The belt of neutral states that created a buffer region between NATO and the Warsaw Pact during the Cold War was an important part of the European security system. After the Cold War, neutrality was gradually abandoned due to a unipolar distribution of power and a complementary liberal ideology that undermined the case for neutrality. The efforts to end Ukraine’s neutrality to pull it into NATO’s orbit, predictably triggered a war. Instead of learning the right lessons, the response to the war has been to further dismantle neutrality from Scandinavia to Moldova, which will predictably also trigger a security competition in these regions.

I think it's time to think new. I dont think I'm the first to think that Nato sound dissolve and that the US should leve Europe militarely. Why could'nt Europe inclusive Russia become good match and friends. I don't know if Russia represents a threat to Europe? Is it? Whithout USA I can't see any reason for immidiate tension. We could work together for our best interest. I don't have anything against americans, only their foreign politics
Mr Diesen has his finger on the pulse Of the Wests strategy in Eastern Europe and Scandinavia NATO Frightened Stupid Scandinavian Leaders into Joining this Unholy Alliance by using their War in Ukraine as an opportunity for blaming the Russian Government. Every Person with an open Mind knows NATO THE USA🇺🇸 AND THE UK sank the Near Completed Peace talks in Istanbul Turkey just to Meet their own goals and it Worked A Treat “LIARS ALWAYS WIN AND CHEATERS NEVER LOSE” The Governments of the USA and the UK knew Zelenskyy was open To Corruption and the offer of Billions and Billions of Dollars and Pounds and Shitloads of Weaponry would sway him away from the Talks and into a War His Nation had no chance of Winning. Russia China North Korea India Vietnam have Nothing to DO with any Troubles or WARS Since 9/11 Americans and the Idiotic Leaders of the UK have went Batshit Crazy seeing Terrorists everywhere then Decided to Send Sovereign Arab Nations and their Populations into the Stone Age. What happened in New York that Dreadful Day was Horrendous an act of Evil and insanity that did exactly what it was intended to do Drag America and the UK into a Money Eating Never Ending Conflict with All involved Suffering Directly and the suffering has been inflicted upon a huge number of Arab Nations and Populations and the POOR Populations of America and the UK and Immigrants suffering abuse and Hatred. I would ask all you in not so much America but definitely the UK to think back and remember when the Immigration floodgates opened It Was Blair and his Despicable Corrupt Lying Gangsters with their illegal WARS. This was the Age of mass Immigration into the UK this is not the fault of the Immigrants this is all down to the Billionaire Class lobbyists handing out hundreds of Massive Brown Envelopes stuffed with more Cash than any Working Class Person could earn GROSS in two lifetimes to get our MPs to whip up reasons like we must have Immigration White British People won’t do the menial Jobs. Bollocks the Billionaires Wanted Mass Immigration to “KEEP OUR WAGES LOW” but the on a hiding to nothing Immigrants not the Corrupt Politicians and Billionaires Got The BLAME. It has been every single Government since Ted Heath and most of them Millionaires or Billionaires who deliberately overcrowded our Cities Towns and Villages and deliberately Creating intolerable pressure on The NHS inclusive Transport and JOBS. Our NHS the most important thing we have excepting our Right to A Decent LIFE to be Provided by the People We Trust and give our Fair Share of Money to but since 1984 every Government has SOLD SOLD SOLD everything which belonged to the Public Purse except the NHS, now this Life or Death Facility has been starved of the Money We PAY To make it Work for all. This Money has been siphoned off and Misused by Corrupt Politicians and Corrupt Private Health Insurance Corporations. So You Thick As Pig Shit People who Voted this lot into Power Get it SORTED OUT it’s not The Elderly the Disabled the Unemployed the Homeless or the Immigrants To Blame For the Problems created by Incompetent Dysfunctional Governments Worldwide CORRUPTION IS AT THE CORE and We The People have to VOTE to End this Madness.
