As Czechoslovakia was outside of England’s at the Munich pact of 1938.

I don’t know whether Ukraine should be in NATO or not, but things were better without 30,000 Russian troops there. Period, as you say.

Thus Ukraine once again becomes a vassal of Russia, part of its union. It also allows Party of Regions and the Communist Party of Ukraine back into legal standing, and outlaws Right Sector amd Swoboda. Bet it also puts Ukraine back into the CSTO.

Putin gets this and it is the same as invading.

Then it’s a Euro problem, not ours.

I guess Ukraine is no longer considering joining NATO. Makes sense. Now.

If this is true, and what I said above this post is true, it is the equivalent of undoing the Euromadian, and restoring Yakunovitch to power. It would essentially give Ukraine to Putin and Communists.

I think that’s a bit dramatic.

This is true. But the underlying lesson is that bullying pays.

Especially against weaklings.

And Biden is weak. One can only wonder what will come next.

No one in his or her right mind wants Ukraine or Georgia in NATO.

“Trump, never once, advocated for Ukraine to join NATO.

And no way he would have agreed.”

And that could be the reason why vindman got his pink panties all in a wad.

So that means whatever money Ukraine would have been contributing toward their NATO membership, will now go directly to the Biden Crime Family. Joe’s got to get his cut.

It's 100% the reason.

“Putin gets this and it is the same as invading.”

That he always had it was never in dispute by any thinking person.

Allowing the scumbag Russians to invade and occupy Ukraine is not going to stop those pricks from invading and occupying Ukraine.

But leave it to the Russians to think anyone is stupid enough to see this crap as being generous.

We should have dropped out of NATO when the EU took over the European Vassal States.

How about the thieving Russians just fix their own country instead of stealing Ukraine?

Ukraine’s ambassador to Britain has [said] that his country might contemplate withdrawing its objective of joining NATO

Russia is contemplating withdrawing Ukraine from the family of nations.
