The West might well have been kinder to Mother Russia

On this day, September 12, 1990 the two German States and the Four Powers, the Soviet Union, United Kingdom, France and the United States signed in Moscow the Treaty of the Final Settlement with Respect to German Unification.

Significant that it was signed in Moscow.

Had the West been more magnanimous to the then government in Moscow might the world be a far safer and more secure place today? Most likely yes.

Was it not agreed in those days that Nato troops would not go east of the new Federal German frontier?

The West has not got clean hands when it comes to how it has teated Mother Russia.
