According to the Russian president, Finland was “dragged” into Nato.

As a Finn I say this is fine. Every military resource that is tied down and not raping and destroying Ukraine is net positive.

    We all don’t need a war with China and we don’t need a war with Russia… We need to allow the Russian people and Chinese people to have a full democracy not a fake democracy, not a flawed democracy, but a full democracy ( like Ireland for example).

    We don’t need anymore killing or wars or any of it; really. We need to act like one earth and share resources and save the planet…

    Democracies tend to get along with other democracies… That’s the only reason I bring it up 😉

      We need to allow

      Oh crap, I guess we didn’t realize we were sitting on the remote with the button that prevented that!

      Honestly, I appreciate the “good vibes” tone here but it’s painfully naive in any practical sense.

        Ye, “allow” / help.

        If Russia doesn’t have intervention and doesn’t get reformed by other countries it will ALWAYS go back to its corrupt/crooked ways. If it’s closed off like North Korea it will absolutely be even more extremist then now. And now is pretty fucking bad already.

        Think Japan and Germany… If they didn’t have the world get involved, they’d still be what they were in WW2.

          I’m not sure there is a way to “help” other than war, unfortunately

          Edit: which is a pretty crappy wayto help

      Right and how are we going to encourage that state of affairs? Because we tried asking really nicely and that didn’t work we tried sanctions and that didn’t work and the people don’t seem that interested in rising up themselves so what do we do?

      The options are war or to ignore it.

        Rising up themselves?

        They did and they also left the country. The ones who were able to anyways. The rest are brainwashed.

        No one is ignoring anything and Russian army is at great fatigue…

        I don’t know what the solution is. But new conflicts and wars aren’t a solution at all. Just a step closer to WW/// OR global genocide by nuclear weapons= mass extinction of humans … And probably a big loss of knowledge; history; culture ETC.

        NTHX

          Thanks for the downvotes. You all don’t think WW/// or nuclear war can happen/is possibilities?
