What makes Ukraine our "ally"? With Galicia and Volhynia back where they belong, the rest of the Russian region known as "Ukraine" can reintegrate with the Motherland.

Ukraine is a democracy invaded by its authoritarian neighbor Russia.

Ukrainians have no wish to "reintegrate"or more accurately to be subjugated by Putin.

Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians gather on Kyiv's Independence Square to Oppose Closer Ties to Russia("Maidan Nezalezhnosti') in December 2013.

Did Stalin or did he not take Austrian Galicia and the Volhynia by force from Poland in 1945 and integrate them into the USSR?

Yes, of course those people want to rejoin Europe, I don’t blame them one bit, and if they negotiate a deal or fight Russia and win they can get what they want.

Other than that, it’s none of our concern.

And as far as protecting “democracy” - give me a call when Brennan, Comey, McCabe, Jarrett, Susan Rice and Obama are indicted.
