yeah, NATO countries just end up going to places and accidentally have resources fall into their capitalists' pockets pekka. It isn't a russian perversion when Borell says that everything outside of the first world is a savage jungle.

That has nothing do with how or why Russia invaded Ukraine, or why the only rational response to it is opposition.

lmao russia's justification for invasion to protect the people of the DPR and LPR is literally the same as NATO's to invade Yugoslavia to protect the people of Kosovo.

No, given that ukraine was ethnically cleansing russians, it had everything to do with NATO backed imperialism. I will take Merkel and Hollande's take over yours.

Why? Merkel was a Russian ally that hooked Germany on gas and shut down the nuclear plants, leading to the current energy crisis.

The secret is to have a bunch of copypasta on standby. You don't want to actually put effort into troll baiting otherwise you're just wasting your own time for what you hope to perceive as a payoff.

Nato is a defense union, with no imperialist intentions. The US might have them, but they can carry them out without NATO. It is a Russian perversion to divide the world into Russia and NATO. Finland tried to be neutral and friendly with Russia for a long time, in the end it was all for naught.

Nato destroyed Afghanistan.

Merkel was a buddy to Putin and made Germany dependent on cheap gas, that was a choice. Industry can function on electricity from nuclear plants instead of gas, but instead the plants were shut down and nord stream 2 was planned. This giant mistake by Germany was a major reason why Russia felt emboldened to start the war, because they believed and were partly right, that the EU and especially Germany could not seriously resist.

Their goal was to conquer Kyiv quickly instead they are doing conscription and pulling back. How is that not a loss?
