Hey, when pootypoot engaged in his “special military exercise” he OBVIOUSLY did not violate that agreement, so we are just as free to obviously not violate it in the same way with ‘special military exercise’ that actually DOES “respect the borders” per the agreement.
So buzz off.
I’m just pointing out what the Budapest Memorandum says and doesn’t say, and provided a link to the memo. Russia violated the agreement, not the US. Clearly, Putin is the bad guy here. He violated his agreement, invaded a sovereign nation, is murdering their people and destroying their cities, and will likely steal their resources and leave behind a humanitarian disaster if he isn’t stopped. There are moral and geopolitical arguments to be made for defending Ukraine against Russia, and who should/shouldn’t do it.
