For 4 years we had relative world peace. Now we do not. What changed between them and now?
Lots of things. It's niave to think a single variable no matter how significant made a difference. I really want to know what Trump would have done that Biden didn't to stop this from happening. Put troops on the ground? Because if you believe anything short of that would have stopped this is an American-centric perspective of what is happening. The only thing this has to do with Amrrica is the certainty that we wouldn't go to war with Russia over Ukraine.
Something about construction of a pipeline being shut down under President Trump. Then President Biden promoting its construction by Russia. Or additional international sanctions. Or the sending of lethal aid to Ukraine instead of blankets. Or the fact that NATO countries began increasing funding for defense while President Trump was in office. Or the completely incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan exposing President Biden and his administration total failure and President Biden as a failure as a leader. That's just a brief list.
People are falling into the belief that there are no actions that could be taken other than sending in U.S. or NATO troops.
Among the latter, under pretence of governing they have divided their nations into two classes, wolves and sheep.”
Thomas Jefferson, Letter to Edward Carrington, January 16, 1787
