You shot yourself in the foot there clinging to Sach's carefully selected headline grabber didn't you...absent of some crucial information of course.
Stoltenberg....He wanted us to remove our military infrastructure in all Allies that have joined NATO since 1997, meaning half of NATO, all the Central and Eastern Europe, we should remove NATO from that part of our Alliance, introducing some kind of B, or second-class membership. We rejected that.
As if NATO was ever going to agree to Putin's draft treaty on those terms. The stuff of fantasy and all a smokescreen in my opinion. It's all backfired on him big time hasn't it....his invasion and War on Ukraine leading directly to the significant expansion and strengthening of NATO... Hint....it's all about Ukraine. Putin's on the record as saying the collapse of the Soviet Union was “the biggest geopolitical catastrophe of the century.” and has described it as the "demise of historical Russia." He's never been able to get over it apparently.
