"the collapse of the Soviet Union made NATO's purpose less clear. In fact, in 1990, as the Cold War drew to a close, President Mikhail Gorbachev proposed the Soviet Union join NATO. At the time, Gorbachev was negotiating German reunification with the then U.S. Secretary of State James Baker. "You say that NATO is not directed against us," he said, referring to the rival Warsaw Pact, an alliance between the Soviet Union and Communist countries in Eastern Europe, "that it is simply a security structure that is adapting to new realities. Therefore, we propose to join NATO."
Baker reportedly dismissed the proposal as a 'dream' but it has been floated several times since. Giving Russia membership would have required NATO, which turned 70 on Thursday, to fundamentally redefine itself."
Yes, even Mr Putin tried, that arch villain.

« Last post by yor_on on Today at 07:36:17 »The golden age of Western imperialism and geopolitical conquests are over. Directly connected to our industrial revolution. It could have happened anywhere, that 'revolution', well, not really. For example, temperatures matters, but theoretically we could assume it to happen anywhere, with very similar consequences. Other nation's conquering ours.
We can't accept it though.
