And I can tell you with confidence that despite that
anyone believing Putin's propaganda is still a dupe.

I can smell propaganda from miles away. And the stench of it coming from NATO Russia-haters, and their puppet states is overwhelming.

I’m talking about the Cuban missile crisis of 1962. Why would nowadays Russia accept something on its borders, so hostile to its security, what the US wouldn’t back then?

I’ve never said Cuba was a NATO member. What happened back then was exactly the same as Ukraine nowadays inviting NATO on its borders with Russia.

None of which as hostile as Ukraine, and perhaps within Russian tolerance range. I can’t speak for them. And why would that make a precedent justifying further NATO encroachments?

The invasion of Ukraine shows that Russia does not accept the threat on their borders.

[Mazdatruck]

Will Finland be invaded next?

I'd call that hostile towards Russia.

The US invaded Cuba because they did not accept the threat of Russia becoming friends with Cuba.

This is the same threat NATO poses to Russia by allowing NATO into Ukraine.

Was the US wrong to invade Cuba?

Was Russia wrong to defend itself after the failed (illegal) US invasion, by placing nukes in Cuba?

??? DID SOVIETS INVADE A NATO MEMBER IN 1962 ? NO

AND WHAT WAS THE US RESPONSE ? None, no NATO member was invaded.

The Cuban missle crissis was about NUCLEAR MISSILES being put in Cuba by the Soviet Union.

Did someone put MUCLEAR MISSILES in Ukraine ? NO
