balancing the interests of Russia and the West, while also being part of the West, is no longer morally or politically tenable
NATO is no ‘the west’ and vice versa.
I would just like to add that politico is part of Axel Springer SE and therefore trash.
Austria is required by its constitution to be neutral. This neutrality was forced on them by the Soviet union, which isn’t around any more, but there is currently no political will to change this.
Exactly zero people studied history in this channel. It explains a lot.
TIL Austria is not in NATO.
