In 1991, Mikhail Gorbachev dissolved the USSR and ended its Warsaw Pact, upon a promise from the regime of US President George Herbert Walker Bush to the then-Soviet (soon-to-become merely Russian) leader, that NATO would move "not one inch to the east" - a promise which the American President told his people in private was actually a lie, but which they, and all subsequent US Presidents, have accepted as Western policy founded on that lie, by expanding NATO not merely "one inch to the east", but right up to Russia's very borders. That's what this February 2nd policy by US President Barack Obama and his NATO stooges is bringing substantially closer to culmination.
