It's already been pushed to its limit by the war in Syria. Russia joining NATO would probably result in the agreement disintegrating entirely.

- throwaway_4ever 5y agoHave you SEEN the non-NATO member that was just invaded?!
- gatlin 5y agoYes, the one bordering Russia, that was contemplating joining an organization which aims missiles at Russia. This doesn't excuse the invasion but your reasoning is self-defeating.
