Putin can only bark, he can't bite. Sweden also will join the alliance soon. The sudden and unwarranted invasion of Ukraine by Russia has left the Nordic countries with no choice but to seek refuge. After all, to be forewarned is to be foretold. It's more dangerous for those countries to sit on the fence than join NATO.

Putin is the one of d worst thing to have happened to Russia, I hope the Russians see this, Russia needs to open itself to Europe and the west, they need to enter the international market, isolation is not good, they need to make friends and less enemies, make Russia open to global markets, not everything is about putting gun before butter,
Well it is complicated.
Russia opened up to Europe but immediately the us started sanctions against Russia without restraint using it's alloes

Since 1940s, I never see country wey invade a sovereign country to annex it's Territory..
Na due to this Russia bullying tendencies make all these miniaturized countries dey join NATO.
And Russia has proven them right by invading Ukraine to annex her Territory.

And one thing is certain, on no account would NATO attack Russia first.
So those countries are joining to protect themselves.
But the Truth is that, USA won't take this thing they are doing to Russia.
Taking that Cuban missile crises into account.
USA are hypocrites anyways.
No USA is not hypothetical,if Russia had develop n built her science technology and economy to make their citizens comfortable and happy,they allow their citizens to enjoy freedom,they were welcoming to visitors n friendly to other nations, naturally their closet neighbors wout want to be their friends and allies,but the opposite is the case,hence no one really trust them, it's Russia's fault,you build friendship rather than force it.

shut up ur mouth America no force anybody join nato everybody dey join on their own because US na major military superpower and superiorily culturally influential( music movies lifestyle financial superpower) and nobody wants to be on their bad side, compare countries in the middle east that are friendly to the US ie Qatar uae Saudi to useless countries that are friendly with Russia, Iran Afghanistan Syria, then u will know why its better to join nato

That's the thing again, Russia should just be careful,.if they open too much, US would be more than happy to weaponize sanctions, but again Russia can't make it without opening up their economy, regulate d market, ensure this foreign companies have physical presence in Russia so they can hold onto them if the west place sanctions

Point of correction, at least if you were too young to know then, history must have taught you how the US invaded and occupy Iraq before they withdrew some years back. As o am typing this, same US are on a sovereign state soil- Syria , without being invited. Of course, invaders always use one pretext or the other to justify their invasion.

US paid money to acquire their territory unlike Russia who used force, remember Alaska was actually bought from Russia by the US.

On the one hand, Finalnd should not do this really. Russia just does not want to be surrounded by enemies...which is why it is acting the way it acts. If you guys read Russian history, Russia has been invaded too many times because it has a very long land border, and enemies can easily penetrate without bothering about a response. That's why it does not want Ukraine to join NATO...plus Ukraine even sits on a very weak point in Russia's defences.

On the other hand, Finland does not trust Moscow. At the end, they were 1) colonised by Russia, 2) fought russia in recent memory 3) If Russia decided that it was in its interest to bomb Finland, they would....and no one would bat an eyelid. Looking at Ukraine, in times like this, one has to sign up to be America's lapdog so that Russia won't bother you much.

(Sometimes global affairs resembles Mafia affairs. Countries comming under the protection of the local Mafia warlord to protect them from another Mafia warlord. Maybe La Cosa Nostra was unto something).

That's why anyone backing a side is backing one warlord against another. Make we Nigerians just siddon look. Anyone backing NATO, USA or Rossiya should stop. If it is in their interest to bomb us to the pre-cambrian era....they will do it, and the world will look on. There are no good guys here. Just humans engaging in a (you know what) measuring contest. Like the Babylonians, Persians and Egyptians once did...

I gave you a thumb, Russia did this to themselves.

First, they do not have any right to determine who these countries associate with, they are sovereign countries in their own rights and should be free.

Secondly, if Russia ‘loves’ her neighbors aka these surrounding countries, why are marching troops across their borders killing and maiming them? Russia aggression did not start today.

Thirdly, it is telling that, these countries are forsaking Russia their ‘brother’ and neighbor to join Russia sworn enemy…..if you blood brothers are choosing to join force with your enemies and willing to join the enemy to burn down your house, it means you did are doing something wrong…note this not just one brother of yours doing this, not two, not three, they are many and even those still in your camp are afraid of you.

One can talk about US aggression and hypocrisy and selfishness all they want, but these countries are running to them instead of to Russia and there is a good reason for that…..and talking of selfishness, we are all selfish, that is how God created every, it is our survival instinct, same with countries, being selfish as a country is the only way to survive and have an edge.

If you were asked to pick between living in US or any country in the West and Russia, which one will you choose. Stop being hypocritical. Russians and Putin are both monsters with no blood flowing in them. They producing nuclear weapons will earn them respect in the world. And speak as if they are he only country with such and if a nuclear war breaks up they are immune. There is nothing you can point to in modern times they have contributed to human development. Have you ever seen a made in Russia car. They made a mess out of our Ajaokuta. Russia is a corrupt and fascist country

They also attacked, drove off , murdered hundreds of the natives, and brought in immigrants to replace them..mostly white immigrants.

Even where they signed treaties, they eventually repudiated them, and broke them with no compunction.

Sometimes they bought, but most of the time, it was violence galore.

(Yes , I have read US histroy, and yes, the russians too were violent)

If it is any comfort, most nations are like that. UK was formed by people coming from Germany and displacing and forcefully assimilating most of the natives. That's why they speak English and not a language similar to Welsh or Scots Gaelic.
