Correct and you don't need to go and perch yourselves on someones door step either. The Americans have rolled back on the promises to stop NATO encroaching further East. The Russkis are now fed up and don't want military bases on their borders. To be fair the Americans got a bit tetchy when they had that in Cuba didn't they? Two sides to every story despite what the western ****stain press say. If the Russkis or China made a deal with Southern Ireland or Canada, and then planned a military base on ours or the americans borders, do you think we'd not threaten to pull the plug on trade with Ireland or Canada? Of course we would. So why not just get rid of NATO which serves no purpose, leave the Russians alone, and only actually do something if they actually set foot in another country. We don't need to be stationed there, its not 1981. Its amazing that since Biden came in we've all of a sudden got another war on our hands. Yet the much maligned Trump kept the peace with Russia without issue. By engaging with them and not using Cold War rhetoric. The Americans are **** heads on a power trip. The Ukraine have confirmed as much.
Would love to see what Vlad's posturing would do if we and the U.S went and parked up a massive Naval armada just off the coast of Finland. I suspect he'd **** a ****ing brick.
