hero worship?, grow up, and stop acting like a kid,Putin is a first class bas$$$d but a clever one, you obviously do not wish to see the reality on the ground...who is going to help and protect the Ukranians? Who...
The EU has practically no army, sanctions from them are not going to cut it.....and they are dependent for energy from Russia and they back down like rabbits in headlights and doesn’t Russia know it.
Nato is no way at this point going to get involved. Not a chance.
The US? You have people saying here the US should not get involved and then in the next breath saying arm them, well that’s getting involved folks. Pick one or the other, its either get involved or don’t.
What exactly has the world done in the last few months.....in case you have not noticed,Sanctions, yeah they really worked, Russia is already in Ukraine, its soldiers are over the border and convoys going in daily.
The reality is The EU are not going to help, The US is not going to overtly help and eventually and most likely Ukraine will fall back under Russian influence.
That is not appeasement, that is reality.
What do you expect or wish is going to happen in Ukraine because all i hear is bull and no answers.
Now they buzz Latvia
NATO has a massive military force which includes the United States, you think your man is really wanting to do what the massive Soviet military couldn’t do, defeat the West?
Your hero worship is premature, and your fears as well, we need to stop this little punk’s empire building before your and Obama’s appeasement creates a real threat to the world.
Ukraine has every right to join the EU and NATO if invited. If they don't because they are afraid of Russia, that's appeasement.
My point isn't that they should or should not appease the Russians. They may or may not have any choice. My only point is that we should call a spade a spade.
The reality is that you are advising appeasement.
