Pentagon Gets Called on Blaming Putin for Moving Russia Closer to NATO

You are preaching to the choir..

My comments were based on what putin stated at his last QnA with the media - That crimea being a part of Ukraine was illegal.

I maintain if Russia wants to place that idiot ass game then Putin should return Kaliningrad to Germany, who is the rightful owner of that piece of land. Ironically Stalin kept it and refused to give it back at the end of WWII. He forcibly removed all Germans and replaced them with russians, like they did in Crimea with the Tartars.

Oh no question, I was responding to Putin's tendentious BS. That man is no fool, he doesn't care about truth or not---words are just another weapon to be wielded to enhance his autocratic power.

The problem with threatening Kalningrad is that Putin will just take Estonia then.

Hence the flaw in Putins logic about the collapse of the USSR.
