Here's a wild thought, maybe the best security comes from being a good neighbor and cooperating with people around you.
Russians can't trust. They grow up in a culture where corruption is common and lies more prevalent than reality. The only way a Russian can ever trust a thing is to do it themselves. The only other option is to remove anyone else who can do it better and then claim the advance as a Russian victory.
Russia can't be trusted by anyone anymore. Russians will be out for themselves, as they always are.
Ireland here. Can confirm.
I mean of course they won't stop at Kyiv. They can't reach it.
still incredible to me that kyiv still stands in ukrainian hands, i was absolutely sure it was going to fall in three days. amazing.
Oh that's one hell of a one-liner, I like it!
lol. Blyats can’t take Ukraine and NATO hasn’t done more than supply weapons and intelligence.
Any fellow old folks remember the Iraqi Information Minister and related memes? Sounds like he's been giving this Russian guy lessons....

If the west needs any more encouragement to assist Ukraine, here it is.
The choice is help Ukraine now, or kick the can down the road and lament when Russia is at your borders.

That might seem scarier if they weren't nearly 2 years into their 3 day war against their smaller, poorer next-door neighbour.
Russia is a terrorist shithole state that needs to be dismantled. I wish my country was doing more than providing arms and training.
Because Russia is being invaded so often.
It's Nazi Germany all over again. Once you declared "total war" there is no way to escalate further and also no way to back down again.
Then just die of fright you absolutely cowards, if you think that defending hospitals, schools and civilian apartment buildings is a threat to Russia then just die. If you think a free and honest press is a threat to your government then just die because no sane person will look at your actions and let you continue unabated
Wish a bitch would try...we could finally end this war.
Do Russians people truly believe they would stand a chance against the whole fucking NATO?
Propaganda is one thing, but that’s pure delusion.
*Suicidal ideation
It's why I imagine the Russian government has been trying to frame this as "self-defense" to its own people, when it's clearly the opposite.
They know that people will go to extreme lengths to fight when they believe they're fighting defensively, for their own people, sovereignty, safety, etc. To that end, it won't matter if they can realistically defeat NATO- they just want their own people to die trying.
Is this a declaration of war? Against NATO??
Pretty much sounds like a declaration of war against Poland and France, and thus NATO to me.
You have to have leverage to negotiate. Is losing 500k standing troops a leverage position?
Copium.
Only Russian aggression has made Russia insecure. Because now their borders are disputed.
Russia could have been perfectly secure, by just being a decent neighbor, and not invade other countries.
Maybe just concentrate on not losing the current war lol
Reminds me of this :
A new movie to watch, thank you!
We must fight wokeness on the beaches, the waterfronts and elsewhere. We shall never surrender.
There was some interesting, supposedly intelligence chatter during the Crimea invasion, that russia was willing to go as far as nuke warsaw to hold their claims. There was discussion that in the cold war in the 1950’s, russia was a victor, and responding from a position of strength - but the men ruling today come from a collapsed country and feel the need to do whatever it takes to feel respected.
