Invading another country is hardly defending itself.

The sanctions were initiated before the invasion. The Russians were quite clear that Ukraine must never be a NATO member. Nobody listened, bunch of hypocritical aggressors.

NATO invaded Ukraine before the Russians did. We are witnessing the counter-attack.

And they do not get to make that order.

We need a timeline. I recall some Washington fools demanding ' pre-emptive sanctions '

We cannot back down on this point, because if we do we will definitely lose in the end.

That's what you tell yourself to disguise your innate bloody-mindedness.
