Bill Clinton forced the Ukrainians to give up there huge nuclear arsenal in 1993 !

The question is, would this have happen if republicans were in charge. With Obummer there is little threat he will respond with anything stronger than a harshly worded letter followed by an apology.

Kinda reminds me of the old oil commercial, “You can pay me now, or pay me latter”.
