Why did Russia invade Ukraine?


Because Putin wanted to.

There's some complicated stuff about rebuilding the past and destroying democracy, etc. But basically, Putin wanted to. So he did.


Putin also saw the weakness of the Euro west. The weakness of the Biden administration. Putin saw the opportunity and seized it.


Is it through a Republican organization that so many Republicans repeat the same word to describe Biden? Seems like a message was sent out to use the word “weak” as much as possible when it comes to Biden. Anyone know who is behind coordinating these messages? I find it fascinating how they get implanted into people’s brains and then restated repeatedly.


Yes.

Thinking and recognizing hypocrisy is not their strong suit.


It’s straight from Putin. Trump and the republicans just do what they are told. Weak is the word of the week. Monday usually mean a new word or phrasing from Fox.


Look back over the last year. We have been calling Biden weak all along. Nothing new here. And, we saw this demonstrated pretty clearly with the Afghanistan withdrawal.
We call him weak because that is frankly what he is.



Because you are parroting the words of a traitor.

Biden and the West are putting Putin where he belongs. Question is if he'll bring Trump down with him.

Boy, did he f**k up. Turns out Biden and the West weren't weak at all. Bullies always mistake civility and deliberation for weakness.


Exactly.

Yes republicans and Russia call him weak. The evacuation of Afghanistan was success carried out by the US military. I do not understand people like you hoping and praying for US failure. MAGA/republicans = hate of US. I wonder when this hate translate to actual taking action against the US?

Except it turns out he was wrong. The EU, Biden Administration and Ukraine weren't and aren't weak. So that just makes him stupid.


Come on man. The escalation only came after Putin went beyond the two regions that are pro-Russian. If he would have just stopped there, the western world would not have done much else. It took an immense amount of international pressure for these leaders to come around to increasing the sanctions to include meaningful ones like SWIFT. Not just Putin, but most leaders thought that Ukraine would lose quickly and decisively against a Russian invasion. Thanks for the bravery and valor of Ukrainians, this did not happen. In this context, the EU took their sweet ass time deciding whether it was worth it to go against Russia and pay higher energy prices, and only came around to it after it became apparent that Ukraine was putting up a good fight and it became difficult to look themselves in the mirror.

Pathetic.


Please explain to me how it should have gone differently. Diplomacy is a back and forth. A sovereign nation must be able to defend itself and Ukraine is not a NATO member. Russia taking on Ukraine is 1:1 because of that. If NATO countries directly got involved OR proceed to the strictest sanctions from the get it would be like using all of our missiles- but that doesnt mean the invaders stop AND it would be an escalation. Russia is not attacking any EU country nor the US- directly anyways. Its a threat absolutely but response to a threat must be measured or you can end up provoking a bully to act (initially or further) because youve embarrassed them or in essence, put gasoline on a smoldering fire.

Other countries needed to see whether Ukraine was actually willing to protect itself or it would turn into another Afghanistan- where another country is doing the fighting on behalf of another. The citizens of a country need to WANT to defend their sovereignty beyond stating it, it needs to be actionable.

Afghanistan’s fall had nothing to do with weakness on Biden’s part. It happened because Bush 43 screwed up the formation of a government. Had Afghanistan’s popular and unassuming former King Zahir Shah been reinstalled with presidential powers, with the warlords co-opted as senators and a democratically elected House of Representatives along with democratically elected local officials Afghanistan might have worked. Instead, we gave the former king the stupid title “Father of the Nation,” reinstalled him in the palace but gave him no powers. Instead, we attempted to build an American democracy for which Afghanistan was not ready and led to leadership by corrupt Presidents chosen by fraudulent elections. The Afghan people had no confidence in their corrupt government which allowed the Taliban to infiltrate.

Biden managed to unite the EU, strengthen NATO and bring Switzerland out of neutrality. All without saber rattling towards Russia. He handled it flawlessly.

How did such a weakling beat Trump? Trump, by definition, MUST be weaker than Biden. But then logic isn’t your thing so this will fly right over your head.


Because Biden hid in the basement and the press gave him a pass. Trump lost to the phantom Biden of days long past and the press sung his praises forever.

If the current doddering Biden who can't even get through an entire sentence without taking a nap had ever been on the campaign trail, it would have been lights out.

The current Biden who has flawlessly navigated the most complicated and delicate foreign policy crisis since WW2? The guy who has united the world, reinvigorated our alliances, and humiliated Putin? The guy who has made America great again?

They should have listened to Biden 12 years ago on foreign policy.
His administration has done a great job. Maybe we wouldn’t be here if he had taken the lead back then.

Biden is a war hawk that has gotten it consistently wrong, BUT the good news is that it appears Mr. Blinken has learned from his mistakes. So far the US has played it very elegantly.
