NATO refused to take into account Moscow's opinion on its expansion

36

The United States is confident that there is no need to take into account the opinion of Russia or any other state in matters of other countries joining NATO. This was announced on December 30 by one of the representatives of the American presidential administration.

Our position is absolutely clear. These decisions are to be made by sovereign countries. Of course, in consultation with the alliance. And not to others

- said the source during a telephone briefing following the recent dialogue between Joseph Biden and Vladimir Putin.



Earlier, the Russian Federation submitted to the United States its requirements for ensuring its own security. In the documents of the Russian side, in particular, there are theses about the non-expansion of NATO to the east and about the rejection of the deployment of Western military bases on the territory of the former Soviet republics.

Meanwhile, during telephone conversations between the leaders of Russia and the United States on Thursday, December 30, Vladimir Putin threatened his American counterpart with a complete rupture of bilateral relations in the event of expansion of anti-Russian sanctions. Biden stressed that the United States does not plan to deploy offensive strike weapons in Ukraine.

The Kremlin’s message following the summit talks said that the discussion turned out to be useful to both sides - the conversation between the presidents was of a businesslike and frank nature.

      Someone would have been waiting for another.
      This means that we need to CREATE such a threat to the States that they would readily and enthusiastically seize on all our demands.
      As a matter of fact, we need to start a nuclear war against the master of NATO with full determination and confidence that we have no alternatives. As Khrushchev did in 1962. And to do this even before negotiations.
      Let them stop and persuade us, if their asses are dear to them - we still have nothing to lose.
      It really is

      I would like to draw your attention to the format of the negotiations. USA, Russia, NATO.
      The United States is separate from NATO. It seems to me that when NATO does not accept the demand of the Russian Federation, the United States will say: "Do you have a desire to fight? Fight, but without us." The United States distances itself in advance from the heroism of Estonia and Iceland. The United States has its own serious problems, they will have to be solved together with the Russian Federation and China (and China, let me remind you, supported the demands of Russia). NATO makes no sense without the United States.

        You're right. We incorporated this into our demands by separate treaties with the United States and NATO, and the United States did not demand reformatting. This distance gives them the freedom to maneuver.
        As for the threat of nuclear weapons from our side to the States, it allows Biden to save face in front of an internal audience when (if) he backs down.

        USA is the helmsman of NATO! If the United States accepts the demand of the Russian Federation, then NATO will accept it! Unless, of course, the "undercover" games of the United States begin ... Then it seems like the United States accepts, but NATO does not ... But de jure and de facto NATO are US satellites!)

          The United States began to have financial problems and they will continue to worsen. They will have to remove NATO from the allowance. Different positions in relation to Russia can be a convenient pretext.

        If the States deal with Russia and China, they will reformat the rest of the world without resistance. On the agenda of the masters of the world is the reduction of the world's population. Hitler's Germany with its concentration camps will seem like a child's play in a sandbox, and most likely you, me, along with our children, and other "superfluous" peoples will be disposed of in a global digital concentration camp.
        My fate and the fate of my daughter, as well as of millions of other Russians, is connected with the fate of Russia, the population of which the West will get rid of in the first place.
        Thus, we really have no other choice than Russia.
        As for the threat to the States, our nuclear weapons are in the hands of a country that has nothing to lose, I think COMPLETELY CONVINCING

      You are sitting in the cellar, right ?! The United States has almost completely withdrawn from world affairs, China is becoming the world hegemon, so contact Beijing - will you be allowed to live from there or not.

      On the agenda of the masters of the world is the reduction of the world's population. Hitler's Germany with its concentration camps will seem like a child's play in a sandbox, and most likely you, me, along with our children, and other "superfluous" peoples will be disposed of in a global digital concentration camp.

      What kind of "digital concentration camp" can there be in Uryupinsk if they plan to turn off the Internet there? And they plan to turn it off not from Washington, but from Moscow! laughing So that you do not conspire against the central government there to rebel.

      My fate and the fate of my daughter, as well as of millions of other Russians, is connected with the fate of Russia, the population of which the West will get rid of in the first place.

      HOW?? HOW?! How can an out-of-mind Biden suddenly get rid of you and your daughter? Skabeeva told you that. Lying - Biden has no mechanism to get to you.

      Thus, we really have no other choice than Russia.

      If you want to die, declare war on the USA and NATO.

      As for the threat to the States, our nuclear weapons are in the hands of a country that has nothing to lose, I think COMPLETELY CONVINCING

      So not a single dog even thinks to attack you. It’s you who are giving Biden an ultimatum, it’s not you. And pay attention to one nuance: why the former republics of the USSR and the countries of the Warsaw Pact all together, in a race, rushed to join NATO and the EU ?? Why is no one eager to join the CSTO ?? WHY?? - Ask yourself a question ?!
      You cannot answer this question. Ask your daughter - maybe she will tell you the answer ?!

      Well, NATO with this statement changed the narrative "Russia wants to attack Ukraine in order to restore the dream of the USSR" to "Russia is forced to act because NATO is aggressively threatening." Now, if anything, it will be easier for Russia to enforce peace. Western societies will not have that support for retaliatory actions, and all the dire consequences for the West from Russia's sanctions and countermeasures will provoke a protest. Moreover, there will be no support for the war for Ukraine itself.

      I would not take to heart what some 379th clerk of the Biden administration said, who was not even named. For whom he said this and for what purpose, we do not know.
      Ukraine is constantly being told that in no case will they discuss their issues behind their backs. Yes, yes, of course, by no means ...
      So what? They do it all the time. Non-brothers after each negotiations between Putin and Biden enthusiastically discuss that Ukraine was the main topic of the negotiations. And they call them last.

            You are always chasing some kind of infantile nonsense.
            It is clear that at the level of official documents nothing will be said that contradicts the UN Charter. But for this there are media and statements of even officials, so that everything becomes clear and understandable. Even Ursula von der Leyen (when he was a Defense Ministry) said that Germany would not build up its armed forces even if the Russian Federation was stationed Iskanders in the Kaliningrad region, because sees no threat from Russia. They do not plan to defend themselves, to say nothing of the Balts. Experts simply speak directly about the lack of NATO's intentions to protect the Balts. They are used for informal leakage of intentions. This is a common practice.
            Officially, the WB gave Poland guarantees in 1939. Was it easier for Poland?
            Officially, Israel has no nuclear weapons. This did not stop Golda Meir from saying that nuclear weapons, of course, do not exist, but if necessary, Israel will use it immediately.
            Serious NATO countries simply dream that someone will save them from a pack of small inadequacies, which out of the blue are heating up the situation to a dangerous level.

        Money…
        Who wants? First of all, the elites of these countries, the elites that grew up during the deification of the West and often illegally enriched themselves. They order music in the media, which promote the ideology of the "promised land".
        Some hope to hide there with money, while others dream of going there to work and stay there forever, I think that they will be trampled there or thinking that it is still better there than in their countries ... this is true for the entire post of the USSR and even more. The whole world is doing to go west and catch on there.
        And Russia ... this is also one of the countries overcoming the consequences of endless wars, revolutions, riots directed both from outside and from within ...
        In any case, it has more resources than many countries in the world, and this helps not to fall completely and even to rebel against the pressure of the collective West.
