If Chinnnnn-a wanted to join with Mexico I'm sure the US would have something to say...After the Canadian election the US will have Chinnnnnn-a on its northern border,
NATO doesn't need Ukraine to exist and if it was that contentious just don't have them as part of NATO.
I'm aware that Russia asked to be part of NATO... it was during the time that Russia failed back in the 90's. I argued that they should have let them in...
My reasons are simple.... Pay the 2% fee and if you want to be part of the team you have to play by the rules... Get along with your neighbors play nicely in the sand box.
BUT they didn't allow them in... Because the rest of the world needed a boogeyman to scare their population into compliance.
And here we are today in 2025 where people are scoffing those who are trying to broker a piece deal.

Most people don't care anymore... If that's a hill you want to die on, so be it. If a few more 100K people need to die for what you believe... I guess you can have at it.
The US needs to focus on it's own right now. It's citizens need to know that their leaders care. Thank God for Donald Trump because he's put America 1st and he's trying to broker a Piece Deal when no others are trying.

AG> Trump is an idiot, his knowledge of the Geopolitics is ZERO.

He's smart... we're talking in numbers that no one has ever seen before... and he'll more than likely get the deal and in doing so will save 100s of Billions of dollars... million of lives and the Ukrainian people can start to rebuild its lives.
