> It's funny how people used to complain that America is the world police. But the second they scale back their global intervention everyone starts whining they aren't doing enough. This is a war mongering piece, with antiquated views of geopolitics. This sounds exactly like the localized nonsense Europe has been consumed with while the rest of the worlds economies advance at a rapid pace.
A sovereign country(Ukraine) buying weapons it needs from another sovereign country (USA) is hardly USA policing anything. USA sending its military to Ukraine to fight would be playing world police.
Also, the author George Soros is an American of Hungarian descent and his opinion has very little direct effect on European foreign policy and decision making.
