We just see the same events from different perspectives and that is perfectly fine, no need for any apologies. The reaction to me seems perfectly defensive because if the unthinkable happens and there is a war between NATO and Russia there will be need for armored units on the front line (hint: the country I live in will be part of the front lines). In case of that war the only thing that needs to happen to cut the land route to the Baltic states is for Kaliningrad oblast to be linked up with Belarus, to stop that from happening immediately there will be need for heavier units on the groud ready to respons with some speed. Ofcourse that is just one of the reasons.
I really hope that it does not come to this, I'd much rather start a family and live in peace than be forced to take up arms, but that is beyond my control.
