PUTIN & US could afford a lot of things if we began to trust each other. RUSSIA HAS NEVER ATTACKED AMERICA & have no reason to start now. OBAMA & HILLARY BILL THE BUSHES have stuck thier thumbs in RUSSIAS eye for decades and they haven't attacked the US.
Who ever inks a treaty with RUSSIA, either US or China. Will dictate wich way the world goes. If Russia was to joined NATO China is neutralized. IF they signed with CHINA EU & US is finished
If you think about it real hard, If Russia joined NATO it would just about guarantee WORLD PEACE. Europe would no longer need to worry about russain attack niether would the US. A Union of the 2 biggest NUKE nation's would neutralize Chiina; IF WE DON'T DO IT THE WORLD WILL CONTINUE TO START WARS.
