. . .
Trump has been especially hard on Ukraine - "the deal"
involving them legally/morally ceding lots of territory,
including Crimea, to Russia forever and ever. Pressure
has been high.
Alas the past week or so ... it's become very clear
that Putin does NOT want any deals, even sweetened
deals. He wants CONQUEST, no less.
The problem isn't really Ukraine at all.
So, looks like the USA isn't gonna try to deal
anymore. Pointless. Only PAIN will register
with Vlad.
Directly and indirectly, it's time to make sure
Ukraine has new weapons - extra bad-ass weapons -
the kind that can hit Russian troops and distant
infrastructure and HURT. Don't ADMIT it, don't
care how it's printed in the books, just make
sure it HAPPENS.
