Zach I agree with you we need to check Russia but Serbia should own most of former Yugoslavia. Why? Like we have interests in both Europe and Asia why give Russia a pass but not China?

Ok I didn’t think of that since they are an ally so we have options. But will the sanctions be effective? If Germany needs Russian gas more than trade with us they won’t choose us. But Ukraine is not globohomo and they are standing up for itself and it’s citizens.

Guys we have to look at the worst case scenario possible. What if Russia invades all of Ukraine, and when we try to impose sanctions Germany tells us to fuck off because Russia has them by the balls. What would happen next.

But you yourself said Russia wants NATO to go back to its 97 era borders that means nothing east of Germany so you want us to abandon Poland as well that’s a non starter. It’s not happening. The days of the Russian empire and Soviets are not over and done.

Maybe very good trade deals?

If Russia attacks the Baltics tomorrow we should defend the Baltics they are part of NATO. But the baltics are in a bad place and we probably should not have invited them in the first place, and if we can convince them to leave NATO that would be great.

Exactly it would be a risky move, with no or very little benefit, helping a group that isn't his best friend. It's stupid just like Westerners whining about the rights of Muslim Uighurs. The Muslims aren't our friends, but neither is the other side.

That just makes him smart. Why the fuck should he care? To him this is a conflict between Islamists and French, Putin believes in real politic, only the dumber western nations want to stick their noses and opinions everywhere. Also Charlie Hebdo believe in freedom of expression which Putin does...

That does not mean that they will be anti Russia, they could be pro Russia, and anti America.

There is a difference democracies have to look at the people they are bringing in. Canada is more liberal than us Americans so if they come in democrats would get a shot in the arm. The territory would be useful with its resources and space, the people less willing unless we make them 2nd class...

What is enough? Do you honestly think that if Poland voted to join Russia (ha) Russia would say “no thanks we are full.” No they’d pounce on the opportunity because they are smart a larger population and more land is useful.

Ok so why does it matter how big Russia is? They were big before they conquered Poland yet they still did it. Russia is an imperial power hungry for land and resources.

Sounding suspiciously like a Russian that wants more land in eastern europe. Also what is a komshu? I googled it it said Turkish for neighbor? Urghh Turks are the worst, I'd rather be a Russian. Seriously though you seem to be misinformed. First off the Czech's are not a "fake nation" Bohemia...

Well first we need to go over what Romanians are, the most common acknowledged thing is they are a mix of the ancient Dacians, and Ancient Roman colonists after Trajan conqured the area along with Slavic influence. There is good evidence that the Romanians are descended from Ancient Rome, not...

Except there was never a Russia in the time period you are talking about 7th century? Also there was a historic nation called Romania, yes the nation was not unified politically but Wallachians, and Moldavians were Romanian they had the same culture, ate the same foods, had similar festivals...

I'm actually surprised. I thought most Jews left eastern europe for Israel or other western nations once communism fell. It would offer a better life, and there would be less prejudice against them. Also they'd have an easier time leaving than other people (assuming they go to Israel) since...
