Uyghurs situation in Xinjiang? Just a police action, do not fret. Not ongoing genocide like in EVIL Canada.

I am definitely not a tankie.

someone should ask why we are still part of NATO after it specifically violated terms with the Russian Federation, multiple times, which is what has created this confrontation in the first place, on top of the soviets being gone for 40 loving years

Semper Shitpost Ubique

Agreement to the Treaty on the Final Settlement with Respect to Germany was predicated on the Soviets being safe to allow the reunification of Germany and withdraw the Group of Soviet Forces in Germany because - as others have pointed out - they were promised NATO would not move an inch eastward.

This was a pretty straightforward agreement, but as soon as the USSR fell the US started treating Russia like Melos. Humiliating Russia with respect to Serbia was pretty loving egregious, and if Yeltsin hadnt been an inept drunk, and Russia hadnt been as weak as it was, the Pristina Airport incident alone would have led to war.

NATO expanding to Georgia was the first provocation they really pushed back on, and Russia saving Syria from a US backed and armed rebellion in contrast to passively watching Yugoslavia get dismantled showed the game has changed. How many Colour Revolutions did we expect them to take? Were they supposed to be fine surrounded by a hostile military alliance on all sides?

I'd argue NATO's betrayal of Ukraine in 2014 is much greater than any betrayal of the Russian federation. Ukraine gave up their nukes in exchange for protection and NATO failed to hold up their end of the bargain over Crimea. Ukraine wanted and have been planning to join NATO for decades. Canada has been training Ukrainian officers in NATO related affairs on 'exchange programs' in Canada since the late 1990s.


e: I kind of agree that NATO should have gone away after the USSR dissolved fwiw

NATO member-states have the right to say "no, you don't get to join." Right now France and Germany are saying exactly that, and it's hard to blame 'em.

Ron Paul Atreides overstated the point because it wasn't the Berlin Wall coming down that was linked to the tacit agreement on NATO, it was the reunification of Germany the following year, which Gorbachev agreed to because Bush Sr. promised him that NATO wouldn't expand into Eastern Europe. Gorby didn't get it in writing though, and now here we are thirty years later.
