NATO trying to turn Eurasia into its 'fiefdom' - Lavrov

NATO's continued expansion and efforts to turn Eurasia into its "fiefdom" is a matter of serious concern for Moscow, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has said. Speaking at a security conference in Minsk, Belarus, the chief diplomat ridiculed the bloc's insistence that it is a "purely defensive alliance."

According to Lavrov, NATO has been "artificially expanding its zone of responsibility far beyond the Euro-Atlantic region" by hijacking the idea of "the indivisibility of Euro-Atlantic security and the so-called Indo-Pacific region." The bloc's efforts to spread into Asia are being carried out with "the obvious goal of containing China, isolating Russia, and confronting the DPRK [North Korea]," he added

Lavrov noted that NATO has also been spreading its influence to other regions of Eurasia, including the Middle East, the South Caucasus, Central Asia, and South Asia. "Everywhere, they're trying to gain a foothold," Lavrov said, adding that in most cases this influence proves to be "extremely negative" due to the bloc's "aggressive policies."

"A reasonable question arises: if this is the general trend, do we want our entire vast, beautiful continent to be turned into NATO's fiefdom? We cannot agree with this," Lavrov stressed.

The minister also raised concerns over NATO's plans to intensify activities in the Arctic, stressing that Russia, as well as other "sensible countries," would like to see the region as a territory of peace and cooperation.

Responding to continued claims by Western leaders of a supposed threat posed by Moscow, Lavrov reiterated that Russia has no intention of attacking any NATO country and is willing to legally commit to this in future security guarantees.

At the same time, the minister stated that the West is openly preparing for a "new great European war" while EU leaders "proudly" declare that any future security guarantees should be signed "not with Russia's participation, but against Russia."

EU and NATO elites have adopted a policy of isolating anyone who pursues an independent policy based on national interests and common sense, Lavrov claimed, adding that "as a result, there is no prospect of meaningful dialogue with the majority of these elites in Europe."

Comment: For the psychopathic NATO and EU power is their main goal by whatever means necessary. But there are limits that the people of Europe can tolerate before the shit hits the fan. Russia needs only to stand firm and watch the West destroy itself.

Finland ought think about "rescinding" the choice to join NATO - cause if any country knows about Russia - it ought be Finland. Norway be advised to not get invaded again and Sweden - oh Sweden really needs to get a clue.

The arctic area around the Baltic Sea is really the domain of resolute forces I think - and Greenland - who owns that place? Is it Denmark for goodness sake - how did they come to be the owner?

As for the us of a - they really are most confused seems to me....and Alaska - maybe Russia ought take it back for Christ's sake - that way the whole Arctic area would be under their authority - and they got the ice-breakers to explore it - and what does the us of a have?

Seems like nothing but a twice twisted double-talking NY real estate mogul - out of his league.

At the Battle of Gettysburg Union General Newton said to commander General Meade that the enemy had "beaten us unto a position from which we cannot be whipped". This is Russia in the Ukraine.

Ned Ludd - Oh Gracious Ned - I think you got that wrong bout Gettysburg:

At the July 2nd, 1863, council of war at Gettysburg, Major General John Newton, representing the I Corps, initially expressed concern about the battlefield position, stating that Gettysburg was “a bad position” and that “Cemetery Hill was no place to fight a battle in”. However, after a discussion on the risks of retreating, Newton ultimately agreed with the majority and supported remaining on the field, aligning with the decision to stay and fight. His initial assessment was based on the strategic danger of Lee turning the Federal left and isolating the army from its supplies.

Reality is had what his name - the fella with the cavalry done proper scouting then Gettysburg would have been the end of the efforts to stop the south from seceding as the founders said was the "right" of any state.

But whats his name - Jed something I think - Jeb Stuart:

J.E.B. Stuart was the Confederate cavalry leader during the Battle of Gettysburg, commanding the cavalry wing of the Army of Northern Virginia. His absence during the critical early stages of the campaign, as he conducted a controversial ride around the Union Army of the Potomac, left General Robert E. Lee without vital intelligence on Union troop movements and positions. Stuart's cavalry did not arrive at the battlefield until the second day of the battle, July 2, 1863, and was subsequently defeated by Union cavalry under George Custer in a skirmish three miles east of Gettysburg on July 3. This failure to provide reconnaissance is considered one of the most debated aspects of the campaign, contributing significantly to the Confederate defeat.

Well - his galivanting around really sort of lost the battle - and then things got testy - at Little Big Top and elsewhere....and one failure led to another Ned.

So any worthwhile cavalry leader knows "good pussy" is out there, but to seek that out when troops are lining up is the definition of failure - and now here we are.

Ole Jeb really effed it up for the troops from NC, VA, KY, AL, SC, TN, MS, TX - and others - way to go you dipshit. Meanwhile, Lee was suffering from diarrhea, and next thing you know you got Pickets Charge - not a good choice at the moment.

Buffalo_Ken - uh Little Round Top - I been there.

Little Round Top was the site of a critical engagement on July 2, 1863, where Union forces, including the 20th Maine Regiment led by Colonel Joshua Chamberlain, successfully defended the hill against Confederate assaults. Their famous bayonet charge helped secure the Union left flank.

oh man - how stupid the ai is....

Of course had Lee turned the "Federal left"....why gosh almighty the outcome would of been different - thanks for nothing Jeb Stuart - you dipshit loser.

Now rumor I heard at that same "summit" on July 3rd the Union Generals were being petty assholes and ain't that the truth. I mean who was that Yankee out of NY really almost effed it all up?

Here is the answer to that:

Introduction: The 'NY General' at Gettysburg The "New York general" who nearly jeopardized the Union position at the Battle of Gettysburg was Major General Daniel E. Sickles. A controversial and politically powerful figure from New York, Sickles commanded the III Corps of the Army of the Potomac during the battle. His unauthorized decision to move his troops forward on the second day of the battle created a dangerous salient in the Union line—yet, paradoxically, it may have contributed to the Confederate defeat

Sometimes history repeats but usually fools like Sickles screw it all up.....just like Jeb Stewart did when he didn't do his scouting job proper.

Uh - this comment has been edited - after the fact seems to me...but whatever Ned - good scouting is critical in any conflict - and chasing this and that is not worthwhile behavior.

Ned Ludd · 2025-10-30T02:22:02Z

Buffalo_Ken Yeah well here's Gettysburg. General Newton says Meade "They have beaten us into a place we cannot be whipped out of".

So go such eggs buddy.

Buffalo_Ken You don't know the first thing about Sickles at Gettysburg. You are just spouting McClellenite rubbish. Grant and Sherman applauded Sickles interception of Longstreet. Sickles intervention destroyed the entire Confederate battle plan.

“Come into my parlour”, said the spider to the fly.
