  Isnt that a fairly rational defensive response to Russians invading and annexing parts of Ukraine? If Russia wants to strengthen defenses against Nato in response, fine, as long as they don't go invading pad those borders as well.

    This all happened AFTER NATO put misssile defences in Turkey, bordering Russia's sphere of influence which they agreed not to do. If NATO isn't going to maintain the agreement why should Russia?

    That was but one example, there are plenty from before Ukrainian conflict started, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_missile_defense_complex_in_Poland https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_missile_defense_... Imagine US reaction if Putin tried to set up a "missile defense system" in Cuba. Oh wait.
