      That’s unfortunately exactly the case. Europeans forgot. Pro-Putin populists and nazis are on the rise in many European countries.

      Oh we remember our history very clearly. We are currently in the most peaceful period of our continent since its colonization. And we clearly need that peace because the last wars on this continent were more bloodier and deathly than the ones before.

      If Europe decides to return to ye old days there won’t just be a litte squabble at the edges - WW3 will happen! Don’t you realize that?

      Would you have your own country’s military deploy in Ukraine? Would you, personally, go help Ukrainians fight the Russian invaders? This ain’t age of empires. In the real world, nobody wants to go to war. This is why in a democracy, elected leaders might hesitate whereas dictators don’t really mind spending a few thousand lives to make a point.

          When did the eu invade afganistan?

          You know, us helping you in your pointless little wars (your welcome by the way)were very unpopular governmental decisions here? Multiple govs failed in multiple countries for doing so!

          And yes! We should draw the line at ukraine! Wanna take a fucking gander at why? Maybe, and this is going to be a wild guess so hold my hand, because of Russia’s nuclear armada capable of destroying the entirety of earth?
