The FACT the Soviets stood down is because we approached them from a position of strength, while keeping the interactions from exploding into war. That is the difference between a civilized country and one lead by the KGB thug Putin.

We’ll see who’s ‘in a position of strength’ soon enough, Ukraine or Russia.

Begging other countries to get into the fight we fanned the flames on is hardly a show of strength. Bet you think Biden going to Caracas to beg for oil is a sign of strength too?
