I like how you admit that there was no such treaty, just vague promises to a country (USSR) which doesn't exist anymore. Usually, you russian bots say that NATO was bound to not accept new members.
- pydry 5y agoI like how quoting Deutsche Welle citing public documents about specific promises makes me a Russian bot.
- eveningcoffee 5y agoBecause nothing was promised. It was only told that right after collapse of SU the previously occupied countries are not yet ready to join NATO.
- pydry 5y agoAre you saying what was in the released documents was made up?
- eveningcoffee 5y ago"In the current environment, it is not in the best interest of NATO or the US that [Eastern European] states be granted full NATO membership and its security guarantees," according to a State Department memorandum in 1990, while those states were still emerging from Soviet control as the Warsaw Pact disintegrated. Do you see any promise here? I don't. Nothing to see here move along.
- pydry 5y ago>"Indeed, documents show a pattern of promises US negotiators made to their Russian counterparts" Was Deutsche Welle lying when they wrote this? It's a simple question. Theres something to see here youre pretending doesnt exist.
