Russia should not feel threatened by NATO supporting Ukraine. NATO is, after all, a defensive alliance. Just ask Libya and Afghanistan and Syria and Yugoslavia.

Macron and others poking the bear inevitably leads to escalating rhetoric.
The difference is this leader has shown he says what he means and means what he says, particularly in the D0nbas matter.

Be scared. Do not listen and learn for yourself. Only listen to the news. Ignore the fact that this is routine since the 1950's and America does the same thing.

I don’t blame them, with all the aggression from NATO and Ukraine I’m surprised Russia has been so composed.

Here we go baby. The Russians are only going to give one more warning after this, and that would most likely come in the form of an atmospheric nuclear test. And then if we still don't come to our senses.... here comes the sun.

Who cares the Americans do the same thing

[matthewcummings]

This is a sign they are worried about losing

Trust me he's not going to do anything that's all he ever does is make threats

[leop]

I see these warheads failing and detonating in their own territory
