Ukrainians have skin in the game. They're still down to fight for their territory.

what countries are capable of blunting this not including the US?


Good question. Not many that I can think of. Poland had a significant military now. It has got to be a very short list.

But we aren’t arguing that… it’s a given that European countries don’t have the might to fight Russia individually.

That’s why NATO was formed as a coalition, so that one country didn’t have to do it alone.

Would love to see the USA pull out of NATO and the UN immediately after the meeting with Russia and China.


NATO exists because the USA wanted NATO. It was created on April 4, 1949, in Washington, D.C.

It’s in Putin’s best interest to try to convince the USA that they don’t benefit from NATO.

Bringing in Xi to help convince Trump. Because Xi dominates Trump in negotiations.

Trump needs to stay away from this negotiation. All Putin has to do is admit failure and withdraw from the occupied territory.
