You can stay in your cocoon or have some curiosity.
Russian leaders and several Western policy experts were warning more than two decades ago that NATO expansion would turn out badly—ending in a new cold war with Russia at best, and a hot one at worst. Obviously, they were not "echoing" Putin or anyone else. George Kennan, the intellectual architect of America's containment policy during the Cold War, perceptively warned in a May 2, 1998 New York Times interview what NATO's move eastward would set in motion. "I think it is the beginning of a new cold war," he stated. "I think the Russians will gradually react quite adversely and it will affect their policies. I think it is a tragic mistake."
You probably won't read this far.. George Kennan, the intellectual architect of America's containment policy during the Cold War, perceptively warned in a May 2, 1998 New York Times interview what NATO's move eastward would set in motion.
From1998,, Your position that Nobody has anything to fear from what you call a peacekeeping organization. You understand the combined forces of Every Country IN that organization can be brought to bear on whomever? You DO remember we LIED to get into the Vietnam war, right? Surely you're smart enough to understand that the people who run the Defense agencies HAVE TO HAVE WARS,,
It's Not being pro Russia or Putin to be honest.
