Firstly, absolutely nobody in this comment chain said Russia was at war with NATO.
Second, it’s Russia that started invading independent foreign countries in this recent conflict, of course Russia’s neighbours and their allies aren’t going to reduce their spending, they don’t want to risk being invaded or threatened.
Third, it is true that they haven’t really tried to deescalate the situation, but I don’t see how they could unless Russia accepts to entirely leave all of Ukraine’s territory, which Russia is unwilling to do. There can be no compromise here, anything else would make Russia the imperialist state…
