Spot on. There is more and more discussion among Polish population that if we cannot count on the USA help we should develop our own nukes. It is very clear that Ukraine made mistake by giving up nuclear weapons and believing that the USA along with Britain would deliver on terms of the Budapest Memorandum signed in 1994 which was supposed to guarantee Ukraine's territorial integrity. This is one of the reasons is why there is such a support for developing nuclear expertise as Poland has signed multiple contracts last year to start building nuclear power plants. After experiencing "Russian mir" most Eastern Europeans would rather die or "eat grass" as Sikorski said than have the return of Russian influence to their countries.

Is France unwilling to provide "extended" nuclear deterrence to eastern Europe? In the US-led post WW2 order, in spite of losing the war, France was granted a position on the UN permanent security council with the intent of making them the guardian of free Europe.

@@Nainara32 On March 31, 1939 France and Britain signed agreement with Poland that they would come to Poland's rescue in case of Nazi Germany invasion. After German invasion a few months later France and Britain did almost nothing to help Poland. Poles will never trust French to protect them again. For better or worst America has been seen and welcomed, especially in Europe, as the super cop that is keeping Europe peaceful and secure. In return American companie get preferential treatment. For example Westinghouse got a massive contract last year from Polish government over French and Korean companies to build nuclear power plants. If US starts moving inwards most countries that can afford it will start to developing their own nukes, as this will be the only chance to say safe.

Building a nuclear weapons program in the EU is the only way forward imo. The US is clearly reticent to help and I imagine that that won't change in the near future. The split personality disorder of the US (sometimes isolationist, sometimes interventionist) makes them hard to rely on. If we build up strong nuclear capabilities we can build a modern army around that and deter further Russian aggression.

Just one more battle and we will win…Just one more super weapon…just one more supplemental appropriation…democracy will prevail…our credibility depends on it…if we fail it is because we did not do enough (as opposed to we got ourselves into a losing proposition). The only failure here is diplomacy.

US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin named the goal of military involvement in the Ukrainian war: "We want to see Russia weakened." The United States was never interested in fighting victoriously against Russia with its own soldiers, but rather in using Ukraine to wear Russia down. In September 2022, six months after the war, the first reports emerged that neither the US nor the other NATO countries have enough industrial capacity to supply Ukraine with sufficient ammunition. At the same time, Russia has overtaken the West in production by many times. According to military experts, two years after the war, many NATO states are militarily weaker than before. The following question therefore arises for me: The US maintains 18 secret services with an annual budget of $52 billion per year. How can it be that the US government was not informed about its own production capacities and Russia's production capacities in order to develop a better strategy?

@jeffbenton6183 10 ай бұрын

The answer to your question is that your assent of NATO production is wrong. The weapons that NATO has given to Ukraine are not ones which are powerful enough to severely weaken any of them by leaving. Most Nations have gotten stronger in the past two years. US artillery production has ramped way up as has air defenses across several NATO nations, just to name a few. Russia doesn't have the economy to keep this level of production up for a whole decade, but the US and Western Europe does.

@@jeffbenton6183 No, your description of the situation is incorrect. By the end of 2025, the US will produce 100,000 artillery shells per month. Now Russia can produce almost 500,000 artillery shells per month. And most of the ammunition is produced by Western Europe and the US for their own stocks and only a small part for Ukraine. What is interesting is that these problems of ammunition shortages due to the support of Ukraine have been known for a long time. Just google “Is the United States Running out of Weapons to Send to Ukraine?” Here you can find an interesting scientific article from CSIS from September 2022. And now it's being reported in our media all the time. Even the German Defense Minister and Chancellor have admitted that they cannot keep up with Russia in the production of artillery shells. And since by the end of 2025 the US will produce only a fifth of the artillery ammunition that Russia produces, the problem will not be solved in the future. And the problem isn't just artillery shells. Russia has so far deployed over 6,000 cruise missiles in Ukraine. This has never happened before in military history. The Americans were only able to deploy 350 in Iraq in 2003. My tip to you is to use official statistics and form your opinion based on them.

Do you think this guy has heard about this war called Vietnam before? I heard once, that a country created a coalition and went into Afghanistan 🇦🇫 and stayed for 19 years. In the end, that coalition was humiliated and kicked out by dirt farmers. Now, this same group of people who were humiliated by 8th century dirt farmers. Wants to try again, only this time against a fellow nuclear power. Is it possible for the US to just have a few years of peace without a new conflict? Maybe spend a country trillion on our own country instead of others? Give us five years of peace, then we'll follow you into the next you tell us we should care about.

Macron is panicking. Zelenskyy regime is on its last legs and it will unlikely survive until the end of the year. Well, it's a quote from The Time article. Zelenskyy top advisers say about him: “He deludes himself, ” one of his closest aides tells me in frustration . “We’re out of options. We’re not winning. But try telling him that. It is immovable, verging on the messianic.” One Austrian artist was in a similar state in 1945. Zelenskyy "achievements" to date: 500,000 Ukrainians are dead, 3x that mangled and crippled for life, half of Ukraine's population is living as refugees scattered all over Europe and Russia right now, they're drafting women because they've run out of men to kidnap off the streets, gyms and public transport . NYT wrote about these mass kidnappings that were happening only in Zelenskyy Ukraine and Hitler's Germany in 1945 in an article ‘People Snatchers’.

How long can the US keep deficit spending on Ukraine? Ukraine can’t afford their own weapons and Europe doesn’t want to buy them from America either. The US spent vast sums in WW1 and WW2 and were not repaid for those efforts.

@@chillxxx241 That wouldn't disprove anything I said even if it were true (it isn't). I said the US got rich-*er* not rich-*est.* The US was richer immediately after WWI than immediately before. The US was richer immediately after WWII than immediately before. Moreover the economy kept growing afterwards. The US barely had an arms industry before WWI. Because of the war, they were able to build one; that proved quite profitable in the long run. What you don't seem to understand about debt is that it's an *investment.* It would be stupid to go into debt to gain something that won't grow in value, but it's perfectly reasonable to use it to build something productive - like a factory. People don't understand that the US *exports* security. Being the guarantor of so many country's territorial integrity might not come with strings attached, but that doesn't mean it doesn't lead to profit in the long run - it's a big part of why the US dollar is still the reserve currency after all this time, for instance. Anyways, as I said before, the statement "It was the largest economy in the world by the middle of the 1800s" is false. That didn't happen until 1890.
