Russia Ukraine war, page-191552

you seem to be practicing dumb wheb I know you aren't !

countries CHOOSING west isn't western expansion

russia invading west to conquer and annexe IS expanionism !

you attempt to pretend the former is sinister and the second quite natural .

there is nothing written down that says a middle level nation like russia MUST HAVE control of it's region - it's anonsense assumption that only the pro russ can make

countries have a perfect right to choose their own allies ......why do none of these countries (except perhaps Hungary) chooose russia - ask yourself that !!!
