The US's position is really just : "let Russia bomb you and continue to invade your territory while doing nothing to stop them or we'll consider you're not willing to negotiate"
@Suki You seem to deeply misunderstand how the world works. Ukraine is a democracy with its own leaders, the US doesn't decide who leads the country. Europe continues to stand with Ukraine
As the anniversary of #Russia's imperialist aggression against #Ukraine looms, I argue that #Europe can either intervene now and defeat Russia, or face a much more dangerous Russia in the future, and the prospect of a devastating war in the #eu
Our current geopolitical situation suddenly makes a lot more sense when you stop considering the US as a country which has just accidentally elected a fascist, and instead consider it as a country where tech oligarchs and Russia have collaborated to successfully game the elections, and are now dismantling checks and balances.
The US is now well on the way to becoming an oligarchic puppet state of Russia... #USpol
@amszmidt What worries me more is we are going to wait until the war is over, and russia has regained its strength and is ready to attack us again, rather than fight and defeat them now.

There is no point in deluding ourselves, #Russia is coming for us next. We must enter the war in #Ukraine now and comprehensively defeat them while we still can.
I started 2024 in a bomb shelter near Kyiv, where I drafted my thoughts about our collective failure to support #Ukraine. In the article, I asserted we were already at war with #Russia, and that a direct attack by Russia on the #EU was inevitable.
I ended the article by floating the idea that our support had come too little too late, and that we may need to intervene militarily in Ukraine.โฌ๏ธ
Europe now has two choices: we can let Trump make a botched deal, allow Russia to effectively annex Ukrainian territory, and prepare for a war we may lose in 2 - 5 years, or we can enter the war in #Ukraine, and comprehensively defeat #Russia now.
We have strong regulation in the #EU, and built 2744 km of #highspeedrail in 10 years. Our network is now 8556 km long. In the same period, the US built 0 km of High-Speed Rail.

Or we could intervene now, decimate Russia, Free Ukraine in its entirety, and probably collapse Putin's regime, effectively eliminating Russia as a threat for the foreseeable future.
