		ethanwillis on Nov 13, 2024 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Russian family lived alone in the Siberian wildern... Russia never applied. The USSR did 3 quarter of a century ago and was denied. Russia asked when it would be asked to join. It doesn't work like that. Show us where Russia applied to join NATO and got rejected.

Would NATO accept Russia into NATO if it did? Because that would definitely settle the Russia-Ukraine war...

Well instead of applying Russia invaded a sovereign country. So, I guess we won't know will we? Probably something to do with their post soviet inferiority complex.
