Has it ever occurred to you (or any other putinists here) that some - well, most, with rare exceptions being totalitarian shitholes like Belarus - countries/nations/people do not want to join the new Russian/Soviet empire. And would fight against it regardless of what the US or NATO does or doesn't do.

Rhetorical question, don't bother.

Edit: spelling.

You are further proving my implied points. Anyone who even questions the United States and the West is "disloyal" and "pro-Putin" apparently. I never once mentioned Ukraine's sole intentions in terms of their relationship with Russia, I was questioning the US themselves and what they seek to gain from this conflict, and their other policies.

My dad's side of the family are Moldovan, I've seen and heard first hand what the fear of a Russian invasion/incursion looks like. I spent my younger school years in Belgium, but whenever I visited Moldova or Romania, you were always told that if you heard the phrase: "Au sosit rușii, aveți grijă", which in essence means "The Russians are coming for us, protect yourself", then you should seek shelter immediately, because Moldova has always been a conflicted state in terms of whether they should join the EU, or remain under Russian influence, as they were until 2009.

If you want to take my posts out of context that's fine, but do not insult and attack people because their views are different to yours. I am not Pro-Putin, but I am not in favour of the way the West has/have handled this situation. I have seen its ramifications first hand, Moldova is a pillaged state.
