NATO starts biggest ever drill in Poland amid security fears

57. And yet...you are the one who laughed off inclusion of Russia into NATO.

Again, a blown missed opportunity. Russia's inclusion would have hamstrung it and locked all territorial disputes for good. Otherwise, they would win the distinction of being kicked out of NATO, a major blow in the world stage.

Enslave? Who has Russia "enslaved" recently? Their last war was in Georgia, when Georgia started shelling Russian separatist villages. Oh and the separatists happened shortly after the collapse of the Soviet Union...when it was no where near at the capability it is today.

Ukraine? Crimea belongs to the Tatars. Plain and simple. After that, its a stretch to say it even belonged to Ukraine in the first place.

And granted the vote to join Russia may have been rigged. But even without that, its likely they would have voted the same.

Eastern Ukraine is Russian, nothing you can do about that. But Ukraine isn't viable as a nation with out it. And we facilitated the overthrow of a corrupt President for....another corrupt President. Choice is really down to, allow them significant autonomy or let them join Russia and accept that Ukraine will be an agricultural nation without much significance (hell, I'd argue some of the land also belongs to Poland)

Oh an NATO never went to sleep. It expanded and our MIC continued to develop and sell arms to NATO nations. You are projecting a false narrative in order to massage your "world view". I'm pointing out the reality.
