For Xmas goodwill, will the EU, NATO and the USA apologise to Russia?

The majority of people think that the west has been too aggressive against Russia.

Mr Putin is only doing what is right after an illegal coup in Ukraine. Russia is only trying to promote peace, but has faced aggressive action from the west.

Will people like Cameron and Obama admit they are wrong and as a Xmas goodwill gesture apologise to Russia and compensate them for any money lost due to sanctions? Perhaps NATO could give the Russians access to the North coast of Turkey to allow for Russian Black sea military bases? That would also help Russia send supplies across Turkey to help Mr Assad.

    I agree. There has been a misunderstanding on behalf of the west.

    I mean the west has made a few mistakes in the last decade, such as invading Iraq, attacking Libya etc.

    The best thing to do would be for US and EU to apologise and compensate Russia. Putin is protecting Russian citizens in Ukraine who are being attacked by neo nazi militias.

    Perhaps the west will start working with Russia one day. I know of many youths in places like Czech and Slovak, etc who would rather their countries quit the EU and had closer ties with Slavic Russia.

    Apologize? Never. They want to get Russian influence out of the Baltic states and Ukraine, so they can grab the resources there. Russia has cooperated with NATO all these years since 1991. The U.S. should show Russia some good will after Russia helped train Afghani army.

    Russia has bases on the Black Sea, why would they need Turkey's permission. Russia has no problem getting supplies into Syria to help Assad, or use ships. NATO is America's military wing in Europe.

    Oh, Putin's been talking about he retains his nuclear option lol like wtf does that even mean anyway? No, Russia began with good intentions and action was justified but they went too far and they forgot the original mandate, now they want the whole eastern part of Ukraine.

    There's a proper leadership in place now in Ukraine, they were voted in, leave them to sort it out and go back to Russia, there's no reason for Russia to still be hanging around, withdraw and go home.

    Enough!

    When the world reserve currency finally changes from the dollar the americans will get a taste of their own medicine and actions like this against Russia will only serve to speed this process up!

    No reason to. Conservatives, just like you, love Putin.

    If by " majority of people", you mean, "majority of people paid by the Russian government to spread their lies" (like your boy Flower, there)...your statement is true.
