I still think if Ukraine had not given up all the nukes, Putin wouldn't have been so antsy to go in there. They believed the promises of other countries to protect them, and I really hope they don't do it this time. The people leaning on them to accept Putin's demands are not necessarily their friends. The U.S. is most certainly not.

From the article:
"You can’t build lasting peace by rewarding aggression. A peace that leaves Ukraine dismembered and defenseless isn’t peace – it’s a temporary ceasefire that guarantees future war."
