        Can you at least give Canada a heads up when you start making it even easier for Trump and Putin to get our country from all sides at once? Thanks.

          100%. Russia likes to control the countries on their borders, to act as a buffer against invasion. Better to defend you country on someone else’s soil, and destroy their assets. We use the oceans for the exact same thing.

          That is, until he deliberately made enemies of those on our direct borders. Next he will want to control those countries, because he will feel it is very important to controlling the borders.

          And all these ideas are coming from Putin. After their meeting, expect HitlerPig to start spouting all sorts of nonsensical concepts that would be terrible for us, but great for Putin.

            Russia likes to control the countries on their borders, to act as a buffer against invasion.

            And, after having engulfed many countries while building their empire, Russia now has the longest border in the word, yet still wants any state adjacent to its border to be subservient to it.

            Fuck 'em. Russia should be broken up into tiny pieces.
