feel free to counter what i said, that's why we are here right?
break it down for me.
Well for one, Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union and 1/2 the population are Russian speakers. Why do you think Crimea was annexed with ease.
For 2 there's the Cuban Missile Crisis. The U.S. put nukes in Turkey so Russia put nukes in Cuba. If Ukraine joined NATO, the U.S. could build bases and put nukes at the border of Russia. It would be like Iran & North Korea applying to join CARRICOM. It don't matter if they never step foot in the Caribbean, but they would still be able to put military bases and thousands of troops/weapons in Jamaica an other surrounding nations. The US would perceive it as a threat and would try to devastate those countries economically. The US already does this in Latin America by way of covertly destabilizing governments that don't fit their ideology.
Why do you think Cuba is still under an embargo?
At the end of the day Ukraine wouldn't entertain joining NATO if they didn't have back channel blessings. Russia has tried to destabilize them economically, and they simply skipped the slow roll and went all in. HAD the US and other countries not supplied them with weapons and intel, this war would be over. Ukraine may not join NATO, but Russia will be weakened, so it's a win win for the US and Europe. Which is why some countries don't align with the West.
Whaaaa?I'm starting to think this is the US and NATO's fault.
They basically provoked Russia by pushing for countries bordering Russia to join NATO even though it was unofficially agreed that would never happen. Instead of trying to end this peacefully, they've been supplying Ukraine with weapons. This is basically a proxy war between Russia and NATO allies with Ukraine being used as a pawn. The US obviously don't care about Ukraine as a country.

i've said it before and i'll say it again:
Ukraine retakes Crimea and pushes it's South Eastern border further East into Russian territory.
Russia as it exists today will no longer be.
gonna get clapped up and broken up into smaller nations.
quote me.
from this post, you probably dont know what you're talking about. He was going to try this regardless, that NATO shyt (i should say blaming it on nato and Nazism) is an attempt for him to save face in the international community.I'm starting to think this is the US and NATO's fault.
