    Which country has over 800 external military bases again?

    By comparison, all other countries combined have less than 20.

      This is exactly what I mean. America’s overseas bases do not justify invading Ukraine. If anything Russia is making every Eastern European country that already has those bases feel like having them is beneficial.

        Ohh I see now, the US doesn’t have enough bases then in your opinion, and countries need to beg them to build and expand more.

          ahh yeah that’s literally exactly what I said, thanks. Why bother commenting that? I did not even slightly imply that America’s overseas bases were a good thing. I said that they don’t justify invading Ukraine and that Russia is making its neighbours want American bases.
