Okay, how about simply we don’t want Russia to subsume another country, nor do our European allies, especially like Finland, Estonia etc who themselves worry about an emboldened RussiaWilly nilly going on an annexation spree trying to regain a lot of territory like it had when it was the USSR? Putin has grand ambitions and I’m glad the US and other European nations can see them and are standing up. |
You're a complete clown if you think Russia is any way more respectful of democracy than the US is. |
Estonia’s a vassal not an ally. |
It isn’t but it doesn’t pretend to, unlike America. It’s the hypocrisy that amuses. Democracy and human rights are commodities that are made only for the American domestic market. |
When the US gets to be as bad as Russia, maybe then your lame complaints about hypocrisy might carry some weight. Until then you're just making a fool of yourself. |
Even worse, Russia tries to paint itself as some kind of great liberator and anti-colonial force, and their stooges run around in Africa and Latin America making that ridiculous claim, even as Russia is actively colonizing and oppressing its neighbors, staging coups in Africa to create Russian puppet states and everything else. Talk about non-credible hypocrisy! |
Am I? I mean what was the US doing in Iraq? In Libya? In the Gulf? In LAC? Making the world safe for democracy? |
