    @lxo And the other issue with this narrative is that Eastern European countries voluntarily sought admission to the EU and in some cases NATO. At the time, I thought NATO should have been abolished after the USSR broke up, but I admit that I was wrong.

    Why did those countries, after spending over 45 years forcibly integrated with the social / political / economic / military aims of #Russia suddenly flee into the EU's and NATO's embraces? Could they have a clearer view of what awaited them if they did not join than world socialist organizations do?

    I urge you to read beyond those groups' opinion pieces. Talk to people from Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Moldava, Ukraine ... it is shocking how anti-Russian they are, and how much their views on this war disagree with groups like Common Dreams and wsws.
