Sorry for the headline. I don’t know why they don’t just say it’s Vivek Ramaswamy.

To that end, I will accept Russian control of the occupied territories and pledge to block Ukraine’s candidacy for NATO in exchange for Russia exiting its military alliance with China. I will end sanctions and bring Russia back into the world market. In this way, I will elevate Russia as a strategic check on China’s designs in East Asia.

    I don’t get why he thinks Russia would end a military alliance after being given everything they want without having to end that alliance. And what makes him think other nations won’t still back Ukraine? We would just be putting ourselves on the wrong side of history and on the wrong side of the war.

      History is for nerds. Paying attention to how appeasement turned out for the world back in the mid-20th century won’t get you airtime.

      That’s the weirdest thing about this. His whole plan assumes Ukraine will just say “Ok Vivek, we’ll just stop fighting because you want to be friends with Putin!”

      Only thing he’d accomplish is making the war drag on for years longer. This guy is so gullible he believes the Russian propaganda that tells him that Ukraine is a US puppet.
