@mcfaulmike.bsky.social: “Trump, Vance & others either have forgotten or never knew that Zelensky signed a ceasefire agreement with Putin in 2019. Three years later, Putin launched his full-scale invasion. So, signing another ceasefire with no security guarantees feels like suicide for Ukrainians.”

Putin can never be trusted.
Trump can never be trusted.
Period.
In 2014, Russia violated the memorandum by annexing Crimea and supporting separatists in eastern Ukraine. The U.S. and U.K. condemned the breach but did not provide military intervention, as the memorandum did not include a direct defense guarantee.
The three nuclear powers pledged to:
Respect Ukraine’s sovereignty and borders.
Refrain from using force or economic pressure against Ukraine.
Not use nuclear weapons against Ukraine.
Seek UN assistance if Ukraine were threatened with nuclear weapons.
It's an important fact to bring up and share.
Hopefully, by posting this, it will spotlight the idea that dictators and wannabes shouldn't be trusted to keep their word.
On December 5, 1994 the leaders of Ukraine, Russia, United Kingdom, and the United States signed a memorandum to provide Ukraine with security assurances in connection with its accession to the NPT as a non-nuclear weapon state.
No ceasefire without security

That was an example of countries working together,
but it didn’t hold up when Putin invaded in 2014.

is dead.
Sure seems to me like we failed to live up to the agreement 🤔

Never seen anything like it!!
America is so screwed.
I guess it's safe to tell him Zelenskyy does wear a suit to meet foreign dignitaries 🤭
Honest to God, I love Americans but, those who voted for a man that has little knowledge of the world and history was a terrible mistake.

As in foolish
If they would stop sucking putin, maybe some oxygen could travel to their combined one braincell!

History is a bitch but you need to learn all of it.
Slava Ukraine!
“ Look there’s me in a suit”
Then he'll attack again.
The whole notion of a ceasefire without military protection from the west is assisting Putin.

Members of Congress-Democrat and Republican:
🙏
Boycott the speech
Wear Putin mask
Trun your back in protest
Make it clear--we won't accept his destruction of our democracy!!
JD Vance only knows what Trump tells him and is grossly incompetent.
Vance is a fascist, not a communist. They are polar opposite ideologies.
Even you can learn the meaning of words.
These people are about as communist as Warren Buffet.
ALL DEMOCRATS SHOULD DRESS LIKE PRESIDENT 🇺🇦Volodymyr Zelenskyy🇺🇦
Gaza and Ukraine are two perfect examples
Putin's playing Trump like a fiddle.
AMATEURS.
for removing the nuclear arsenal
left when the Soviet Union failed?
I don't think they're going to fall out of line.
Kevin McCarthy went to kiss the ring to get the Speakership. He revived this. People were ready to move on until then.
It is more bruised than his hand!!!
This is the world opinion of the US. Enjoy.

He signed trade deals with MX and CAN in his last tenure which he now says “who would sign these?”
It is.
We all know it.
The US and UK promised to back Ukraine.
At least we (UK) are keeping up our end.
They don't care about facts!
They don't want to know!
DJT has been an obvious Russian stooge since he supported Putin over our intelligence agencies in Helsinki.
MAGA is entirely based on lies to support conspiracy theories.
Facts mess up the message.
Then, "you didn't say thank you."
He knows Putin breaks treaties.
So does Trump!
Mr. USMCA now is placing tariffs on Canada & Mexico in violation of the treaty HE negotiated!
And Trump thinks he's being so clever bout it, when he's just being really, really transparent.
Trump's motivation is to do exactly what Putin wants, so he can ingratiate himself, usher Vlad back onto the world stage, and make some money for himself and Elmo.
He cares nothing for "lesser" states. They are fodder.
