Sorry, can you show me where the Russians have actually threatened to invade eastern Europe since 1991?
Ummm ... isn't Ukraine in eastern Europe? So, since at least 2014 they have done more than threaten.
I can show you one fairly well-known example.
I actually do get Russia having a violent response against a hostile alliance coming up right to their borders. That side of it makes sense to me. But also, NATO and EU membership was much less of a priority for Ukraine before Russia started invading their borders and killing their citizens. Once Russia has rolled their military into neighboring sovereign nations and started killing and raping and blowing up homes, I think they're forfeited their right to whine about the unfairness if their neighbors decide to join a mutual-defense alliance that can beat the shit out of them.
Russia did invade parts of Eastern Europe in 2008, then again in 2014, then again in 2022...
Haha you adding that disclaimer "since 1991" is the funniest thing. Russia losing their occupation of Poland does not undo anything that happened before. But here are some examples for you to completely ignore:

I'm sure you'll manage to find more if you care.
So why do you believe that Russia's selfimposed fear of invasion is not a paranoid delusion?
Oh of we're just talking about random senators or TV personalities then yeah Russia has lots of people that want to restore the Soviet union. I meant from people at their MOF or MOD, or in the presidents office, people who's threats would carry weight beyond playing to domestic politics.
It's cute that you try to talk it down but prominent figures in Russia are talking about invading Europe, murdering its people and eradicating cities.
And no one West of the Russian border cares one bit about moving the Russian border even a meter eastwards. The claim that Nato is a threat to Russia is a sad lie it tells itself to justify its imperialism.
You seem to be ignoring your talking heads vs the Russian ones..
What am I ignoring? That it's a complete waste of time engaging with you because you never acknowledge that you are a liar?
It's hard to spell it out for you more clearly. There are plenty of people in the US and Europe advocating for the break up of Russia.
You still have not provided any proof for the idiotic claim that anyone wants to threatens Russia. It remains a fantasy to justify Russian imperialism, nothing more. Just like a bot you only spew more and more of your BS hoping anything would stick without ever acknowledging that you have been called out for your lies.
Doubt this will keep you from being a useful idiot: https://www.eurasiareview.com/03112022-washingtons-plan-to-break-up-russia-oped/
Are you trying to rebrand useful idiot to no longer mean dumbasses who repeat Moscows fairytales 😂? That'll be as successfull as Russia claiming it did not start WW2 together with the Nazis to eat up Poland.
Also your link is a fictional opinion piece by some "journalist". The comment below the article gives a great summary:
So still no one in the West threatening Russian territorial integrity. (Because no one gives a shit about that crap land, all we ever wanted was to just buy your resources and let it be)
Your chauvanism is showing 🤡
I think you don't even know what that word means. And you just keep running in circles, ignoring reality.
Ahh logical fallacies. Always the backup when someone loses an argument.
Bro there is no argument where fallacies could have taken place. You never engaged in one and stuck to spreading your lies.
Just a bit of education for you. When engaging in a discussion with someone, like you replying to my comments and me to you (that's a discussion), attacking the individual instead of the argument is called an Ad Hominem attack. Look it up. You've already lost your position and my respect, I'm just trying to help you out here.
You ignoring any arguments that don't align with your worldview while not providing any yourself is not a discussion. Also note that I don't care about the respect of a Russia apologist - to me you are just as pathetic as the nazis running around these days. Your "position" was lost from the start but you really cannot see it - or just don't want to.
😭🤡
