An attack on Poland would be considered an attack on the Baltics, Czechia and Slovakia. I think that deal is already made regardless of any US or NATO response. |
I doubt China, Japan, S. Korea, Germany, France, England, Australia, Taiwan, etc etc etc would agree with you. All the countries that feel the way you feel are run by kleptocracies. That is why you only have scraps. |
you have it wrong. Russia has no place in the Ukraine. If Putin would just accept being the extremely wealthy oligarch that he is, thousands of people wouldlnt' have to die. |
The Ukrainian constitution is not a bilateral peace accord with the enemy, nor is it etched in stone. Don't be so obtuse. |
Belovezh accords; Budapest memorandum; and the Treaty on Friendship, Cooperation, and Partnership between Ukraine and the Russian Federation signed in 1997 were |
Historically speaking, Russia has more place in Ukraine than the US has in all of Europe. Putin's wealth is a non-issue. |
Always look at the money. Always. From whom did he grab all that money? |
Ukraine refused to renew the treaty in 2018. The treaty expired in 2019. The Belovezh accord is not a peace treaty. It declared the dissolution of the USSR. It has nothing to do with the conflict. |
Well, by that logic Spain, France and the UK have more place in the American continent than the current US, Canada, Mexico and all the other countries. Turkey has more place in balkans than the EU and Italy and Turkey could pretty much divide back the Middle East and Europe. Being occupied by an empire at some point in time, does not give the said empire “more place” in any independent nation or people. |
How does the manner in which Putin acquired his wealth have any bearing on his invasion of Ukraine? |
AFTER russia invaded Ukraine in 2014, annexed crimea and occupied part of Ukraine’s territory. Yes, by 2018 pretending that russia is abiding by that treaty was pretty meaningless. |
How did he get it all? |
Luckily putin and his cronies grabbed the money from what seems every single sector possible, including the military. A peace agreement just gives them the time they need to stop stealing from the military and rebuild it to wage another invasion either in Ukraine or on a different country. |
P.s. this should give the world an insight on extent to which abides by international agreements. Interesting what other agreements is it signatory to that it could unilaterally disregard? |
