Baltics have been in this alliance since 2004. What danger did that prove to pose to Russia?
Ukraine and all other post-Soviet countries rushed into NATO after being invaded, pillaged, and raped repeatedly by Russians for decades or centuries. You think this is comparable to Mexico/US? Russian aggression is a top reason for NATO’s growth, e.g. now thanks to the genius “special military operation”, Sweden and Finland joined and the border Russia shares with NATO doubled.
Those Baltic countries are further away from Moscow than Ukraine.
Besides, the US has a long, documented history of triggering regime change in foreign countries and installing leaders who serve their interests. They also have invaded countless counties, but I guess it’s only bad when Russia does it?
That wasn’t responsive to anything I said. You think the difference in range between Latvia to Moscow and Ukraine to Moscow is actually a factor? That range? In the 21st Century? Against the whole of NATO? Keep stretching.
only bad when Russia does it?
You’re the only one here carrying water for invaders mate. I don’t see the US invading and annexing territories.
Oh really? Were you not born yet when the US invaded Afghanistan & Iraq? Have you been closing your eyes when it has been bombing Lybia, Syria, Yemen & others?
I’m not carrying water for invaders by the way. I just don’t like hypocrites who deem Russia the devil and give a pass to The West while they are literally being an accomplice of genocide right now in Gaza.
My point was the difference in distance between Ukraine and Latvia (~150-200km). No it doesn’t matter and you won’t find any respected analyst who would argue otherwise.

What territory was annexed? Were those just for imperialist conquest? Do you really think the reasoning behind all those conflicts are equal to Russia’s poor excuses for bullying neighbors? Do you have any more non-analogous examples that don’t force you to go back 20+ years? Because Russia has many more recent and current examples of actual imperial conquest.
I do not struggle with reading comprehension but I’m starting to struggle with your condescending tone.
Large portions of the West Bank have been annexed by Israel with the blessing of the West.
Besides, the fact the US didn’t annex territories and merely wreaked havoc in the region is really not the slam dunk you think it is; In terms of casualties the West surpasses Russia by a landslide.

Yes, the distance to Moscow matters.
