It should be a problem Europe has to deal with and not the US. Poor leadership with Biden calling the shots got us into this mess.The Ukrainian war is not a regional skirmish. It has global implications. It was a brazen attack on a sovereign democracy at the gates of Europe. Putin has stated that his war aims are to reconstitute the borders of the old Soviet Union and the Czarist territory into Europe. Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and the Baltic states are next on Putin's agenda. China and Iran are watching how we conduct this matter. If Ukraine falls, China will become more emboldened, starting with Taiwan. That would threaten Japan, the Philippines and Australia. It would sever trade routes with Japan and the Aukus countries and threaten the entire Indo-Pacific region, as Japan did in 1941.
