  1. Anyone seen the first Alien? Ash? The magazine? Yeah, that.

  2. At this point, is anyone surprised that this is being ignored?

  3. Like Trump cares about agreements. He won’t even abide by the USMCA free trade agreement *he* made with Canada and Mexico in his first term.

    Bill Clinton signed the Budapest Memorandum. Trump won’t give a second thought to breaking it.

  4. The way my government is acting right now is completely outrageous and stupid.

    I try to imagine how Americans would have reacted if, after Al Queda’s attack on the twin towers, NATO had been like “lol, you’re on your own, bro”, or “we MIGHT be able to help, but first you have to sign away a huge chunk of your natural resources”, or even “Sooner or later your going to have to sit down at the negotiating table with Osama Bin Laden and agree to pretty much everything he wants. That’s the way diplomacy works.”

  5. That’s why the Budapest memorandum disappeared from the pages of White House a few days ago, you know?

  6. The budapest memorandum is going to be a historical reminder that those types of agreements are nothing but shit.

  7. Lets hope when this Orange dikhead tenure is over, the new Potus will come to a sense and reverse back all his wrong doing

  8. Well, we already know that shit wasn’t worth the paper it was signed on. The 3 guarantors wiped their ass with it.

    So what’s another betrayal?

    And look – realpolitik here. Zelenskyy is past that. He already knows. It’s worth it to trade rocks for Ukrainian blood. If he deems it necessary, it’s necessary. He made the offer. I support Ukraine and their leadership.

  9. The Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances, signed in 1994, provided Ukraine with security guarantees from Russia, the United States, and the United Kingdom in exchange for Ukraine giving up its nuclear weapons. This treaty aimed to ensure Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, but it has been violated by Russia, particularly during the annexation of Crimea in 2014 and the ongoing conflict since 2022.

    The treaty was broken, those assurances have not been met.

  10. Like Russia, Agent Orange is quite happy to break any agreement that doesn’t suit him.

  11. Why is this not in major news? Almost seems journalism is not about actually reading a fucking document, but talk about it for 2 hours…

  12. So is there anyone who will bring this to a court in a timely manner or …?

  13. Trump don’t care about agreements and the American people don’t care enough to stand up for what is right or to save their country.

    Their watchdogs did not work, so, laws and agreements are followed sporadically right now after presidents mood.

  14. Trump is a lawless bully. He ignores rules he doesn’t like.

  15. Lol unfortunately no one gives a fuck. Papers mean nothing in the end

  16. It is disturbing that any signatory would be violating such a memorandum. But a democratic partner? The United States of America breaching its principles let alone an agreement of this nature is disgraceful and dishonorable.
