A journalist should know that an “enclave” means a portion of a state that shares no border with the rest of that state. You’ll hear about “separatist enclaves” because separatists frequently have strongholds that are isolated from one another. Separatists in Donetsk and Luhansk control geographically united territories that border each other and even Russia.

Ukraine is not part of NATO. There is no obligation on the part of NATO or the US to defend them.
If one feels the US should fight authoritarian tyranny to defend freedom and democracy then we should liberate Canada

Think of Luhansk and Donetsk as Quebec and New Brunswick wanting independence from Trudeau and aligning with the US.

The US might send troops there to support them if Trudeau continues his dictatorial abuse of Canadian citizens.

Europe has been splintered for over a century.

Many people were forced to be under one flag when their hearts were with another.

A true leader would negotiate that Luhansk and Donetsk deserve their independence and Ukraine and Russia must stop interfering in their affairs. A true leader would negotiate that no troops from Ukraine or Russia should ever step foot in these new nations.

Then let the UN hold the peace.

That is what I would do.

But Putin out-maneuvered Biden and will keep troops in Luhansk and Donetsk permanently, just as he is doing in Belarus. Further territory will be taken by Russia so they have a land bridge to Crimea.

That is Putin’s goal here and he is achieving it a little at a time. The West, under weak leaders like Obama and Biden, keep giving in to Putin.

Putin denies he seeks to recreate the Soviet Union. He lies.

Could be. But did NATO mislead if they agreed to not expand into the Baltic states? Just asking, as the available info is contradictory, incomplete, and not being further investigated.

I believe it is easier to spot a globalist/establishment Republican by their attitude towards Putin.

It is not a 100% accurate litmus test, but pretty close.

Interesting. I never knew about the RUBK thing.

It makes sense about Kazakhstan. That happens to be where the Baikonur Launch Complex for the entire Russian space program is. As it stands, the Russians have to launch their rockets and cosmonauts from a foreign country.

“...”Russia, plus Ukraine, plus Belarus, plus Kazakhstan is a geo-strategic formula for a global power re-born.”..”

And that’s been more less the goal since the USSR collapsed. Nail back together 400 years of past Russian imperial effort.

Our retaliation should be swift and decisive... we should immediately start shipping the more than 30 million invaders illegally occupying our country to Ukraine and Russia.

ClownHall, an extension of the democrap party that keeps beating the war drums to invade Russia to distract from their failed domestic policies.

This guy hasn’t got a clue of what is happening in the region. He’s just another cabal mind farmed dupe. First historically borders come and borders go. Second the Ukraine is a hot bed of corruption and has been used by the EU/NWO and the US/NWO to threaten Russia/non NWO for years. Those two separatist states don’t want to be with the Ukraine. They identify Russian.

Russia may be more of an oligarchy than a democracy but its not communist anymore. Putin is not the enemy. He’s not Baba Yaga. He’s not a threat to the US. Hes a threat to the belligerent cabal force that’s currently occupying our nation’s capital but my guess is that Putin is working with Trump to bring down the NWO.

Notice Trump’s remarks of humorous praise over the move to recognize the two breakaway regions. What’s really interesting is the lack of blowback. I fully expected to hear the hysterical screeching today that see Trump is colluding with Russia. But its not really happening. Fascinating!

This is all unfortunate for the people of Ukraine, and even for the people of Russia who don't want any part of taking over another country.

But what seems to be missing from our government is a clear and rational explanation of why this should matter to the people of the United States, and why we should be willing to pay several dollars more for a gallon of gas that is already higher than it needs to be. They wrecked out economy for COVID when we didn't have to, and now they are trying to wreck it again for the people of Ukraine. This is madness.

Hitler used the same excuse - protecting ethnic Germans - at least four times.

In late 1938 he advanced into the Sudetenland, which was the German speaking region of the new country of Czechoslovakia, which had been created after the First World War.

In 1939, Hitler would attack Poland to protect the Germans in the free city of Danzig.

Earlier in the 1930s, Hitler had seized a German speaking province between France and Germany, and he also occupied Austria, which had voted to merge with Germany in a plebiscite.

Both Russia and Ukraine need to pull back from this fight:
1. Russia needs to quit while it is ahead. It’s allies are few and are not in a position to help.
2. The Ukraine will go down the toilet if it allies with socialist and LGBT westerners.

It’s laughable that there’s still people who believe Ukraine is an actual country.
