@jessie4696 Reminder, the USA is one of the three parties that disarmed Ukraine's nuclear weapons. If you want to argue for the US to stay out of the unresolved Ukraine-Russia issue, then you should argue for ORDERLY and PROPER EXIT from the Budapest Memorandum. Any EXIT from the insurance agreements SHOULD not be done when the insured party has the intention to use it!

@XyphonXero Note why Trump argued for allowing US allies to arm themselves with their own nuclear weapons.

@XyphonXero US nuclear disarmament interest in the following countries; 1. Japan, refined enough material for about 200 nuclear warheads. The US demanded a nuclear material transfer. Japan still has a fast-breeder nuclear reactor. US and Japan have a mutual defense agreement. Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security between the United States and Japan's Article 5 commits the United States to defend Japan if it is attacked by a third party. 2. Taiwan, the US demanded to halt Taiwanese nuclear weapons R&D. US and Taiwan have a military weapons supply agreement under the Taiwan Relations Act. The act states that "the United States will make available to Taiwan such defense articles and defense services in such quantity as may be necessary to enable Taiwan to maintain a sufficient self-defense capabilities". 3. Ukraine, Budapest Memorandum. 4. Australia, the US promised nuclear weapons protection in exchange for dropping the joint UK-Australia nuclear weapons and rocket programs. Australia has large uranium deposits. Australia is a major Titanium supplier for the US. F-35's Titanium has a high Australian Titanium probability.

@XyphonXero Again, if YOU want to argue for the US to stay out of the unresolved Ukraine-Russia issue, then YOU should argue for ORDERLY and PROPER EXIT from the Budapest Memorandum. Any EXIT from the insurance agreements SHOULD NOT be done when the insured party has the intention to use it!

@XyphonXero For US defense and security agreements EXIT with other countries 1. Please ask the US Congress to formally withdraw from the nuclear weapons umbrella. Read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_umbrella 2. Please ask the US Congress to send nuclear weapons technology to countries like Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and Australia. 3. Please ask the US Congress to allow nuclear weapons technology armaments for countries like Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and Australia. 4. Exiting from the US "nuclear umbrella" needs a transition phase.

@XyphonXero Note that Japan has co-developed the Aegis missile defense system with the US. US withdrawal from the Japan technical cooperation agreement would need to disarm the US Ageis system i.e. remove Japan's contribution!

@XyphonXero Reminder, note why France, the UK, and Israel have their own nuclear weapons mostly due to the 1956 Suez Canal crisis when USSR have threaten to nuke UK, France, and Israel while the US withdrew its nuclear weapons coverage for UK and France. I dislike insurance vendors who offered insurance and run away from it when the insured party has the intention to use it. DON'T make paper security assurances for removing nuclear weapon armament if you can't back it up.

@XyphonXero For the record, I didn't support Chyna's entry into WTO with loophole promises i.e. don't assume. Report: Saudi Arabia Presses U.S. on Overthrowing Saddam Hussein Date: January 19, 1992 <---- note the year. From AP NEWS NEW YORK (AP) _ Saudi Arabia is pressuring the Bush administration to secretly arm and give intelligence to Iraqi opposition forces so they can work to overthrow Saddam Hussein, a newspaper reported Sunday. The Saudis want the United States to give arms and intelligence to Kurdish rebels in north Iraq, Shiite Muslim fighters in the south and Sunni Muslim opposition forces in central Iraq, the Times said, quoting U.S. and allied officials it didn’t name. ------ From 1992, it was Saudi Arabia's pressure to remove Saddam, hence US energy independence is important. Saudi Arabia was an important player to lower oil prices that gimped USSR's energy exports. The green movement towards increase natural gas demand from coal has effectively restored one of Russia's main foreign earnings. Refer to "House of Bush, House of Saud", by Craig Unger., Russia is not the only energy exporting country with geopolitical costs. Paul wanted a statement inserted into the bill that would have an inspector general scrutinize the new spending.

@Mary Jenson In the 1980s, Taiwan was developing a nuclear bomb when the US told them to stop i.e. VP Geoge H Bush has a pro-China position. >Look at how we faced a world pandemic and who was the country sending millions upon millions of tax revenue (from the people) to "help" the world? Oxford-AstraZeneca company today reached a $750 million agreement with CEPI and Gavi to support the manufacturing, procurement and distribution of 300 million doses of the potential vaccine, with delivery starting by the end of the year. In addition, AstraZeneca reached a licensing agreement with SII to supply one billion doses for low-and-middle-income countries, with a commitment to provide 400 million before the end of 2020. Under the arrangement, the Serum Institute of India (SSI) will produce 1 billion doses under licence from AstraZeneca for India and low-income countries. The Oxford-AZ deal includes the potential for non-exclusive, royalty-free licences to be offered to manufacturers to support production that is free-of-charge, at-cost, or at cost with limited margin supply. A bilateral licensing deal is in effect between Oxford/AZ and the Serum Institute India (SII). Australia paid $2.2 billion USD for Novavax's 40 million vaccine doses, Pfizer/BioNTech 10 million vaccine doses with a total of 134 million doses from four COVID-19 vaccines. The cost difference between Australia and India shows a large-scale discount given by UK's Oxford university and AstraZeneca. Unlike AstraZeneca, Pfizer/BioNTech didn't provide the vaccines at-cost. Pfizer had shipped around 430 million Corminaty doses to 91 countries at May 2021. The supply deals have resulted in a massive financial haul: Pfizer reported $3.5 billion in global Corminaty sales for the first quarter 2021. Pfizer and BioNTech will provide an additional 500 million doses of their Covid-19 vaccine to the U.S. government to be donated to lower-income countries. Australia's total Pfizer doses are 125 million, and Australia has purchased more than 280 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines. Australia covers Oceania and parts of the South East Asia region. UK (for India, Africa), US (for South America, Africa), and Australia (for Oceania and parts of South East Asia) cover their respective interest area.

https://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/a-guide-to-understanding-the-dairy-dispute-between-the-us-andcanada/article34802291/ Canada has long maintained a high tariff wall on most dairy products. The duty on milk is 270 per cent. That keeps most imports from the United States and elsewhere out of Canada, while helping to prop up higher domestic prices. One notable exception is ultrafiltered milk and other protein-rich dairy ingredients used to make dairy products such as cheese and yogurt. North American free-trade rules do not cover these ingredients, so they enter Canada duty-free. And in recent years, U.S. dairies have developed a booming business selling these low-cost products to dairies in Canada ($133-million last year). That all changed about a year ago, when Canadian dairy farmers and producers moved to close the breach in the tariff wall with a new "ingredients strategy." They persuaded regulators to create a new lower-priced class of industrial milk as an incentive to get dairies to produce protein substances in Canada, using Canadian milk. The result was predictable: U.S. imports fell in 2016, and are declining sharply so far this year. ---- In 2016, Canada started a trade war against US. Hypocrites from Canada. Canada talks about "Free Trade" while installed a trade protection for it's dairy industry.
