Well, they appealed for military aid to the Obama administration, but were given a paltry $130 million in ‘non-lethal’ support instead. And the Democrats just used the filibuster to stop a Republican bill to sanction Russia, I guess to prevent Biden from having to veto it for whatever reason.
Biden’s actions make him look far more like a Putin stooge than Trump ever did. He waived sanctions to allow the Nord 2 pipeline from Russia to Europe, while today refusing to support a pipeline from Israel to Europe which would limit Putin’s ability to shut off European power for political reasons. Totally baffling. Then he came out and basically said America would look the other way at a ‘limited’ excursion into Ukraine.
No, I don’t think he’s a Russian Stooge. He’s just Joe Biden - a person who has been wrong on almost every foreign affairs issue in my lifetime. He was against the first gulf war, for the second one, against the raid that killed Bin Laden, for the toppling of Ghadaffi and the mess in Syria, and presided over the disastrous pullout in Afghanistan. So he doesn’t have to be a stooge to do things this dumb.
