Well, since Russia isn't in NATO we wouldn't defend Russia.

They have very a very “tense” relationship with Russia. Joining NATO could theoretically give them the backing they feel they need to increase those tensions.

Uhh, no. You're making the same mistake as Trump, except that he's POTUS and should fricking know better.

NATO is a defensive alliance. Neither the US nor any other member nation would have to enter into a conflict instigated by another member nation.

You missed the last section of my post. I’m just explaining the reason for the statement.

Again, so what? NATO is a DEFENSIVE alliance. If Montenegro initiates an armed conflict with Russia, neither the US nor any other NATO member is obligated to get involved.

This is your statement. Not Trump's...yours, correct?

"Although they’re a tiny country, they could drag the world to war, if war were there intentions, as NATO countries are obligated to defend each other. "

It is factually incorrect. If any conflict broke out because of hostility on their part, NATO members could use that as justification to stay out.

I think I worded it wrong. That is trump’s reasoning for it. I paraphrased it, but it was taken from his statements.

Run with that vermin.

Good God, political discourse is absolutely shite because leftists are God damned children.

Why the frick should we defend Montenegro? Obligating us to is stupid.

I get it now...It was a leading anti-nato question by Carlson, who is acting like a nit wit Libertarian. Rand Paul move over, you've got company on the crazy couch.

Only if a NATO Nation is attacked. Otherwise, they're on their own.
