If many countries near Russia prefer to align themselves with NATO and the west, how will violent behavior from Russia improve the situation? It seems like it will do the opposite.

As Russia fucks more and more of its neighbors, the remainder increasingly scramble to join the "fuck you right back" alliance. This isn't complicated.

Ah yes the wonderful US peace strategy...let us go back to a Cold War, and before that, a friendly remainder to buy some raytheon, lockheed and boing stocks.

You seem to think the US forced Russia to invade a sovereign neighbor. That didn't happen.

Stop with your wannabe attempt to put words in my mouth i never said.

It is a wonderful strategy. Without firing a shot, Russia will collapse. It won’t take years for the lack of supplies and parts from all those German manufacturers like Siemens, and the dozens of others that the whole world depends on.

It won’t take long for them to become N Mongolia.

China is a neighbor of Russia. One has oil and gas the other not so...but a massive economy.

Do you really want to them to join forces because there is no other way?

Agreed. MSM is preaching an agenda that is willfully blind to history. Ukraine is tragic, but don't for a second subscribe to the "unprovoked" narrative.

I’m sorry how was it provoked? By Ukraine wanting to join nato? They should be allowed to align with whomever they want
