You know the Russian perspective from your wife, I can tell you Czech/Slovak/Polish etc. perspective. NATO expansion was not something that was forced upon us. We badly wanted it because Russian occupation fucked up our countries so bad we wanted to make sure it doesn't happen again. Americans could have thrown us under the bus not to anger the bear, and I'm glad they didn't.

This is not a Russian perspective. Read the second line of the note. "Born and raised in the Ukrainian part of former USSR."

This is precisely what I was referring to when I described a conflict driven mindset.

Ask yourself, if Putin were to magically dissappear of the face of the planet tomorrow (a scenario I would gladly welcome) would that contribute to avoiding a war between the USA and China?

And, from a planetary perspective, which war is more likely to have more devastating consequences: an indirect confrontation between USA and Russia, in Ukraine, or a direct confrontation between the USA and China?
