Russia has reason to be paranoid about Nato
Yet the US and UK invaded Iraq causing over a million civilian casualties. Nato also invaded Libya, Afghanistan and Somalia. So it seems it’s a case of the kettle calling the pot black. US drones have killed thousands of innocent people in Afghanistan, and Pakistan. Several Western politicians from Germany, UK, and the US have spent weeks in the Ukraine encouraging the opposition to rebel against their Government and making false promises.
Russia has reason to feel paranoid with the extension of Nato into its former territories. NATO is very well aware also that Russia won’t be such a soft military target as Iraq or Libya. Nato should have clearly proved to Russia and China that it is sincere regarding its intentions and believes in live-and-let-live and world peace.
