    To discourage Russia from invading it’s neighbors, maybe? As it repeatedly has. You’re not suggesting that the massed troops aren’t a direct threat, are you? Because the last time that happened, Russia did indeed invade Ukraine.

      Russia has never invaded Ukraine. If you are talking about Crimea, there was a referendum held on joining Russia, and the large majority agreed. Not surprising when a fascist coup is happening, and nationalist militias intend to murder ethnic Russians.

        Untrue, comrade. Donbas was lousy with Russian troops. You’ve got quite a list of lies there, too. The best one is divining intent without a shred of evidence.

          Using that logic, NATO has invaded Ukraine since Ukraine is crawling with NATO troops.

          I have watched videos from Donbass, and there was not a single Russian soldier to be seen. But if you are so sure, show me a single picture/video of a soldier with Russian insignia in Donbass. It is true that individual Russians travelled to Donbass and joined the militia. Nothing wrong with that, fascists from all the western countries are fighting alongside the Ukrainian military.

            Lol, they dropped that pretense quite a while ago. You’re late to the disinformation campaign. The little green men are so 2014.

            Also, if everyone looks like a fascist to you, is that because you’re a communist?

                Dudes with no sense of irony. Probably dead to Russian shelling that Russia still denies.
