They do not have nukes, because we decided along with Russia and the UK to disarm them in exchange for a promise to respect Ukraine’s territory and national sovereignty within its existing borders.

That treaty is called the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, and obviously Russia has been stepping all over it. So now, as a co-signer of that treaty, what do we do?

Check-mate! Obozo just made the West look like a bunch of wussies.

These freakin liberals. Now, look for other hot spots to heat up around the world. Tyrants and despots love to dog pile when a weak opponent is down.

Not a treaty; never submitted not approved by the Senate, so its legal standing is unclear.

That so called "Treaty" was never presented to either the US Senate or the Russian Duma for ratification, much less ratified.

A bunch of drunks drew up a deal on the back of a bar napkin and the lawyers for the big dogs rejected it.

The US is not committed to protect the territorial integrity of Ukraine, thank god.

Nukes for a nation are a lot like guns for an individual.

Never, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never, Never surrender them.
