Thanks for being pointlessly condescending.

Realpolitik are the reason why I consider the USA and NATO a bunch of hypocrites, altho the USA surely championed the practice.

They fill their mouth with good intents, justice, peace and all that is good in public but act like criminals behind the scenes.

At the very least, countries like Russia and China seem to be much more open about their practicing Realpolitik.

Russia is literally claiming that the Ukraine is run by Nazis. Not that there are people there who see the Nazis as a lesser threat than the Reds, but run by Nazis today.

That's a lie so big it's visible from space.
