The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

Despite the military alliance's slow-paced accession process, Ukraine has quickly built a NATO-ready military within 14 months of being ruthlessly attacked by Russia. The purpose of NATO is to defend the West against geopolitical threats, so quickly accepting Kyiv into its ranks should be a no-brainer. Whatever qualms certain countries may have with Ukraine, they can be dealt with once all rule-abiding nations have joined together under one banner.

Newsweek

Establishment-critical narrative

Hungary isn't the only one against NATO expansion and its deadly consequences, and the proof is in the thousands of protesters — and even some politicians — taking to the streets and speaking out against NATO and the US. Greeks, Germans, and Britons, among others, know this is a US proxy war against Moscow, and they don't want their husbands, wives, and children to shed blood over these political games.
