Doc Posted January 21, 2022 Posted January 21, 2022 And Biden didn't give money to Ukraine unless/until they fired Shokin. Which they did. They did not, however, investigate Joey and Hunter. When they absolutely should have.

So says he...he loved Putin and sold out others. He also loved North Korea and that went no where Rodman did more.
Niagara Bill Posted January 21, 2022 Posted January 21, 2022 2 hours ago, Doc said: If the US wanted to take over Canada (why, I don't know?), Russia and China also couldn't do a damn thing to stop them. But it's a worldwide problem, not just the US's. For sure Russia has eyes on North Canada, but first an island in the Baltic belonging to Sweden is next on the list. The last 2 presidents, Obama and trump hurt world solidarity. Putin pushed this, Obama yapped and did nothing, trump hugged him and Putin continues on. Biden is over his head.

He did nothing under Trump. Think that was a coincidence? He merely waited for the next Dem President. 1
Niagara Bill Posted January 21, 2022 Posted January 21, 2022 Just now, Doc said: He did nothing under Trump. Think that was a coincidence? He merely waited for the next Dem President. Some truth to this statement, trump was a wild card that he waited for him to leave is a real possibility. There will be another Cuban type crisis...with damaged relationships between US and France, Britain, Germany, Canada, Australia, Poland and others getting co-ordinated response will be difficult, and the US people gave no appetite to singularly help Ukraine or Sweden etc

We'll see how this policy works. 1

There will be another Cuban type crisis...with damaged relationships between US and France, Britain, Germany, Canada, Australia, Poland and others getting co-ordinated response will be difficult, and the US people gave no appetite to singularly help Ukraine or Sweden etc Russian intelligence concluded that Trump was unpredictable and therefore dangerous. It wasn't so much what he would or wouldn't do but rather they couldn't play out the U.S. reaction to their actions with him in charge. So they hesitated to take any action. The Biden administration is very predictable and officials like Blinken are well known. Under Biden the U.S. will provide assistance but has already shown their hand by stating they will take no direct action or commit combat forces if hostilities break out. Biden has also taken expulsion from SWIFT off the table. With the two things Russia fears removed from the equation he's more or less signaled the U.S. will take no actions that Russia has any fear or concern over. Given this all of the European countries will take no direct action because they assess the U.S. will abandon them and hang them out to dry if there is an escalation. Also, most countries see economic integration with Russia as beneficial to their long-term interests and a European centric strategy that benefits their interests instead of benefiting the U.S. Putin knows all of this. While the U.S. might welcome a proxy war against Russia that would tie up their forces and distract them from other interests in places like the Middle East I don't understand why anyone thinks Russia has any interest in Ukraine other than protecting their access to the Black Sea and keeping NATO and US forces out of Ukraine and off their border. Occupying the country is not a goal as it's a financial drain and financial disaster and in need of constant aid from external benefactors. I see the idea of an invasion as a media talking point and negotiating tactic more than a likely outcome. The most likely outcome is the situation slowly de-escalates and disappears from the headlines. 1

Don't see money as concern, Russia has little concern for citizens, many of which work in Russia. The small island jn the Baltic may be the real push. One thing for sure, Biden is out of his league, and the US is not prepared. 1

GETTOTHE50 Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 What a terrible administration. US families are now advised to leave Ukraine as we are now gearing up to defend Ukraine from Russia. We are going to get the war the corporations and politicians want now. Congrats on voting this dolt in you stupid, stupid libs. 1
B-Man Posted January 22, 2022 Posted January 22, 2022 Good Lord. There is no speaking to Biden. You speak to his handlers. That does not fly with world leaders. German chancellor turned down Biden invite to discuss Ukraine crisis - Der Spiegel German Chancellor Olaf Scholz turned down an invite from U.S. President Joe Biden to discuss the Ukraine crisis, German magazine Der Spiegel said on Friday. Scholz did not accept the invitation due to a full schedule, including a trip to Madrid, as well as the desire to show that he was present as Germany grapples with the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Der Spiegel. A government spokesman declined to comment on the report. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/german-chancellor-turned-down-biden-invite-discuss-ukraine-crisis-der-spiegel-2022-01-21/
