Ukraine should have emulated Switzerland. Instead it’s a used car dealership.
***They emulated South Africa and gave up their nukes for “assurances”.

So now there are 2 countries in the world which gave up their nukes and lost their sovereignty.
They’re not the only ones to find disappointment at the (nonbinding) promises of a Dem politician (Clinton in the 1994 case). How come all the neocons in congress back then didn’t propose a treaty if it was such a great idea?
Ukraine spent their money buying U.S. politicians. They should have bought lessons from a Constitutional scholar instead.
