And nobody says Trump should be nice to him. But because of a border squabble between Russia and Ukraine, now the United States cannot negotiate with Russia on things like nuclear weapons etc. You know, things that actually are American interests. And that was my point, apparently we cannot pursue American interest regarding Russia, unless Ukraine is in a happy condition with them.
“But because of a border squabble between Russia and Ukraine”
Pardon, but China and India are having a border squabble.
Russia INVADED Ukraine and then stole and annexed part of their country and is right now moving up five armored divisions to go seize more of Ukraine. This is not a squabble it is a war of conquest.
There can be no making deals with a country that can’t respect international borders and Russia has demonstrated repeatedly that they will invade whatever they want.
