Regular reminder that the only time article 5 of NATO was invoked, it was USA asking others to help them in war they actually wanted.

And when unwanted war became possble in EU came USA ended up allying itself with Russia while trying to extort the victim country for minerals. It did helped initially, but it did not lasted and USA turned into a bully.

All the while threatening annexation of parts of EU and Canada.

The EU is not a member of NATO, neither is Ukraine.

Regular reminder that Germany has given Russia more money (for gas) than they have given to protect Ukraine.

Which is still not the same as open aliance USA is doing. And EU countries are members of NATO. And did followed commitment to the war USA wanted. It is USA who is threatening annexation of multiple countries now, it is USA who supports Putin and openly praises dictators.

Russia expansion is threatening Europe, not just Ukraine. You know it, I know it. And USA is about to help them.

Ukraine was stupid to give up nukes, they should never trust promises about help in case of attack. They should keep the atomic bombs, but it is too late for that.
