    This is what happens when you promise you’d protect a country if they gave up their nukes, and then you don’t protect that country when they get invaded.

      Ukraine had no way of using those nukes, and maybe we shouldn’t let unstable countries that can’t protect themselves from a coup have nukes.

        Sure, but don’t make promises if you’re not gonna keep them. I’m all for nonproliferation, and I see the failure to help defend Ukraine to be a big problem in when convincing other countries they don’t need nukes.

    Countries need to build their own nukes to defend themselves from American and Israeli belligerence. Meanwhile, the peaceful Chinese are investing in humanity, and bridging the divide. If Ukraine had a nuke, Russia would not have invaded, but the US government is incompetent in running the planet. Ukraine today is no exception. Putin will be remembered in Russian history, while Joe Biden will be forgotten as just another bad US president who has no wits about him. Putin is an impressive man, Biden is an unimpressive man. Putin is a character in history. Biden is a historic nothing. Is it any wonder that Putin is defeating Joe Biden in Ukraine? Not surprising to me, totally expected for those who know better. This is what happens when you run a kakistocracy.

      Funny, seeing as they gave up their nukes in exchange for certain countries respecting their territory. Certain countries like Russia, who currently has the second strongest army in the entirety of Russia!

      By the way I AM SCARED, WHY DO DRONES KEEP EXPLODING IN RUSSIA? WHAT IS AIR DEFENSE DOING IVAN?
