To be clear, the stance of Marxists in general is that if NATO didn’t exist, the conditions for the war would not exist either. You likely aren’t going to find many Marxist-aligned orgs that are pro-NATO.
PSL is taking the standard Marxist stance on NATO, in that it is a millitary alliance of Imperialists that puts pressure on enemies of its members to intimidate into concessions. It isn’t about appealing to Putin, there’s nothing to gain from that.
Also worth remembering that Lenin wanted Russia to lose ww1 (ie lose to a literal dictator) - having a critical stance against the military activities of your own government is not sucking up to a dictator which your own capitalist government has decided to make an enemy

Ah, yeah that seems logical, the link is tankie.tube after all …
Such a shame, them sucking up to a dictator, how is it that it always ends up like that?
Dude if you want to be a socialist you cant be pro nato as well. Nato’s entire raison d’être is to protect capitalism.
