- nickpp 4y agoDon't you think that by "choosing to let them" in advance and communicating it openly - you increase the likelihood they'll do it? LE: Right now, not "in the future". And then do it again, for the next conquest? And then other dictators like Iran, North Korea and China do it as well?
- fallingknife 4y agoIncreasing the likelihood in the future is better than a 100% probability now.

- fallingknife 4y agoUkraine isn't part of the US. We aren't giving away anything because it was never ours to give.
