So you have no problem with Mexico signing a defense pack with China…with China military on our border. Or how about Russian military/missiles etc in Cuba?

Nope, and it won’t.
You think NATO should court a country that shares a border with Russia and a big part of the Black Sea?
Maybe Russia should have been a better partner if it didn’t want it’s former state running to the EU/NATO.
Geopolitically, it’s not a bad idea, if you want to keep Russia in check.
Russia won’t be kept in check by encirclement.
Would we let Mexico join in a military union with China and then China park ballistic missiles in Mexico pointed at us? I am assuming we wouldn’t.

Why do you assume Russia the one that needs to be checked.

Still not hard frozen, but soon. Temps are low to mid 30s in the day and mid 20s at night. Day light is about as long as Ohio or Michigan this time of year. Early February is the coldest time of the year. I’d watch the end of the first week of February, that gives Russian Forces time to finish redeployment and final massing of logistics. But if they get a 5-6 day cold snap it could be earlier.

How about 3 and half years ago.
How about when this new forum just open?
And I have discussed dangers of EU expansionism…when America has interest in Russia because of massive resources that Russia has. And help keep China in check…but none of you neo-cons and lib interventionist want to listen.
So maybe…just maybe it is Tucker Carlson been reading my posts over the years.

And the EU is fractured and not a monolith we saw it almost fall over Greece, then there was Brexit after the migrant crisis. Countries like Poland, Czech Republic, and Hungary might as well be on a different planet in terms of shared policies, then it gets worse when you speak of Lithuania and Estonia.
Imho the EU would have faired better being based on Western European countries. The countries in Eastern Europe share little of anything with Western Europe other than proximity. I wish them the best but I don’t see how the thing holds out in the long run.
The more they expand the weaker they get. When a person talks to the average person in Poland or Hungary then think they are in Union with Brussels it’s kind of hilarious.

Here is a pretty good analysis of the real politic in Belarus and points out the political situation for Belarus’s dictator. It also reinforces the information on the scheduled Russian-Belarus “Exercise” scheduled to start on 2/10/2022,
Georgia 2008 and it’s continued occupation and shifting borders.
Ukraine 2014 and it’s continued occupation, and current actions.
The assassination of Litinvenko on British soil
It’s “diplomacy” with Moldova
2014 occupation had something to do with Maidan which was sponsored by the EU and the US
Georgia is an interesting one.
No. But keeping Russia from taking their former bread basket back isn’t bad either.
They already have the bread basket part. The separatist regions are industry and farmland

There is still a large amount of farmland outside of the separatist regions. But I doubt Putin wants Ukraine for it’s farms.
Did biden win yet??
