Yes. And Russia’s regime is much more autocratic today than In 2020 or 2010 or 2000 when most analysts still considered Russia a democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

@McFaul Once you’re autocratic, can you be MORE autocratic, as in “growing autocracy?” Can Putin be more autocratic… https://t.co/N6Ppyfrkjm

This. Some analysts only focus on the supply of security from NATO after the USSR collapse and not the demand from those once captive by Moscow living in the heart of Europe. — PolitiTweet.org

The Warsaw Pact was the only military alliance in history which attacked exclusively its own members.

PS, the ONLY reason some Ukrainians want to join NATO now is because Putin annexed/invaded their country. Pretty rational response. If Putin doesn’t want NATO to expand — or more precisely demand for expansion to grow — maybe he should stop invading neighbors? — PolitiTweet.org
