Biden is now 'planning to deploy just 1,000 troops to Eastern Europe' after putting 8,500 on standby: President is trying to form 'coalition of the willing' with NATO allies to round on Putin as he threatens to invade Ukraine

When I read the headline I thought it said destroy instead of deploy

Exactly.
WE need to concede this to the Sov, er, Russians. This looks too much like an invasion.

"coalition of the willing"

Rumsfeld said the Iraq war would take 5 months in 2002.

But does NATO want Ukraine as a member?

NATO for decades was 1 sugar daddy and a buncha dwarphans. NATO did basically what the US wanted. It asked those kinds of questions when Turkey wanted to join.

Now, NATO is probably full of wokesters who wouldn’t know the historical lessons of Sudentenland if it bit them in the backside.

The situation is probably where the answer to your question looks like a Bidenesque yes-no-maybe-It’sTrump’sFaultIfItGoesWrong.
