What Russian channels has Simon been watching? When he leaves the metaphorical shores of England he does have the habit of falling on his face. 2:34 Does not mean NATO would 'not be moving east', as German (part of NATO) forces would be allowed into East Germany following reunification, and Germany still remains under the US nuclear umbrella.
Simon, making his case for Russian defence, forgets that Russia has been an aggressor nation, invading Poland 1918-21 and 1939, Finland in 1939, Hungary in 1956 and Czechoslovakia in 1968, and that NATO is a defensive alliance to prevent this kind of thing happening again.
Simon may be sympathetic to Russia wanting a 'buffer zone' (i.e. an area of Russian control) on their border, but that would mean having jurisdiction over the internal affairs of sovereign nations - why should that be allowed? The Russian attitude toward their place in the world - 'Ruski Mir'- does not mean the buffer countries would be 'neutral' Simon, but satellites. Putin said it himself, the dissolution of the Soviet Union (that is freedom for Eastern Europe and former occupied soviet territories) was a 'disaster'. There is only one factor, one person, responsible for the invasion of Ukraine and that is Vladimir Putin.
