      The war in Ukraine had no economical impact on Europe? Russia is not using hybrid warfare to destabilize Poland and the Baltic States? It’s not attacking infrastructure across Europe? It’s not funding extremists in order to destabilize EU? You’re either blind or not very smart.

        Idk why I am answering to you at all as you know what I mean. Russia is not a threat to Europe. Feel free to feel threatened. I just don’t buy it.

          On what continent is the nation of Ukraine? How can you say Russia is not a threat to Europe when it is literally attacking Europe right now?

          oh look b_tr3e is not threatened! That’s it guys we are wasting time convincing European government leaders when all it took was for b_tr3e to be brave! Of course, b_tr3e is the person that needs to be convinced… as they make policy from portugal to Ukraine. Nobody cares about this comedian Zelensky or Polish parliament.

          Depends on what you do mean by Europe. Yes Russia is not a direct threat to Spain or Italy. But for the Baltics it’s an immediate threat. They might invade by next year. Yes, that would be utterly stupid, but so was invading Ukraine and they still did it. Poland will be next if they are successful in the Baltics and Ukraine. (Which they will if we don’t support them)

          The worst thing we can do is ignore the threat just because it would be stupid for them to do it. When someone threatens you, take them serious. Especially if they have done something similar before.
