Further, choosing now to bicker between NATO allies rather than projecting a united front towards Putin would only embolden him, not the other way around. A strategic genius you are not, good God.
There needs to be a genuine and credible threat to Putin that we NATO will defend whoever the fuck we want whenever the fuck we want. Otherwise he's going to roll in there and annex the portion east of the western edge of the Black Sea to enhance his access to warm water ports.

Yeah didnt suggest Germany send in a carrier group or any of that, but continue to work with Germany to take a stronger position and commitment. I think right now talks are with France and maybe England with Russia currently.
I happened to pull up a map with Russian troop positions in Belarus; that poses quite the problem for Ukraine. Not only is the border with Russia a front, but most of the north. Belarus says Russian troops gonna leave in a couple months after their “training”. I dont know what could be done, but expelling those troops from Belarus…if any nato allies would have influence, that seems top of mind. Probably wishful thinking
