Professor Sachs bodied Morgan in pointing out how he's acting like a child who doesn't know what he's doing.

You have no idea what sovereign or democratic even means. Go grab a dictionary buddy. No it's not Ukraine's decision to make, no country is allowed to take a decision equivalent to pointing a gun at somebody else's head. Countries just tolerate such actions if they're too weak to do anything about it. Ever heard of Cuban Missile Crisis? Where's that attitude for Cuba? What about the Munroe doctrine? Have you ever studied basic history?

@barryshapiro9703 Again, you still don't have any understanding of what those words, mean. If there's a coup funded by another country, it's neither a sovereign or a democratic nation. And furthermore, are you going to keep ignoring those 2 gigantic historical facts? The Cuban Missile Crisis and the Munroe Doctrine? Go study basic history.

@barryshapiro9703 Buddy, are you insane? Cuba was a sovereign state. Do you understand that sovereign countries doesn't have to be "democratic"? And within the Budapest memorandum, there's a clause for Ukraine to be neutral among 2 sides of Russia and US. That coup in 2014 violated that memorandum entirely. Buddy, you can't keep ignoring historically important facts to fit your bubble. Either get out of such hypocrisy mentality or stay quiet.

What do you mean there's no information? There's that speech made by the US in 2008, the continuous expansion of NATO since 1990, there's that coup funded by the US in 2014. Don't try to deny the coup, we have the tape, buddy. What Ukraine doesn't matter anymore since their government got overthrown and replaced with extremists. Ukraine was too weak, too incompetent to stay neutral, they got overthrown by the US, and that means the US is deciding for them.

Buddy, if Hitler had nuclear weapons, you wouldn't have dared to attack him before negotiations. Why don't you grow up and get out of this little bubble?

What are you talking about? There's no election in Russian culture. It's an absolute monarchy until the fall of the Tsar, and it's an absolute party system during the Soviet period. Buddy, there's no election at all, the strongest leader takes power and take care of his or her people. Do you get that? That's Russian culture.

No, seemingly you don't understand the difference between negotiating and surrendering. There's a difference, the buddy. And the difference is what saved your life and your parent's life. When Kennedy agreed to negotiate with the "dictatorial" Soviet Union. Why don't you grow up, homie. Wanting to pick a fight with everyone is the quickest way to an early demise. They may be dictators but their domestic governing is absolutely none of your business. Self determination means foreigners like you get booted out from interfering. You get that?

@moinyp Yes, actually it will. Must be a shock to you, eh. That sane and competent people can get things done? The first principle is respect, you respect the other side position except when their position is not respecting yours.

Buddy, it's you who is the naive and childish one. If you don't have normal relations to your neighbors and colleagues, what will you have? A constant state of aggression where you make threats after threats after threats? Nobody is out to get the US, but the US is always out to get everybody. Grow up and you'll see this. If a person at the workplace constantly wants to pick fights. That's an insane person.

That's because their real experts and you're just noob, buddy. Just stay quiet, this issue is way, way, way above your paygrade.

I don't think you know anything about History, buddy. Go study history, Taiwan is a part of China, the people on there are immigrants from China mainland, speak the same language, write the same way, share the same culture, history, celebrate the same festivals, they even consider the same person, Sun Yat Sen as national hero. Hawaii is historically not belong to the United States, so is California. But Taiwan has been officially a part of China twice as long as the entire existence of the United States. And unofficially even far longer.

@barryshapiro9703 No sovereign state in the world has the right to threaten another country indirectly by alligning itself with a hostile organization. No state. This wasn't proposed by the Russians, it was proposed by the US with their Munroe Doctrine and their handling of Cuban Missile Crisis. Until you can grasp that, go back to basic history. And if you still don't agree. Too bad, you insane people have no place in this argument, the overwhelming majority of the US population and the global population shall move on without you.

@barryshapiro9703 It's very clear that you were a below average student of history and international relations. I suggest sticking to some field more fitting to your IQ level. Plumbing might be a great field, they make decent pay.

@barryshapiro9703 It's very clear that you were a sub-par student of history and internation relations. So my suggestion would be to stick with a field that you're fitted to do. Plumbing, perhaps.

@barryshapiro9703 The idea of a state being able to do whatever it wants, including threatening another state by alligning itself with a hostile bloc is unacceptable. It's not just unacceptable to the Russians, it's unacceptable to the US. It was the US who proposed this in the modern age. With the Munroe Doctrine and then the handling of Cuban Missile Crisis. Get back to reality, will you?

You need to watch less propaganda, buddy. The economic shock therapy is supposed to come with a supporting factor of loans and financial assistance from the US and the West, the same way it had happened in Poland. The US didn't come through and that's what brought you Putin. Are you going to ignore the very successful results in Poland?

Buddy, we have the tape of the Ukrainian Coup. You have a State Department Officials Nuland talked to the ambassador of picking new position in governments 3 weeks before the coup. Are you a child or something? And furthermore, Jeffrey Sachs was one of the few experts invited to Ukraine for assistance right after the coup and talked to the individuals there of the newly established government as chosen by Nuland. One of the few people who has first hand experience of the issues. You're not supposed to know this, pal. The US hide it from you, stop being so naive, this classification level is way above your paygrade. So why don't you start listening to actual experts who were there?

What are you talking about, buddy? The guy is one of the only surviving economist that actually had a successful policy program in Poland. It is you who are ignorant about this issue.
