@craigboden9455 Russia does not need a warm water port, they only want it. And they think they're entitled to have it regardless of it being in another country. And thus, it again circles right back to being all Russia's fault.

@craigboden9455 No, they stole it. And that's the fundamental issue with Russia. They feel entitled to steal whatever they want. Russia is the only European nation that never decolonized.

@asnark7115 No, it was not already theirs. Contrary to your claims, the lease on Sevastopol naval base was permanent, and leasing is not the same thing as ownership. How would you have reacted if Britain had used the same logic to decide they wouldn't return Hong Kong to China after all? Or if the USA had used that logic to decide to keep the Panama Canal forever instead of handing the Canal Zone back to Panama?

@lastspud7030 Macgegor's employer is Russia.

@minhloi4536 Care to repeat that argument in complete sentences so that it's actually coherent? Ukraine's independence didn't come from any "Minsk treaty", and the Minsk agreements of 2014 and 2015 were Russian impositions on Ukraine's independence, imposed at gunpoint. The modern equivalent of the "unequal treaties" that the Western powers and Japan imposed on China in the 19th century. "NATO expansion" is frankly none of Russia's business. Maybe if Russia just stopped threatening all of its neighbors, they'd stop joining NATO for protection against Russian aggression.

Because Macgregor is a stooge of the Kremlin.

@meissnerflux I'm saying that the other European nations were forced to grant independence to their colonies, while Russia never did.
