I basically agree.
The Russians have local military superiority. We have not militarized, from a NATO perspective, most of the situation in the former Warsaw Pact areas. We have very limited forces. We talk about these battalions that deploy, but they're very modest compared to what the Russians can deploy. In Ukraine, the situation would be far worse. It would be a very dangerous and ill-advised situation. In a sense, a lot of these decisions about NATO expansion were made in a period when Russia was really down for the count and their conventional forces were really in bad shape.
