NATO proved in Yugoslavia that it's not "just a defensive alliance", and since their stated goal is to fuck over Russia, then you can see exactly why they responded the way they did when NATO keeps closing the circle tighter and tighter around Russia. This doesn't require guesswork, our own intelligence agencies have stated this as the likely outcome for decades.

> NATO proved in Yugoslavia that it's not "just a defensive alliance" Yes, it also stepped in to stop genocide where it could (and waited too long, if you ask me). Even by the highest estimates, the whole 78-day aerial warfare campaign killed less people than several atrocities commited during Yugoslav wars did in a single day, and the campaign brought a lasting peace to the region. > NATO keeps closing the circle tighter and tighter around Russia. Yes, that's why until Russia invaded Ukraine, NATO countries in Europe kept cutting military budgets, reducing troop numbers, disbanding units, closing military bases, selling off equipment. All a fiendish plot to encircle Russia!
