While NATO has Russia completely surrounded by military bases, and has moved right into Eastern Europe, in violation of post-Cold War agreements, enlisting the support of roof-top snipers and Neo Nazis to slaughter civilians in the Ukraine.

A post war agreement that those outside Russia suggest was never agreed.
Invasion of Ukraine.
Invasion of Georgia.
Bully tactics to Baltic states and Sweden.
Great neighbour to have.
Yes, it was agreed, but silly Russians for believing anything that came out of a Bush's mouth (Papa Bush in this instance).
Russia did not invade the Ukraine. There was an American-backed coup, removal of a pro-Moscow government and installation of a corrupt pro-Western oligarch, Neo Nazis and others attacked ethnic Russians, burning many alive, leading the ethnic Russian majority in Crimea to vote overwhelmingly in favor of a return to Russia.
The invasion of Georgia was in response to a Georgian invasion of Ossetia, killing hundreds of civilians as they lay sleeping in their beds. Ossetians are not even ethnic Russians, but speakers of a Farsi dialect.
