    Not sure if “NATO Plus” is an actual thing, but it gets the point across.

      @Ninmi Seems to be a mirror of Russian and Chinese imperialistic behaviour maybe? We see similar patterns in Europe where Finland joins Nato after decades of neutrality as a direct response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

        China does seem to be a bit of a ticking time bomb. It’s a time for democracies to stick together regardless of geographic location.

          I guess this is the rationale behind Nato+, but I’m not an expert for military matters. Democracy and even the most basic human rights are at stake everywhere, however, but I agree that the Chinese government is certainly one of the bigger threats.
