The problem is that you never try to understand what forces Russia to act the way they do. Those dudes have a big paranoia with NATO and this is were everything starts. NATO is an alliance created with the purpose of containing and confronting Russia. NATO has been expanding and keeps expanding right on their borders which makes them even more concerned. Can you try to put yourself in their place? I bet you would be paranoid as well. Everything starts from that, everything and no one seems to understand it.
You need to stay for a sec and THINK.
-When are the Russians presenting aggressive behavior?
-->When NATO threatens to move more closely to their borders and when their population or ally is getting abused.
Does that make them a bad country or illogical? Do you see them invade and bomb random countries just like the Americans are doing at the moment? I think everyone would defend their geopolitical interests and their population security as they are doing. Do you remember how well our relations were with them prior to Ukraine? Prior to that coup?
Listen dude, Russia could be and should be Europe's biggest ally. They are right next door, they have unlimited natural resources and they have common goals as us. What makes them bad and USA / UK / France not who bomb 10 fold and are in a almost constant state of war / conflict, not?
Our relations need to be restored because its in the interest of everyone.
