And I read that article and it talks about how Crimea has been annexed by Russia.
So why wouldn't Ukraine want to be in NATO, when Russia had already gobbled up a sizeable chunk of their sovereign territory?
The idea from the apologists seems to be that European nations must just bow down to Putin 'because'.....and if Putin invades anyone it's not really his fault, it's all the fault of the West.
The apologists for Putin's actions would have fitted right in in 1936 - 1939. "Oooooh, don't upset Mr Hitler - if anything bad happens it's our fault not his".
