NATO is the threat. The US cannot simply lie about NATO's good intentions, because in Eastern Europe they are not.
It's unfortunate that Russia has to use "the war" mechanism to prevent the expansion. But such mechanisms are widely used across the globe.
If you stop the US, you'll stop the war.
If you stop US pouring my money into Ukraine, right that minute Ukraine will enter into negotiations with Russia.
There is no need to throw more gas into the fire.
NATO is a voluntary defense alliance, and countries from Eastern Europe want to join NATO due to the (don't even say it's only perceived, as history shows over and over again) risk of being invaded by Russia.
The US are not forcing countries to join NATO.
What do you think is not good about NATO's intentions from Eastern Europe's perspective, besides Russia not being able to invade their neighbors anymore?
If you stop Russia, you'll stop the war. They started it, they can also just put their tanks in reverse and get out.
The outpouring of support, and weapons would disagree with this statement.
> Why do you think the US is pouring money into this war like crazy?
The US gets to decimate an opponents military, damage there arms export industry and damage their economy for just surplus military gear.
The US is destroying Russias military for pennies on the dollar.
> There was no threat from Russia before 2007
Georgia and Moldova would disagree but okay.
> There were no events to push other countries to join NATO.
The wars involving Russia invading former USSR states would disagree.
