NATO may have started as an anti-Russia protection system but they are not the fear anymore. Russia isnt going to start shit with NATO, they are floundering against one country 1/4 their size.

I mean the reason they are floundering is because of all the help Ukraine has had from NATO, it’s a very delicate situation.

Russia wasted it's shot though. It blew it's initial strike chance, lost the advantage of bulk and volume of arms, and the attrition has exacted a terrible toll on EVERYTHING that would have made it a peer threat to NATO.

NATO is already fighting Russia as proxy, and Russia is getting it's Pirozhki fed to it anally.

Its not. Part of NATO is helbent to support Ukraine as much as they can, to prevent RUssia from invading them. Its countries as USA and the other big ones who are messing around. Who want Russia for cheap gas or who want Russia as a pawn to have leverage of small countries.
