Why would people join NATO if not for article 5? I guess everyone not-US could still do stuff.

I mean, isn't this kind of why joining NATO was a good idea for him? Russia is invading and we're gonna do jack poo poo because global capital told us not to.

right, and he knew that would happen if he got shot down. so he gambled his whole regime and country on getting the green light to join NATO

I'm really glad if this is true, Ukraine going full 'EVERYONE WHO CAN HOLD A GUN MUST DIE IN THE STREET FOR OUR HOMELAND' was the nightmare situation and I really am worried they're flirting with it internally.

https://www.statista.com/statistics/1010660/russia-average-monthly-nominal-wage/
In 2020, the average nominal salary in Russia was measured at approximately 51.1 thousand Russian rubles per month

51,100 Russian Ruble equals
602.98 United States Dollar

The majority of Russians, as per 45 percent of the polled respondents, were paying between 5 and 15 thousand Russian rubles per month for rented housing as of July 2019.

lol what if this pushes them closer to Russia? Like, obviously not Zelensky but if seeing NATO hang them out and watching Azov get rinsed/run away as soon as fighting started makes things friendlier for the 'maybe we can just, you know, be on Russia's side???' side of things that'd be hilarious

Graves Registration isn’t pretty, and I’ll tell you a secret - the cremation isn’t for whole, identifiable corpses but for all of the stuff that can spread really awful diseases if not dealt with in a sanitary way.

Western media has sanitized the gently caress out of war eh? Are there any American movies or videogames that depict Graves Registration? Other than dog tags I mean?

because the people who actually run the country benefit greatly from America helping them loot it, and that's all they care about. the ukranian people could be exterminated to a man as long as some mafioso in berlin and london get paid.

yea that's why Putin isn't adding 'Zelensky steps down' to demands and all, Zelensky just saw his whole profit stream betray him and if he (hopefully) goes for the terms offered he'll see his support dry up too. Zelensky got his nut and he's no longer valuable to anyone, if he has any genuine love for his country he'll push for accepting the ceasefire and end this before more Ukrainians die.
