    Or just attack Russia regardless of them claiming you’re not allowed to?

    America isn’t pushing the button, they’re just doing the usual thing of selling weapons.

    It’s Russia’s fault they’re in this thing. They went full border war using their own citizens - when under Pax Americana you’re only supposed to do proxy wars in places not near you.

    Russia has been doing that in Africa, their mistake has been doing it with their own guys on their own border.

      When having a proxy war it’s always a good idea to ensure that you are the side with the proxy. Otherwise it’s just a war for you.

      Russia isn’t fighting a proxy war with NATO, NATO is fighting proxy war with Russia though.

        Its not even exactly a proxy war this time, we don’t fund them behind the curtains we directly and openly support them and they are basically at our border. So in reality i would say that Nato does border defense with some help.
