Airbus chairman sees ‘strong indications’ an emboldened Putin is mobilizing forces to attack NATO’s eastern flank
-
Starting war directly with NATO would start WW3. It would trigger a cascade of responses that lead to nuclear armageddon.
I doubt Russia wants that.
Okay sure, nuclear war. With what weapons? France’s nuclear arsenal is tiny and the US will not defend Europe.
-
Germany has american nukes stationed in germany. France has also declared that their nukes will cover nato, as well as british nukes.
Exactly, as I said. Germany has no nuclear weapons.
-
Russia's war economy is partially a response to sanctions, not just some cynical power grab by Putin. If the sanctions end they'll be able to wind down and focus on peaceful development.
Russians do not have an endless appetite for war. They aren't orcs.
Russia has been terrorizing their neighboring countries ever since the millennium. Actually, when you go further back in history, you could say that being incredibly cruel to their neighbors (and their own population) is one of the core traits of Russians.

They have almost three hundred warheads! Are you under the impression that you need a large arsenal to act as a deterrent?
Russians aren't orcs. They aren't going to risk all of their cities being nuked.

The Russian skull shape makes them subhuman orcs that crave war and blood.

France's arsenal is enough to wipe out most of Russia's population, since most of Russia is villages and nature, with most of it concentrated in the western side

Next time just don’t reply at all if you have nothing of value to add.

Do you find it of value to spout plain bigotry? Given the history of US military action should I say it is one of the core traits of Americans to be blood-thirsty ghouls?
-
US and Europe lead by Germany. As per Sadam, you're referring to that war where Iraqi soldiers were throwing Kuwaiti newborns out of incubators? What about the recent one where fictional WMDs were the trigger to obliterate them including civilians?
Are you suggesting the Sadam did not invade Kuwait?

I’m spouting historical facts. You’re spouting whataboutism. Why is it that you people can’t stomach criticism of your holy Russian empire without deflecting to the USA?
But yes, I would in fact lay a similar criticism on the US and its forever wars. However, up to the current Trump administration, the way they treat their neighbors wasn’t comparable. But it seems quite obvious where Donny gets his ideas and so now Canada and Greenland are being threatened with annexation.

Where do you get this? Even the Russian experts -those from the Central Bank, from the universities, and other entities under the direct control of the Kremlin- openly refuse such claims. The numbers -from Rosstat, Russia's national statistics office, and other Kremlin-affiliated institutions- are painting a completely different picture. Even the Russian state-media openly say that Russia's economy is in for a long-term winter, e.g., the country will be facing severe labour shortage, staggering inflation, troubles to payout state pensions.

People are independent of their governments, I don't think someone is less human because of the country they were born in.
