The only area Russia is superior is in nuclear weapons, but not by much.

Numerically NATO is vastly superior, and in general we have much more sophisticated weapons as well.

No, the West is not afraid of Putin by any stretch of the imagination.
Plus NATO weapon technology is significantly more advanced than what Russia has. And who cares who has more nukes?both side have enough to destroy humanity.

Do you have any clue why Russia is in Ukraine?

look up this exact title in YouTube


Vladimir Putin's Speech on Ukraine and US Foreign Policy and NATO


I won't judge yet it is a long video and I have not finished it yet.

Not sure if this will work:

All good ideas, as for Sweden and Finland they need to be admitted to NATO straight away.

The UK has banned Russian ships from it's ports, and dockers have refused to unload Russian gas at the Isle of Grain LNG port in Kent.

The Isle of Grain LNG is the largest terminal in Europe for importing liquefied natural gas.

Putin wants to take more countries to establish again that USSR But I do not believe what comes out of Putin's mouth. NEVER BELIEVE WHAT COMES OUT OF A DICTATOR 'S MOUTH.

I hear the approval process can be as fast as two days. As being formally admitted into NATO not sure.

What is communist about Russia in it's current state? Given that the international community has crippled their economy, that suggests that it's not nationalized and that it's private companies that are being targeted. Russia is as communist as Germany.

Do you perpetually live in the early 1980s?

They are gathering evidence of war crimes. As we all know Hitler was responsible for 6 million war crimes. I am watching the slaughter of Ukrainian civilians children up to the elderly. The humanity of the world and this nation is down the tubes. We allowed Hitler to commit 6 million war crimes and today we're watching the same.

The west has a dottering senile old man leading the USA and beta male sissies like Trudeau and Macron in Canada and Europe.


I am sure Putin is laughing at the weakness of western leadership and this is a huge factor in why he is doing what he is doing.
