so this article is in russian/ukranian (or another language in cyrillic) and i wonder, did all people liking or commenting here really read this? as a european i tend to be very skeptical of the US involvement in eastern europe. they seem to be exploiting the enmity of some eastern european nations toward russia for own economic gain and to stop russia selling its natural resources to EU. all the while being many many miles away from the danger zone. one has to wonder, how would people of US percieve the situation if Mexico decided to host Russian bases and missiles

There is this thing called Google translate, it works surprisingly well for getting the gist of articles in languages that you can not read. I use it professionally (with some caveats) and it is quite impressive. It certainly isn't perfect and I wouldn't use it to write stuff but for reading it is ok.

The US thew a tantrum about Cuba, and still penalises them to this day, so you can easily see how hypocritical they are ( US missiles in Turkey are OK, but Soviet in Cuba weren't).

If the US invaded another country just because it has Russian military bases, that would be wrong too. Ukraine doesn't have American bases and, even if it did, that's no reason for its neighbour to attack it. Countries have the right to determine their future without threats of occupation. PS: The article is in Russian. As an European, I've read it.
