    Was it western hegemonic interests that started an invasion of Ukraine? I seem to recall it was Russia.

        Nato is a defensive alliance, not an offensive one. The only way it could be perceived as a “threat” by Russia is id Russia had intention of expanding in that direction.

        And what happened to the self-determination of countries, if countries like, say, Sweden and Finland want to join NATO as additional defence against a militaristic expansionist Russia, that is absolutely their right.

        But since you are not debating in good faith, I’m not gonna spend more words and effort on this.

          NATO is objectively an offensive alliance that has invaded numerous countries. But since you are not debating in good faith, I’m not gonna spend more words and effort on this.

                Operations on terrorist organizations. Geography was not taken from any of those countries. I was against the Iraq war and I think many Americans were, I wouldn’t try to defend it.

                Now how is Putin invading Ukraine to expand Russia’s territory similar to those?

                You Russian shills love to call everyone idiots because no one understands global conflict like you do, but do you really?

                  These were violent invasions of sovereign countries. Period. Thanks for confirming that you’re just a troll without any intellectual integrity.
