It took them 4 years to recognize the threat from russia. But, better late than never, I guess.

What "threat from Russia?"

Attacking threat. If your neighboring country easily attacks another country, then there are no guarantees that it will not attack you. Especially, if this aggressive country also dislikes you.

Assuming, that you are from ml instance, it is pointless for me to prove or tell you something. So, you may as well ignore me to save both of our time.

Russia has no intentions of invading Western Europe, it's responding to being encircled, poked, and prodded at by the imperialist countries for decades. I wonder why Russia dislikes western Europe? /s

It's abundantly clear that this is an excuse for Europe to heavily militarize as it pivots towards austerity, a course already taken by the US Empire decades ago. It's a sign of severe imperialist decay and a rise in fascism.

No idea what you mean by saying it's pointless to "prove or tell me something" just for being on Lemmy.ml, this community itself is on a leftist RSS instance that opposes NATO.

Yeah, yeah. Whatever you say, putinist. As I mentioned before with a small logical typo, it is pointless to continue this dialog simply because you do support russia and I don't.

...Putinist? I'm a Marxist-Leninist, Putin is a liberal (genuinely). I critically support Russia as far as it works against imperialism and is a strong ally of socialist countries and the global south, I detest their fall from their proud Soviet roots and want a return to socialism.

As you wish, ML. It still doesn't make any difference for me, so I won't bother you anymore by having a dialog with you. Have a good day.

"Defensive" like the IDF.
