    If the Russians didn’t want more countries in NATO, then they shouldn’t have invaded Ukraine. It’s not “imperialism” or “russophobia” for Finland to be afraid of a Russian invasion.

        Why shouldn’t former DDR countries sign a defensive pact? Why would Russia not want them to do that?

          former DDR countries

          when you definitely know what you’re talking about

          this is the former DDR country, singular

          Why would Russia not want them to do that?

          Because NATO agreed not to? Because they expect agreements to be upheld?

        Never forget that NATO was collaborating with Nazis and performing false flag terrorist operations in Europe after WW2 to instill red panic and install pro-US leaders.
