Of course they are. They want to control Russia. That's what is causing tension. Russia is a sovereign nation. If the EU wants to bully them, it's bad news. I prefer that sanctions lift and that tensions reduce, so the west has a better relationship with Russia. That way, Russia can learn from our openness and care-free progressive nature, and evolve from their somewhat antiquated ways of conquest. The best way to win them over is by working more closely with them and building a good relationship. That way we can actually have a positive infulence on them and vice-versa. Then again, in my book the US has done much more harm in foreign policy and conquest than Russia has, especially in ruining the middle-east. It somewhat affects me personally because I am half middle-eastern and it affects my everyday life, because people sometimes look at me and think "TERRORIST!!!!" (think Harold and Kumar lol). You'll ask "how do you know what they're thinking?" Well because sometimes they end up verbalizing it... I have stories. |
When you are supporting Trump who uses the blatant anti-Muslim rhetoric, you have no right to complain.
