But they still can't join NATO tho.
For a very good reason. Nobody wants to edge world war 3.
@Maggoty @nullPointer Fear of a 3rd world war plays into the hand of russian propaganda. Russia is geographically the world largest country. Economically they are the size of Italy.
Is Italy a superpower? No. Neither is Russia.
And Russia will never start atomic warfare against multiple NATO nuclear powers.
NATO members just shy away from getting into direct conflict. If they wouldn't, Russia would be dead.
Or can you imagine Italy winning a world war?
Sure. Are you willing to bet everyone's lives on that?
Yes.
Okay. We're never letting you close to a position of authority.
