LOL, if Trump was President he would not only fly to the Ukraine in AF1 but he'd also do a flyby of the Russian border and personally shoot the finger to Putin.will25u said:Vladimir Putin doesn’t want me to be President.

It's farther than Germany, but a 2nd major asset in the region would be advantageous.

We have no business being involved in Ukraine.
Russia is metaphysically in the wrong, as they usually are, but we are not omnipotent and should not seek to right wrongs that don't concern us.
The traditional early American republic's foreign policy of avoiding entanglements overseas while carrying a big stick on our side of the world, e.g. Monroe Doctrine, remains as a sound and wise a strategy today as it was 200 years ago.
War is a last resort, we have no vital interest in who rules in Kyiv... for the vast majority of the time since 1776 since the United States has existed, Kyiv has been ruled from Moscow. That is tough luck for Ukrainians but America is a finite republic with its own interests and territory, not the neocon's idea of an open air walmart whose military power can be wielded as a sword in the interests of others.
Cuba exists within the Monroe Doctrine sphere, and if they ever again threaten our safety it would be worthwhile and legitimate use of force to wipe out the Cuban regime and install something more friendly and benign down there, regardless of whether that ends up being a dictatorship or a democracy.
From 2018:HumpitPuryear said:Yep it's winter and they get their gas from Russia. Trump was right again. Germany will be sitting this one out.P.U.T.U said:
You have to remember German has a contract with Russia for their gas/oil so it is unlikely they will help unless things really get bad.

Yes and no, applying centuries old tactics to a doctrine in a day and age of free flow instant communication and global e-commerce is a no go.
Ukraine is trying to break into the EU / NATO, economical it's in our best interest and Europes to allow that to happen rather than keep them under Russias thumb.

Why are we better off with the Ukraine being part of NATO? I don't see the value, what does Ukraine have to offer? They seem like a security problem more than anything. Not to mention the fact that NATO has likely already outlived its usefulness. The cold war is over and it's time for our foreign policy to reflect that.Agvet12 said:Jayhawk said:

But Europe has not made anything to do with the Ukraine a priority. Not important for us either. Not worth a single US life. Maybe Biden can get some of our gear back from the Taliban and ship it there.Agvet12 said:japantiger said:Their GDP is about $150b....they represent a rounding error on European GDP ($22T.)Agvet12 said:Jayhawk said:
