Seeing some headlines that newspaper should be renamed to antinationalinterest
National interest apparently advocates for appeasement 2 Ukranian Boogaloo
Did Ribbentrop come howling back from hell to write this capitulationist trash?
Neville Chamberlain is back guys! He writes articles now.
>As a prelude to the bilateral U.S.-Russian negotiations set to begin in January, the Biden administration should provide Russia a written guarantee that it will never allow Ukraine to join NATO, will not intervene militarily in any Russo-Ukrainian conflict, will cease all military assistance to Ukraine, and encourage Ukraine to negotiate a peaceful settlement with Moscow.
Heh.
>- will never allow Ukraine to join NATO
>- will not intervene militarily in any Russo-Ukrainian conflict
>- will cease all military assistance to Ukraine
>- encourage Ukraine to negotiate a peaceful settlement with Moscow.
I can understand that Russian interest might be not to let Ukraine into NATO, but why would be the demand “not intervene militarily in any Russo-Ukrainian conflict”, this is like Munich version 2.
The article is really weird. I guess the author’s underlying assumption is that the Russian military (vastly) outclasses ours, and can simultaneously gobble up Eastern Europe and fuck us up at home without taking any damage…?
So yes, in such a world, it’d be logical to avoid conflict at all costs.
However, I’m not sure that his baseline assumption is at all true.
Can this article be considered as an indication that the USA seriously considers downgrading their presence in Europe and letting Europeans deal with the Russkies while providing moral support?
>Yet a provision of Russia’s proposed security agreement states that the United States would “undertake to prevent further eastward expansion of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and deny accession to the Alliance to the states of the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics,” which could be interpreted to require the expulsion of the former Soviet republics of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania from NATO. While the Biden administration has suggested that this provision is unacceptable, it would be in the U.S. national security interest to do so
