The time to start a campaign against Russia on behalf of Ukraine was weeks ago. It’s too late now, like calling up the national guard hours before a massive shock and awe blitzkrieg campaign. Zelensky should have been making these appeals a long time ago but was delusional.
- dathos 5y agoThat seems harsh, Russia was actively looking for any excuse and those might be good enough. The fact they still attacked could look obvious now but that’s hindsight.
- willis936 5y agoWas Zelensky delusional 10 months ago when he requested NATO speed up Ukraine's membership plan? https://youtu.be/admHGiHGnYY https://youtu.be/admHGiHGnYY NATO has decided it was fine with letting Russia have Ukraine with the expectation that Russia would not invade other countries. I swear I've heard this before in a history class.
- birdyrooster 5y agoYes, 10 months ago and the time surrounding it, Ukrainian membership has never been viable politically or militarily so Zelensky should have seen the writing on the wall. What is sad is that NATO would allow war to happen in order to maintain the hypothetical capacity to admit a country that may no longer exist. If NATO appeasement wouldn't have contained Putin it would be nice to at least have him on record saying he is invading for other reasons.
