      Nothing wrong with that. Many geopolitical locations definitely need defenses

      NATO has it’s issues with US & Turkey for starters but still it’s the only viable option for some places

          In many cases yes. Currently it’s also a needed defense for it’s members from other invaders and destroyers. Ideally NATO wouldn’t be needed. Dismantling it would be great, simultaneously or after the other rogue powers.

              Yeah Yugoslavia…

              On the other hand, today, Europeans have no other options to try to stay safe which sucks

                  Yeah I know, it was just one easily horrid example. Of course Afghanistan as a more recent case is probably known for younger generations
