Why didn't Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus join the European Union?

Why did the USA have to help with European security issues for the last
105 years?

As I've said before: The next time you Eurofucks start a world war, you'll
be on your own. Twice in the last century we had to come over and put an end
to world wars that YOU started. Sure, we'll loan you all the money and send
you all the materiel you need to duke it out, but "boots on the ground"?
FORGET IT! This time we'll just stand back and let the corpses fall where
they may, which is what we should have done a hundred years ago...

Russia did far more to put a stop to World War 2 than the USA. In both
wars, it took attacks on your shipping and military bases before you
decided to enter the fray. Of course, in your mind, your late entry
somehow magically erases the three or four years of fighting before you
decided to get out of bed.

You'll do whatever your ruling elite tells you to. That's where all
your talk of freedom always ends.

And had it not been for Lend-Lease, Oleg and his ilk would be speaking
German. And they KNOW it:

Yeah, Oleg, keep that in mind the next time you see footage of Marshal
Zhukov being driven around in a U.S.-made Willys jeep:

It is a little more complicated than that, but it does show how a the
disruption of the established balance of power can blow up into a major
confrontation. The US can not be blamed for it for having gotten involved
because the didn't do anything until the last few months. They merely
tipped the balance. They had done pretty well for themselves and their
aspirations of becoming recognized as a world power by sitting back and
letting the Europeans duke it out.

Had the U.S. become involved in 1915, say, after the sinking of the
Lusitania, it would have been DISASTROUS for Britain, because all the war
materiel we'd been shipping overseas would instead be hoarded for use by our
own troops when they arrived "over there." Winston Churchill HAD to have
known that...
