So when putin said in his speech that he wants to take back ex-soviet states, he wasnt talking seriously? And when he sayed he will drop nukes if nato troops enter Ukraine, he was joking? And why use Ukraine as human shields if we could give them more weapons so they wouldnt die?

He literally said the opposite of that.

But if he can’t be trusted and he’s coming for the Baltics, then you should be enlisting and pressuring the Baltic states to deploy.

Instead you’re letting Ukraine do the dirty work or you don’t actually believe this.

The entire war has been an escalating game of nuclear chicken for NATO anyway. If Europe is under imminent Russian threat, then you can’t be deterred by the threat of nukes. Otherwise you should just let Russia march through to Paris.

Sending weapons so Ukraine so they can defend themselves is logical. Sending weapons so they can defend YOU is shameful.

Personaly if it was up to me I would have sayed to join in and battle but who would listen to us simple people, baltics would not stand a chance in a battle with russia. So as, bot with our as single people pinion, we are stuck playing proxy war in Ukraine with russia. And thats why atleast we are asking to arm them better so atleast if we are using Ukraine as our weapon, that they would spill as least of theyr blood as possible. We are marching asking to help with anything we can, weapons, medicine, troops. You would say if you want to fight so bad why dont you go yourslef? And do what? Get shot instantly? I had my beginers cours in the military and i know that i know nothing how to fight, I just can leave it to professionals. Instead of arming 1000s of simpletons with basic weapons why not arm 10 professional troops with some of the best jets and best tanks, less casualtys less peoples lives ruined.

Iam leaving to eat some Ukrainian borscht, and i hope you dont ruine your day with usless bantering.
