You soud like a real professional, you should lead a nation or two.
I at least know how NATO fundamentally functions before popping off about it online.
So if you are so well educated, why do you think we are not sending troops? Please enlighten me with your knowledge.
Because no one actually believes Russia has ambitions outside of Ukraine. And if they actually do believe that and don’t want to send their own troops in, it’s absolutely shameful and cynical to be using Ukrainians as their human shields.
So when putin said in his speech that he wants to take back ex-soviet states, he wasnt talking seriously? And when he sayed he will drop nukes if nato troops enter Ukraine, he was joking? And why use Ukraine as human shields if we could give them more weapons so they wouldnt die?
He literally said the opposite of that.

But if he can’t be trusted and he’s coming for the Baltics, then you should be enlisting and pressuring the Baltic states to deploy.
Instead you’re letting Ukraine do the dirty work or you don’t actually believe this.
The entire war has been an escalating game of nuclear chicken for NATO anyway. If Europe is under imminent Russian threat, then you can’t be deterred by the threat of nukes. Otherwise you should just let Russia march through to Paris.
Sending weapons so Ukraine so they can defend themselves is logical. Sending weapons so they can defend YOU is shameful.
