Russia has 'right to war' with 'each and every' NATO country - Medvedev - Lemmy.world

“Whether you like it, or not, history is on our side. We will bury you,” he said quoting former USSR leader Nikita Khrushchev. Russian politician Dmitry Medvedev said on Tuesday Russia could have a right to go to war with NATO.

I wonder… does medvedev have enough wits left to understand that if Russia has that right… then everyone … has that right?

They’re finding Ukraine difficult enough. Sure we’re sharing some toys (a lot of toys)… but they don’t have carriers or attack subs or missile destroyers…

Threatening nato is not a sane decision to make. We might just take them at their word.

The toys we’re sharing are our older toys from the 80s and 90s even. Its not even the more deadly stuff we have…and they’re fighting against a force that’s getting a few weeks training on these toys and sent out into the field. If russia truly wants a 72 hour war…all it would need to do is attack NATO.
72? Pretty generous. I’m pretty sure we have more HARM missiles than they do S400 SAM batteries.

It’s not the war, it’s the keeping.

In any case, we’d probably bog down around the same time China and everyone else on that side got involved. I don’t think it would be as clean or as quick. But, yeah. We could definitely screw them pretty harshly without ever landing troops

We don't need to occupy Russia to stop them from continuing a war that they start. We can just destroy their equipment and manufacturing locations to make them surrender.
I was just gonna say, destroy the vodka and cigarettes.
That falls under equipment!
