@Cowbee TASS told you that, did it? I'm very glad that Russia is no threat to western Europe (except for assassinations, cyber warfare, and mysterious drone incursions). I'm sure that will remain true after they've finished being no threat to eastern Europe.

I'm off from this thread now because I don't want to give you any more credit towards your Lada.

Nice racism on your part, very western of you. Sorry, but I'm a westerner too, and much of this has already been admitted by western press.

Misc. Sources

NATO expansion

In May 1990 speech Secretary General Manfred Wörner said “The very fact that we are ready not to deploy NATO troops beyond the territory of the Federal Republic gives the Soviet Union firm security guarantees.”

This shows 2 things:

  1. As we already knew NATO had told the Soviet Union although that it would not move further East than East Germany
  2. They understood full well that NATO moving East was seen as threatening by USSR given the promise not to do so was a “security guarantee” for them.
