        US is literally building their own bases there. That’s the definition of being colonized. You’re just happy they’re getting colonized by the right people because you’re racist.

          You deduce that I’m racist based on one single post that indicates that they may want to avoid future attacks from Russia?

            There was no potential for any attacks from Russia, and no reason for Russia to attack these countries. So yes, your premise of Asiatic hordes invading Europe further underscores my point.

              Asia was never brought up in the conversation. Unsure why you feel the need to misrepresent my words.

                  Those articles are archaic. Very strange to assume that everyone will have seen those and then use them as a vehicle of attack.

              Just like Georgia, Ukraine and now Moldova I guess… Also Russia is slavic, not asian. It’s also pretty racist to lump all of Asia as one culture or ethnicity.

              New Defense Agreement Gives US Access to Several Military Areas in Finnish Lapland

              It will give American forces access to 15 military bases and exercise areas on Finnish soil. Five of these are in Lapland, Northern Finland.

        That’s what happens to idiots who think that US has their interests at heard and will protect them. In case you still haven’t figured it out, it doesn’t end well.

          So far has stopped Russia. If it’s a rock that keeps the tigers away, that seems like a rock worth having. Could also bash them with the rock if Russia comes invading, I suppose. Not like it takes something away from independent defence.
