  1. You're forgetting one thing: no Nato member state has gone into Russia directly but Nato member states are supplying military equipment to Ukraine. If NATO member states would go straight into Russia (would be WW III, which nobody wants) it would be the end of Russia believe me ....

  2.  @marilenaganea6578  😉 I'm very happy for you and your country to be a EU and Nato member state!! Nato member states have installed various Patriot air defense systems (German army as well) all along the eastern Nato border towards Russia/Belarus to protect Nato territory/ members. Germany is also doing the AWACS (sky spying) in cooperation with the US forces. Other Nato member states are also doing air policing along the eastern Nato border towards Russia/Belarus.... Since January the NRFNato VJTF responce force with about 11.000 troops (from which 8.000 are German troops) incl full equipment (like about 40ish Leopard 2 A7V and other "stuff ") are at the Baltics as well. Nato member states/forces are all along the eastern Nato border, why am I writing that? Because hopefully you feel a bit more protected !! All the best to you from a EU/Nato family member 😉

  3. It's not only the air forces, but also some Fregates (German and others) are "cruising" in the Baltic Sea to protect the Baltics from the sea side. Since 2014 Germany is doing its NATO job at the Baltics with about 1.700 troops (from which two thirds are German) including equipment, another 2.000 German troops are on stand by in case of urgent needed action. Since January the NRFNato VJTF responce force with about 11.000 troops (from which 8.000 are German troops) incl full equipment (like about 40ish Leopard 2 A7V and other "stuff ") are at the Baltics as well. It's like that all along the eastern Nato border towards Russia/Belarus ...

  4.  @Tony-uk5xb  Well, Poo-tin is saying a lot, "when the days are long", so what .... Still none of the citizens of EU/Nato member states are eating "hamsters" nor had to "burn their furniture for heating their homes" LOL Btw, those "issues" were on Russian TV as "serious" news 😉 But the "most modern/gg" Lada models came on the market recently with the technology of the 1990s: no air bags, no cat system, special "edition" was delivered with "electric windows" .... mhhh, that sounds .... mhhh LOL Just saying ...

  5. The Russians have to use "flight corridors" to stay in their national "air space", like every other country's air forces as well. If they go into another country's territory/air space they're braking international law, as simple as that.

  6. Mon dieu LOL Those are not the only Nato air forces over there ... Since 2014 Germany is doing its NATO job at the Baltics with about 1.700 troops (from which two thirds are German) including equipment, another 2.000 German troops are on stand by in case of urgent needed action Some German Fregates (and others) are "cruising " in the Baltic Sea to protect the Baltics from the sea side. Since January the NRFNato VJTF responce force with about 11.000 troops ( from which 8.000 are German troops) incl full equipment ( like about 40ish Leopard 2 A7V and other "stuff ") are at the Baltics as well. Some weeks ago the German army has installed various Patriot air defense systems (owed by German army) along the eastern Polish border to protect Poland towards Russia/Belarus. Same was done in Slowakia. Germany is also doing the AWACS (sky spying) in cooperation with the US forces. Just saying ... Btw, President Macron didn't want to "join" the Nato "air defense shield" along the eastern Nato border towards Russia/Belarus... Just saying...

  7. It's not only them, expert LOL On top of the air policing/forces there are some Fregates (German and others) "cruising" in the Baltic Sea to protect the Baltics from the sea side. Since 2014 Germany is doing its NATO job at the Baltics with about 1.700 troops (from which two thirds are German) including equipment, another 2.000 German troops are on stand by in case of urgent needed action. Since January the NRFNato VJTF responce force with about 11.000 troops (from which 8.000 are German troops) incl full equipment (like about 40ish Leopard 2 A7V and other "stuff ") are at the Baltics as well. All along the eastern Nato border it's like that towards Russia/Belarus.

  9.  @marilenaganea6578  Correct! But Poo-tin thinks the opposit and has used it as a poor excuse to invade Ukraine...

  10.  @Kartoffelsuppe_m_Wursteinlage  Err, you are aware it's not a "Pizza delivery service"? Btw, the Ukrainian soldiers/ technicians are in Germany for training... Those Leopards also have to be converted to Ukrainian language/writing and each country has "their" Leopards "made to measure" with "on board technology", all of that has to be sortet first, otherwise it's not helping the Ukrainian soldiers one bit, they need to be able to handle those Leopards properly first ...

  11.  @quyenluong3705  You missed my point: the other guy was writing "how good Russia is doing, eventhough 30ish Nato countries are helping Ukraine ", my answer to that was "apart from it would lead to WW III, which nobody wants, it's different when Nato would attack Russia directly", as at the moment Russia is at war with Ukraine by being in Ukraine, but Russia itself has no "war damages" in its country/territory. Edit typo/autocorrect

  12.  sunny ☀️ day  Don't know, but those can't be called "Nato is in Russia", no? As Russia is in Ukraine as far as I know ... .... and lots of Russian men coming over to the west, fleeying from being at Ukraine fighting as a Russian soldier ...

  13.  @fabiss23  Yes !! And it's a real shame that there still is so much support for him within Russia...

  14.  @Max_Jacoby  Correct! But the beginning of that sentence was: "that would lead to WW III, which nobody wants, but if NATO would go into Russia it would be the end of Russia". Why did I write that? Because one was writing "how good Russia is doing fighting against 30 Nato member states", which isn't the same, as Russia as a country hasn't been destroyed by war as the war is in Ukraine, not in Russia and Nato is supporting Ukraine with military equipment only. It was meant in that context only 😉 Edit typo/ autocorrect

  15.  @metalvideos1961  Yeahhh, great, just get registered at Wagner Group, okaay, it's not as comfortable as sitting in an armchair playing "Call of Duty" holding a can of beer, but: just give it a try ..... cleversmart LOL

  16.  @PharisaerWatch  😉 Yeah, you're probably right ...

  17. Those aren't the only ones over there taking care! Since 2014 Germany is doing its NATO job with about 1.700 troops ( from which two thirds are German) including equipment, another 2.000 German troops are on stand by in case of urgent needed action and some German Fregates (and others) are "cruising" in the Baltic Sea to protect the Baltics from the sea side.

  18.  @throughput6674  Well, around Moskow and St. Petersburg the infrastructure is "up to date", as further you go towards Sibiria as less infrastructure is available, including water and electricity supply. Between 20- 30ish % of Russians don't have water nor electricity supply yet ... Just saying...

  19. Which is what was said ... those are not the only ones, it's Nato ... Since 2014 Germany is doing its NATO job at the Baltics with about 1.700 troops (from which two thirds are German) including equipment, another 2.000 German troops are on stand by in case of urgent needed action. Some German Fregates (and others) are "cruising" in the Baltic Sea to protect the Baltics from the sea side.

All along the eastern Nato border towards Russia/Belarus it's like that.... Add on: Germany is also doing the AWACS (sky spying) in cooperation with the US forces...

  20.  @gagamba9198  Another expert LOL You didn't "especially" take Germany ....you were just complaining that it takes "under 14 minutes" and they should rather stay in the air "24 hours", which is why I wrote what I wrote. Again: another "expert" and those 40ish Leopard 2 A7V are brandnew btw .... As you (should) know, Nato is working "multinational" in "rotating intervalls", some countries just send 2 tanks and 30 troops, that's how it works. Ahh, but as a "Trumpling" you knew that anyway, I guess...

  21. Doesn't matter as they are Nato member states...
