Nuclear blackmail by russia. Putin would never dare, but he get everyone scared shitless. The same malady that affected the Biden administration. We could have intervened directly, and saved countless Ukrainian lives. We were legally bound to do it, and that is what infuriates me the most.
It is unforgivable, all of it. Ukraine is fighting such a good fight, and just a BOOST would change the whole game for them. What seems amazing, though, is that even with this regime, maybe in spite of them?, Ukraine has plowed forward even stronger, it seems. They won't ever stop fighting.
Yes, they are incredibly resourceful, brave, and inspiring.
