Eastern countries that joined NATO after escaping Russian influence

  1. Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, and Macedonia weren’t under Russian influence.

    Albania wasn’t since 1960s.

  2. But muh NATO is not expanding. I hope people realize what has been done. Russia is literally surrounded by NATO bases and nuclear weapons. When it complained you know what NATO responded? Don’t worry we’re not a threat.

    Meanwhile in America there’s not a single Russian base. You can spin it however you want, but NATO has become an aggressive entity.

    You try that with a banana Republic, nothing happens, you try this with Russia, here’s the result.

  3. Rightfully so. After the collapse of the soviet union all the way through the entire 1990s, russia waged several wars to re-integrate or otherwise undermine former soviet states. Abkhazia, Transnistria, Tajikistan, Azerbaijan, Chechnya…

    All of this happened before 1997. The countries joining NATO was hence a direct reaction to imperialistic russian advances in the 90s.

    Something which should always be argued whenever these russian-trolls tries to establish the narrative of “NATO agression towards russia”.

  4. “Russian influence”? I don’t think an illegal foreign occupation can be subsumed as “Russian influence”…

  5. Ukraine should be a member also but unfortunately Germany and France vetoed the start of the process.

    Pandering to Russia and cheap gas were more important to them which resulted in tragedy for Ukraine.

  6. As long as there is some foreign country to loot, women to rape and civilians to torture, our brave Russian soldiers happily march in the defense of Mother Russia.

    Russians: peacefully denazifying Eastern Europe since the times of Ivan the Terrible.
