We have no obligation to get involved
***We have a gigantic MORAL obligation, written right into the treaty we signed: in order to get nuclear nonproliferation right. Otherwise every tinhorn dictator in Africa will acquire nukes. It was the right thing to take those nukes off their hands, so it’s the right thing to honor that agreement. Don’t you CARE about nuclear nonproliferation?

in this fracas between Cyrillic speaking cousins.
***We signed the agreement. We are obligated to “respect” borders and sovereignty as they were in 1994. You don’t mind being a country that no one else can trust, a country of betrayal. You’re the one who’s a hooot here.

Oh, can I mention that I had a TS/SCI clearance too?
***Then you would know how important nuclear nonproliferation is. That’s how I know that this kind of assertion of yours is pure bullshiite.

Cyrillic is the alphabet letters and not the spoken language so it is not kosher to call them “Cyrillic speakers”. My wife is a Ukranian Russian speaker and her accent when speaking English is “thick enough to cut with a knife” (as Jack Benny described his Dad’s Yiddish accent).

Little Slovakia is sending Migs, the Czechs are sending and repairing tanks, Brits are sending weapons (I don’t remember the specifics!) as are others, even Turkey is selling them armed drones. Easy for the ex-Warsaw Pact nations to get rid of old inventories, now they can buy western made arms.

By which you mean you don't like it but it's the truth.
