Denmark's Mette Frederiksen said "everything would stop" in the event of a US attack on another NATO country. European leaders have backed Frederiksen while saying the US "is an essential partner."

    Would be one of the most internationally positive outcomes of 2026 if NATO dissolves.

        The global south. NATO is the millitary alliance of the world’s imperialist powers, a destruction of millitary unity among imperialists would severely weaken imperialism. NATO is “defensive” in the same way the Iron Dome is, it gives imperialist countries free reign to treat the world like something to be looted and plundered without fear of genuine blowback.

          I’m sure Ukraine, the Baltic trio and Poland agree with you.

          Edit: shit, so many opinions of me based on a less than 15 word comment. I’m sure y’all are fun at parties.

            Considering they are aligned with the west, who plunder the world’s wealth through export of capital and unequal exchange, that’s not really surprising. Opposition to NATO is pretty basic among anti-imperialists and the global south in general.

            Yeah but the opinions of pro-Apartheid colonialist sympathizers are nothing but noise contaminated with hitler particles.

            Nato is an imperialist alliance that was created to fight imperalist USSR. Many of the funding countries was still colonizing other countries when it was created. Nato also destroyed Lybia which is the clearest example of it not being just a defensive alliance. Nato also collaborate with Israel who hold the longest current occupation, again has nothing to do with Europe protection.

            The US could leave Nato today, attack a Nato country and Nato will do nothing about it

              One major correction, the USSR was anti-imperialist, which is why the imperialists collaborated to oppose them. Their colonies were in danger of liberation due to the soviets aiding anti-imperialist movements.

                If the USSR was anti-imperialist it wouldn’t have been involved in Afghanistan

                edit: Imperialism : a policy of extending a country’s power and influence through diplomacy or military force.

                It was imperialism since the goal was to spread socialism to other countries and I have no issues with socialism.

                  That’s not what socialists mean by imperialism, by that vibes-based definition defeating Nazi Germany was “imperialism.” Imperialism is instead a form of international exploitation characterized by dominance of monopoly finance capital, export of capital, and super-exploiting the global south for super profits. Spreading socialism is anti-imperialist.

                    It’s not what anyone means by imperialism. If “extending your influence through diplomacy” is imperialism, then there isn’t a non imperialistic country out there

                  Imperialism : a policy of extending a country’s power and influence through diplomacy or military force.

                  I think it should be self evident why that definition is bullshit
