> Ukraine—why is it Europe that bears the brunt of a conflict that's only driving divisions deeper? It's time to rethink what we’re gaining from this endless support for Zelensky. We need to be brokers of peace, not perpetuators of someone else's war. We’re literally financing a conflict that bleeds Europe dry without serving a single European interest.
I don't think this author expresses an understanding of what NATO is or why it exists. That, or this is a bad-faith peacenik argument made in the hopes that the readers are too dumb to understand why capitulation doesn't work against nuclear blackmail. I recommend If You Give A Mouse A Cookie as political research if you're still confused.
