West placing all those military bases near Russian borders ? You mean Russian neighbours trying their best to prepare against growing Russian threat (by what I mean direct official threats, massive military training operations near borders, increased forces near borders)? The West, when we talk about Western Europe, has constantly reduced their military by dismantling their tank armies, reducing their air force and not keeping their navy up to date with the mantra that Russia is not the enemy any more while Russia has done the opposite. I think you are just not being honest here. Edit: I do not claim that Russians are the only ones who have become too cocky, but definitely not Russian neighbours. PS. I wish that there is no need in the world to discuss these matters here or anywhere else.

> growing Russian threat I see the western propaganda is still hard at work here. This allegedly growing threat just keeps growing every year and escalated to what ? While the wars mentioned in the article of this post was made by the west. The Western EU armies have been reduced only by turning them into a joke - they're active nowadays as NATO forces for abowe mentioned oil wars, while outer EU states can't keep the EU border intact and are flooded by people of unknown origin - until they arrive at their destination.

  This allegedly growing threat just keeps growing every year and escalated to what I personally would hope that it would not escalate to anything but I think that your trying to ridicule it without any base. When there is growing threat from one side, then the opposing side (in the reasonable world) would try to counter the threat. In such way this game can continue indefinitely. I see the western propaganda is still hard at work here. I would like to hear your list of media sources (local and not local) that you consider to be non biased and in attempt to be honest. I am not sarcastic with this i.e. it is an actual request.

  Please, tell Ukraine and the rest of Eastern Europe about how the Russian thread is an invention of the western media. I'm sure the Russian military support in the Donbass is also just an invention by CNN, right?

I think you are just not being honest here. They have both been doing the exact same provocative things.
