This is a NATO proxy war in that NATO, an organization created to provide European countries protection from Russia's territorial ambitions, is providing assistance to a European country to help protect them from Russia's territorial ambitions.

Perfectly stated. Definitely sums up NATO's involvement.

Excuse me. I was told there would be a deep state? Are we not doing deep state anymore?

Oh, we'd better be still doing a deep state. The only thing that helped me make it through inflation was the Soros Bucks from all the paid protesting I've been doing.
