Clear and Present Danger: NATO Forces Actually Pose Threat to Russia
"From their point of view it looks like this: the Warsaw Pact was dissolved and NATO absorbed Eastern Germany; then it absorbed Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, followed by Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, and then by Romania and Bulgaria. And now NATO is attempting to absorb Ukraine," he said. "There is clear and constant NATO aggression towards Russia, and that’s how Russians perceive all of this."
Furthermore, this threat is not a figment of the Russians’ imagination, the politician argues; it really does exist. "It’s not about whether I like Russia or not, it’s about facts," Korwin-Mikke remarks. "It’s not Russian troops getting closer to Washington, it’s US troops getting closer to Moscow."
