Russkies are to Ukrainians what Orcs are to Elves in the Lord of the Rings movies. Trying to claim that Russia has the right to topple Ukraine because of a long distant relationship-- since destroyed by Russian genocide on Ukraine (7 million Ukrainians starved to death, rivaling the holocaust), is stupidity.
As for "the USA has no interest." Yes, we do have an interest if a large, nuclear armed country with a totalitarian government starts conquering countries.
Romulus should be able to annex Vulcan, they are basically the same people after all....
I don’t buy it either
I didn't make that claim, you ascribed it to me of your own volition.
" Yes, we do have an interest if a large, nuclear armed country with a totalitarian government starts conquering countries." - Could you not assign that same logic to Boko Harum? ISIS? What does nukes have to do with it?
I suggest we have an interest ONLY where we have a strategic cultural or commercial interest. Especially when we risk tripping an existential war with a nation at nuclear parity.
