Head of NATO says Russia invaded Ukraine because of NATO expansionism
From the guy's own mouth.
You're viewing a single thread.
Literally nowhere in these remarks does it say "expansion" or "expansionism"...
You know synonyms exist right? And "enlargement" and "expansionism" are cleary synonyms in this context.
The background was that President Putin declared in the autumn of 2021, and actually sent a draft treaty that they wanted NATO to sign, to promise no more NATO enlargement. That was what he sent us. And was a pre-condition for not invade Ukraine. Of course we didn't sign that. The opposite happened. He wanted us to sign that promise, never to enlarge NATO.
But they used Ctrl + F
Ahh yes you have to think a bit critically.
You have to read the whole article instead of Ctrl+Fing...
