The US has a very long history of invading and interfering in almost every Latin American country.

It’s hard to keep count, but we just kidnapped the sovereign head of state of Venezuela.

Depending on who you asked we did so to stop a potential foreign military base from being located in Venezuela.

Or we just felt like stealing Venezuelan oil.

Cuba is still embargoed.

The Iraq war had various war crimes. But for some reason no convicted war criminals.

Yeah and? Like I said, if Mexico had the reasons for it, they should join an alliance to guard against USA aggression.

And then if the USA said "we gotta invade Mexico because we're threatened by the alliance they set up to counter OUR aggression," that would be a bit hypocritical I think!

I'm not defending the US, you're preoccupied with attacking them. Ukraine has every right to join NATO because Russia is a threat to them, not because of the US.
