  2. so in other words the US is not willing to declare war on Russia right now? breaking news i guess?

  3. But Ukraine already has done so…nukes were given up in exchange for precisely security guarantees…or is it the 1994 treaty just a joke…?

    Even if Ukraine signs the peace deal, Russia never will. Putin knows that as soon as any kind of peace deal is signed, international peacekeepers move onto Ukrainian soil and will act as a tripwire force. That will be the end of Putin’s ambitions.

    What use is an American security guarantee? Or Russian one for that matter? It’ll be broken at the earliest convenience.
