    There is a growing sentiment within the Biden administration, for example, that its interests would be better served by pressuring Zelensky to sue for peace, rather than persisting with a military campaign he stands little chance of winning.

    I seriously doubt this.

      Yeah, it is most definitely in the US/NATO’s best interests to continue supporting Ukraine against russia, as the longer the conflict continues, the more severely russia cripples itself against any future conflicts. It’s already an impossibility for russia to feasibly launch a successful offensive against any NATO nation at this point.

      Why the hell would we stop supporting Ukraine when that serves to further our own interests and further weaken our greatest enemy?

      That is, unless you’re a compromised republican/MAGA moron… (Hope it’s clear I’m not referring to the user above me here.)

        Because some of the individuals in the executive branch are on Putins payroll.

                I don’t think the guy was talking about Biden. Did the US vote those idiots who did a trip to Moscow on the 4th of July out of office yet?

                  If they meant those individuals, fair enough. Seemed like a whataboutism towards Biden to me tho.

                  That’s the legislative branch, not executive. And yes, I’d say it applies to each of the “freedom caucus” morons.

                  Ah, guess I’m too conditioned by the rampant whataboutism nowadays.

      As you should. There’s not a court in the world that could take this case. That growing sentiment is pure disinformation
