Russia is a threat to its former satellite states. They may even threaten to invade Ukraine, again. <satire>
It is an aggressive dictatorship with its leader being a psychopathic killer who used radioactive tea and contaminated underpants to kill off dissidents. What part of "Psycho in control" don't you understand?
Are you Russian, by any chance?
Threat to satellite states... questionable.
Aggressive, yes but dictator again questionable.
There are much worse governments out there that we seem to be best chums with provided they have enough oil.

Nope. I'm just pointing out the poor outcomes in the past of goading super powers and the double standards of how the west will go ballistic if Russia buddied up with Mexico to build military bases near the US border and how other considerably worse governments seem to be tolerated anyway.

Earlier on, I said I understand Russia's security concerns. But we are were discussing why Russia's previous satellite states have joined NATO. Well, I was... You don't seem to want to accept my point and are going off on a sputnik tangent.

Russia only seems to get aggressive towards European states because of NATO or the imminent concerns about NATO, not the lack of.
It doesn't take much reading between the lines to see why Ukraine has become a target in recent years for russian aggression.

Putin wants to spread this concept far and wide.
It's interesting that King George of England has the opportunity to send in troops into Moscow and rescue his first cousin the Tsar and his family (including Queen Victoria's grand-daughter) from the bolsheviks but he chose not to.
The stubbornness of King George to help his own family may well have changed the course of world history. Had the Tsar survived there likely would never have been communism in Russia or later in China.

"What we've got here is failure to communicate", still.
"READ MY LIPS!" Eastern NATO members had a bloody good reason to join NATO for protection. If you can't accept this, we will have to agree to disagree.
