. To make things short in my explanation, at the end of the whole process... the successor states became these: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Slovenia, Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo. Whether we like it or not, all these became independent nations. If Milosevic had not started it all, Yugoslavia would still exist today. There would be no Kosovo, etc...
Blame Milosevic for the disintegration of Yugoslavia.
Ummm... Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, North Macedonia have all become Members of NATO. Bosnia and Herzegovina has applied and even Kosovo is trying to apply. So...
Someone must have missed the entire interview of Putin by Tucker Carlson.
Yes, Milosevic was a likely war criminal (but died before the verdict). But NATO took the side of actual convicted war criminals who committed crimes against Serbs in the process of tearing off a piece of Serbia. No, Kosovo was not like the others. It was always part of Serbia.
Even if you can't learn from history, rest assured that others will.
