The reaction to Russia's unexpected and vicious aggression...

...has resulted in aggressive posturing among the allies against Russia. Let's face it, Russia is on a genocidal rampage; first Ukraine and now the world.

At present, NATO has 30 members. In 1949, there were 12 founding members of the Alliance: Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, the United Kingdom and the United States. The other member countries are: Greece and Türkiye (1952), Germany (1955), Spain (1982), the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland (1999), Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia (2004), Albania and Croatia (2009), Montenegro (2017) and North Macedonia (2020).

This posture by Estonia should make Putin nervous. NATO is an ally and if Putin thinks he is going to penetrate any border along any of these countries he will be met with a wall of preparedness.

Putin needs to remember one thing. He did this. He put his ego and politics before the lives of people and NATO took notice. There is no country in the world immune from a response to conducting genocide. If Putin wants this to calm down, he needs to end the confrontation with Ukraine and the world. When Putin deprives the world of Ukrainian grain it is declaring war across the globe in realizing there will be people to suffer from hunger and starvation. Every country on Earth is worried about their people and this has to stop.

Despite being geographically close (click here) Estonia and Russia have a fractious relationship, due in part to the former’s ties with the United States. In recent days the Estonian Defence Ministry has confirmed the purchase of a new weaponry system that will significantly bolster its armoury.

Estonia has bought a number of high-precision, long-range multiple launch rocket systems, with approval from US authorities, which will provide the small Baltic country with a defensive attack capacity.

NO ONE IS BACKING DOWN AND ALLOWING RUSSIA TO RUN ROUGHSHOD OVER THE WORLD.
