There is an aggressor: Russia.
There is a victim: Ukraine.
We were right to help Ukraine and sanction Russia three years ago—and to keep doing so.
By “we,” I mean the Americans, the Europeans, the Canadians, the Japanese, and many others.
Thank you to all who have helped and continue to do so. And respect to those who have been fighting since the beginning—because they are fighting for their dignity, their independence, their children, and the security of Europe.

To be clear: this entire thing went off the rails because Zelensky made the catastrophically offensive move of pointing out the reality that Putin broke a ceasefire in 2015 and that when Vance talks about diplomacy, he can’t explain how Putin is a trustworthy partner.
Zelensky simply spoke the truth, which Vance deemed totally unacceptable and offensive because he was trying to “litigate” the issue in front of the press.
And then it unraveled from there. Just wild.

This man, who has ruled Russia for 25 years, wants you to believe that it's of utmost importance that Ukraine holds an election while he ethnically cleanses them.

Not long after I posted this Trump went bonkers on Zelensky. It is very worrying.
Every claim he makes — from America giving a lot more than Europe to Ukraine, Zelensky support’s being down to 4% and Zelensky being a dictator because he’s not called elections (neither did Churchill when we fought for our freedom) — is demonstrably untrue.
More worrying than that every one is a Kremlin talking point/piece of Putin propaganda.
Why does Trump slag off Zelensky yet never have a harsh word to say about Putin.
Bizarre and distressing.
The brutal stalemate on the Ukraine/Russian front line makes the case for peace talks to explore what can be agreed to stop the killing.
But there are times when the Trump White House forgets who it is dealing with.
Putin started the biggest land war in Europe since Hitler. It was unprovoked and unnecessary.
His actions have killed hundreds of thousands of Russians and Ukrainians — and maimed many more.
He has fired his missiles on Ukrainian apartment blocs and train stations.
He has tried to freeze Ukrainian civilians into surrender by crippling electric-power plants.
His troops have kidnapped hundreds of Ukrainian-born children and relocated them to unknown new homes in Russia.
Ukrainian troops have been tortured and executed with Gestapo-like barbarism.
Realpolitik may mean we have to deal with this monster. But let us not forget he is a monster and presides over a barbaric regime.
