  1. Why did Clinton break the promise with Russia not to make any former soviet block countries NATO after the breakup of the Soviet Union?

  2. Well let’s face it, NATO is a little outdated as a name. Back when NATO was formed there really wasn’t a country outside the North Atlantic area that even needed to be considered. Except maybe Russia.
    Things have changed now. The UN is worthless, leaving countries to fend for themselves in the event of an aggressor – ala Ukraine.
    Time for a new name.

    • Ukraine is not part of NATO. NATO is a defensive pact among members.
