Because that's not how NATO works. What's the point of the alliance if you can pick and choose who to defend?

@Diego Vasquez orcs are not that good in geography. So you have to forgive him for it.

@Jonasz42069 and with Finland, SPB is threatend from two sides and it can be blocked within the Gulf of Finland. Not to mention it is okay for Russia to have weapons near Warsaw and Berlin, but imagine there being weapons, futher away btw, somewhat near Moscow. Hypocrite ))

@kocik and there we see the imperialist mindset. The European states have just as much rights as Russia. It is okay for the Europeans to have nuclear weapons stationed close to them and pointed at their capitals, but if it happens to Russia it is outrageous. We, living in neither imperlialist powers the US or Russia, have the same rights and concerns as you do. Thanks for showing us your misguided arrogance in thinking Russia is more important than Europe. It isn't. So that makes you a hypocrite. Russia does the same thing it doesn't want to happen to it, to Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, and Germany. But I guess it is okay to have nuclear weapons near those countries capitals?

@kocik Russia's NATO bid was rejected because it tried to bypass the queue and necessary reforms just "because it is Russia," which isn't how becoming a NATO member works. I didn't say you're from Russia. I called you a hypocrite for supporting Russia's bs claims whilst it does the same thing to those countries around him. The rest of the statement you make proves what I am saying. I will repeat what I said, the concerns and security of European states have equal merit to those of Russia. It is not more important than those states, regardless of the US's position. You can't cry about weapons being placed near your capital if you do the same to those countries around you (you is Russia). That is hypocrite. You behave like European populations don't matter and only the Russians do.

@kocik The war is an imperialist project. If we look back at history, it is not the first time the Russians have done this with Ukraine (or the other states around them). The essay Putin wrote himself (published on the Kremlin website) as well as his statements about Ukraine make it very clear that he doesn't think Ukrainians exist, nor their culture or language. A recurring theme in Russian history is the repression of Ukrainian culture, language, and other expressions of a nation. This is because of the believe that without Ukraine under Russian controll, there can be no Russian Empire and for Russians the notion of Russia existing without being an empire is inconceivable, just like those growing up in the 19th century couldn't have imagined the UK not having its empire. About Sweden joining, they want to be protected. There is the old saying from Latin that those who desire peace should be prepared for war. European countries aren't interested in war, but by being tied to the US and together as well, you ensure that you're not invaded. There is a reason Russia invaded Georgia (2008) and Ukraine (2014 and 2022) and not any of the Baltic States. Countries tend to only invade those countries they consider weaker or, at maximum, equal to themselves. Joining NATO means you add all of the other NATO members on this power scale. Russia itself is an aggressive, imperialist power, and therefore, it believes its neighbours are the same. Someone who easily kills others also thinks others can do that to him.
