If you compare number of wars Russia vs USA did post WW2, you know the aggressor. Why do NATO need to expand that too till borders of Russia n China. Is it just protection or suppression in plan? Where were we when there were so many wars againt people in Asia by US? And now we want to point against India or China not acting against Russia. Why should they do it? Even now countries like Yemen etc are suffering. But do we have sanctions against Saudis? No. Instead we still trade with them and US even sells weapons. So why should China or India care about what's happening in Ukraine.

USA doing well economically when Europe suffers not just in Ukraine. But we don't want to ack that. Why do people can't acknowledge that? We Europeans are doomed in couple of years. Took in lot of migrants and also dancing on tunes of USA.

Bad assumptions and comparables. Why would you compare "number of wars" and why would you arbitrarily stop that comparison at WW2? Other problem is just being in a war doesn't make it unjust, Korea is a good example. I'd actually challenge you to list out post-WW2 wars (actual troops on the ground) if you want to try to make this a point. We should include during WW2 as well since Russia joined up with Nazi Germany to invade Poland, Finland, and other countries or would it be convenient to forget about that?

Second you have a faulty premise re: "why do NATO need to expand". NATO doesn't need to expand, and whether it's at the borders of Russia or China isn't really relevant. NATO expansion that has occurred where it does border Russia (NATO doesn't expand or border China so already you're showing either a lack of geopolitical knowledge or you are just spewing propaganda) has been at the behest of those countries which seek to partner with NATO to provide security guarantees. Russia has invaded them in the past, the US has not. End of story there. Easiest way for Russia to not be "worried" about NATO is to stop being worried about it. Americans and Europeans don't really want to engage in war in Europe, and especially not with Russia since there isn't anything to gain.

> And now we want to point against India or China not acting against Russia.

Mainly because Russia engaged in an aggressive war against Ukraine, but if you're going to accuse some countries of trying to win economically against Russia then you have to include all countries that want to win economically against Russia, and that includes China and India who are more than happy to pay low rates for Russian oil and gas. If they cared about Russia they'd seek to stop the war so sanctions are lifted and Russians can enjoy a better standard of living and both China and India could return to paying 2x-3x prices for Russian oil so Russians can profit. Instead they want cheap oil.

> Even now countries like Yemen etc are suffering. But do we have sanctions against Saudis? No. Instead we still trade with them and US even sells weapons.

And China and India buy Russian oil while they engage in an aggressive war. Bad logic on your part. Not to mention other issues such as genocide against Uighur Muslims in China's own borders.

> USA doing well economically when Europe suffers not just in Ukraine. But we don't want to ack that. Why do people can't acknowledge that? We Europeans are doomed in couple of years. Took in lot of migrants and also dancing on tunes of USA.

US has been doing well economically regardless of whether or not Europe "suffers". If you hold that the Europe is doomed and just dancing to the tune of the USA then there isn't anything you can do, you have no agency, and you should stop caring and just try and enjoy your life.

Or you can accept that the world is much more complicated than what you are suggesting, and maybe Europe wouldn't be doing so bad (as you say) if it wasn't on the receiving end of a wonton and stupid Russian war to satisfy some butthurt dictator's imperial ambitions. Whoops.
