That Russian apologist professor at the end is REALLY hard to take. His cherry-picked version of history and WWIII fear-mongering is political propaganda, and not based upon the facts. Somehow members of the so-called Right these days talk precisely how Bernie Sanders used to back in the 1980s, yet expect to be taken seriously. Megyn, do better.
Fact is, in the early 1990s, with Yeltsin in charge in Russia, it was widely thought that the Cold War and its vestiges had been permanently erased. Francis Fukuyama's "The End of History" perfectly captured the moment. The US asked Ukraine to give up their nuclear weapons, which they only did in exchange for a US guarantee of protection. We then sold them down the river, like we have all too often with the Kurds. I wish we were more honorable in our relations with other countries.
Fact is, if Trump were in office, the Ukraine invasion would have never happened. It was Biden's ineptitude which gave Putin the green light to do as he pleased. That started with the Afghan disaster, of course, but then continued with Biden's pulling the choke chain on the Ukrainians, again showing weakness and fear to the Russians.
Which is precisely what Jeffrey Sachs favors. Biden should have let Ukraine be aggressive against Russia on Day One, and perhaps this war could have ended much earlier. Instead this administration did everything to ensure a long-term quagmire, giving Ukraine just enough to prolong a war and drag out endless slaughter. This belated move by Biden is a small step in the right direction of placing Ukraine in a better negotiating position once Trump enters office.
