So we just ignore the years of NATO surrounding Russia and carrying out "training exercises" on the borders?
There's this weird double standard thing where people in the West act like they can do what they want, and then flip when someone else outside of the "in" group does the same thing.
- jacques_chester 7y ago> So we just ignore the years of NATO surrounding Russia and carrying out "training exercises" on the borders? Yes. Russia's excuse for taking umbrage at exercises, that it was scarred by the memory of Nazis invading under pretext of an exercise, has grown pathetic from overuse. It happened nearly a century ago and -- try this on for size -- NATO isn't Nazi Germany.
- amaccuish 7y agoYes it's not like the US has never raised similar concerns about Cuba... the US is totally fine with having Cuba next door... "BUT BUT they had missiles pointed at the US." Yes well that was over 50 years ago and Cuba isn't Nazi Germany.
