Does the defense of our own country surrender to demands or stand strong in maintaining our defense department at a ready state? What Trump is demanding of Ukraine is surrender, not strength and doing so at the expense of civilian lives. That is a crime of international humanitarian standards.
What kind of ally is the USA? One who surrenders to despots or one that brings victory? Trump’s idea of winning is always gambling with lives. That is not winning.
Putin loves the bloodshed as much if not more than the ideology. Putin should ask himself if such strategies worked in Syria. Instead, he will allow Israel to lather at the mouth of expansionism and wait to strike another day.
There are civilians dying in Ukraine unnecessarily.

Vladimir Putin expected the G8 countries to allow the invasion of Ukraine without any resistance. As a result the countries within an alliance are the G7. Putin’s desire for the return of the Soviet Union boundaries is unrealistic and destabilizing globally. In his speech he is preparing for greater war. His ultimatum has nothing to do with peace or economic stability or prosperity, it is all old ideology that supports his POLITICS domestically.
Vladimir Putin’s brinkmanship and marginal threats need to stop. He needs to reassess a much needed peace for now and the future for the people of Russia. He cannot continue to pretend war is an option while draining the lifeblood of allies.
He also understands the threat on Earth’s climate and cares little about it. His politics had taken him into a realm of destabilizing ideology and light years from the largest country supporting the Kyoto Protocol. Rather than leading sanctions against the USA for its hideous climate behavior he is the focus of sanctions and ridicule. His politics are destructive to Russia and its people. When will he finally embrace the Russian speaking people striving for peace again?
No one is asking the Russian people to give up communism as their governance, but, only a return to peace and prosperity. China has the best way forward to ensure all countries boundaries are respected. China values its people and vast domestic improvements far differently without changing its governance. It is time the world value peace rather than hideous dominance militarily of a single ideology. Value life, Vladimir, not the chronic threat of death. Earth is on the brink in this void of reasonable thought and goals. That is the truth and Putin knows it. He could lead if he wanted to casting Trump into the shame he deserves. Stop feeding the beast.
