You are right, as long as NATO exists, or rather, as long as Europe is occupied by the US army, any solution to the issue of Russian security will be temporary, compromise and half-hearted.

Ahh yes Russian security, another red herring. Hearing alot about that lately.

The only thing making Russian security wobbly at the moment is the voluntary actions of ...... guess who......... Russia.

The best thing to Russian could do to improve Russian security at the moment would be to pull their illegal troops off occupied land.
Security would shoot up overnight.

However, they aren't going to do that are they; because Russsian security is another red herring.

Maybe you're right again, but Putin doesn't seem to think so. And you will have to live in a world where any action or inaction of Putin is an objective reality that must be taken into account. Simply because Russia is the largest country in Eurasia and in the world. If you want freedom, make sure that your freedom does not infringe on the interests of Russia, or be prepared to defend your freedom with arms in hand.

Sometime I think the words Putin and Russia are used interchangeable and incorrectly mixed up. Putin isn't Russia and Russia isn't Putin.

Pulling troops out of Ukraine is in Russia's best interest, but not Putin's. He'll be killed. When he talks about Russian security, what he really means is his regime's security. As we've all seen, he cares very little about Russia and certainly even less about the Russian people.

I believe the majority of people of Russia are decent people and want nothing to do with this pointless war. Yet they don't have the freedom to express themselves and speak up.
