- fuoqi 5y agoIt's a bit as if the US attacked Canada after: - Pro-China forces got into power in Canada after unconstitutional coup. - China has started to actively train and supply Canadian military. Of course, solely for protecting Canadian sovereignty. /s - Anti-imperialistic (read anti-US) propaganda run rampant in the country. - Pro-US parties and media got either closed or pressured to the point of non-relevance. - The Canadian govement has declared that it wants close economic ties with China and to join its military bloc. - English was pressured in favor of French to protect Canadian culture. If you think it's too unrealistic, just remember the Cuban missile crisis.
- orthoxerox 5y agoThat attack would still be unwarranted.
- paulryanrogers 5y agoThis analogy is confusing. In Ukraine I get the impression there was only one foreign aggressor: Russia. And the 2014 revolution overthrowing the old ruler was to push back against their influence. And because of the aggressor's response (annexation, mercenaries, un-uniformed troops) Ukraine themselves sought security guarantees from other partners.
