2 days agoI am going to guess that it was just simply inconceivable. They assumed that NATO members would resolve their disputes through other institutions (UN, EU parliament, WTO, etc). That was the whole point of these institutions, to make resolving disputes able to be done without war.
We obviously all know it was a sham but it’s quite funny to have the sham ripped apart to reveal the true power dynamics underneath
