What do you think your country should do if the world’s most war-mongering and most powerful superpower is making a military alliance explicitly against your country, and is coup’ing neighboring ones if their population doesn’t want to do so?
I certainly wouldn’t be calling for an invasion of neighboring countries on the basis of not liking their government. Not justified for Russia, not justified for anyone imo. But hey, can’t have governments who aren’t aligned with us, gotta invade and even blame them for being invaded.
What if your country has tried repeatedly to join it, but has been refused every time? Seriously, what the fuck else is there to do?
Not start a war over not being allowed to join an international organization for one. “If you don’t let us in on your military alliance I’ll start attacking”. What a mindset.
Tell that to the Eastern Ukrainians who this fascist government doesn’t represent, and has been killing for resisting.
They did negotiate with Russia, or their self-proclaimed states did. NATO didn’t prevent that. Neither is it preventing Ukraine’s government from doing it. No idea what you were on about there.
You haven’t answered what else you think they should, or even could, do.
I think they should stop attacking other countries. It’s really simple as that. It would be healthy to find some other ways to deal with unfriendly governments other than attacking them. Or just learn to accept that not everyone is aligned with you, as most do in similar situation. Though the idea that attacking and invading them is the only imaginable way is very on brand.
NATO is an organization of primarily imperial core countries, not really an international one.
International just means “existing, occurring, or carried on between nations.” There’s two or more different nations, it’s international.
