Biden pressured to lead naval operation against Ukraine blockade to avert famine

President Joe Biden's administration has contemplated the lifting of sanctions on Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko’s regime

I've said it before these sanctions have hurt the US and Europe more than Russia and Belarus. The Ruble has recovered and Russia and China both have unlimited supplies of oil, wheat, and many other natural resources.

I'd not be surprised if Lukashenko asked the sanctions not be lifted. They appear to be strengthening their economies.

And as a side note who needs McDonalds. Russia's heath czar is probably glad they are gone.

Shake it off. The fun is about to start!

Russia would consider it an act of war

It would BE an act of war.

Biden pressured to lead naval operation against Ukraine blockade to avert famine

So my question is "What would Reagan do?" or "What did Reagan do?"

Why have a navy if you aren't going to use them?

So Biden is thinking about breaking the Russian naval blockade. Well, somebody has to post it:

LOL! Biden isn’t going to “lead” anything, except maybe the other retards to the short bus.

What a great place for a false flag sinking of a US ship.

What a great place for the sinking of a US Ship under a real flag of Russia. Revenge for Moskva will be sweet. They can pick the ships off as the clear Turkish national waters - or before.

The Black Sea is a trap.

“other members of NATO have a growing interest in a maritime operation to challenge that blockade”

Hail Britannia
Britannia rules the waves…

In a long past world some yearn to recreate, perhaps

[Tench_Coxe]

"..NATO allies regard U.S. naval power as an essential component of the prospective operation.."

In other words.....Europe to US and Russia: "Let's you and him fight".

[Vision]

Washington DC is in a permanent state of insanity and increasingly aggressive.

[AndyJackson]

Hey FTR pilot, we have an air force and a Naval Air arm. Why don't you and your friends go and sink the Russian Naval Forces supposedly blockading Odessa? Just one question - how are you planning on getting there?

[HYPOCRACY]

China’s starving. Don’t kid yourself.

[Thunder90]

We should do the same for Taiwan. Also make China’s two carriers have an “accident”.

[Alas Babylon!]

Will Turkey allow transit of US or UK naval vessels through the Dardanelles for this purpose?

[Leaning Right]

According to this article from 2019, Britain has more admirals than operational warships. So I suppose Britain could at least win a gold braid contest against Russia.

[Alas Babylon!]

The death of American boys on American ships would not be “sweet”.

Are we on Free Republic or DU?

[Thunder90]

Maybe the people but the Chinese Communist Party and PLA have all the food they could get. Same goes for the Soviets. And even North Korea is getting foodstuffs.

NATO wants expanded war. The first Marshall Plan make European socialism possible. I am no fan of war yet some small part of me can see European capital cities and major US cities reduced to a smoldering mass as they force Russia to unleash the promised response. We being NATO were warned. F Joe Biden.
