NATO had long been loosing its main altruistic goal. There is no place globally where NATO show itself to stabilize the situation but rather to improve destruction impacts.

News Item “Russia expands unfriendly countries list” ! This is insane and extreme madness ! After all, the world is not in the 18th or 19th centuries but in the 21st century. Geopolitics have changed and enlightened foreign policy and relations do not have friendly or unfriendly countries so to speak. One country could be friendly for a time and become unfriendly within a short period. The enlightened countries manage their foreign relations accordingly by trying to friendly to all neighbors and the other countries in the world. The Bismark or Tallyrand way of doing things do not apply in the present century as the world marches towards digitization, bitcoin AI and a plethora of other scientific innovations. Foreign policy as set out in “The Prince” by Niccolo Machiavelli or Kautilya’s “Arthashastra” (Economics) have no bearing in today’s world other than being for rhetoric. Does old Poot…. think of himself as Czar Put-in line with Peter the Great or wants to be compared to Catherine the Great. If that is the case old Poot., has another ‘think’ coming his way. It appears old Poot’s thinking is quite primeval, primordial and primitive and this ‘maddo’ does not understand the modern world and is obsessed with raw, unchecked power without any consideration for other human beings including his own countrymen. What are the deep sleepers in the Duma doing. Do they want to join “Armageddon” in the company of “Comrade” Put-in or be more civilized in their behavior towards the rest of the humanity including their own countrymen whose welfare should be their concern not Put-in’s ever increasing destructive “power hunger”.
