You haven't explained what national security interests Ukraine has introduced, as you outlined.so you are saying that appeasement will work this time ?

Talk about conspiracy theories ..i see, you dont lie at least
Former President Donald Trump on Saturday said he would encourage Moscow empire to do “whatever the hell they want” to any NATO member country...so my question to you , If Trump gets elected, will he give Alaska "back" to his "genius" Putin?
Russian state TV discusses options for seizing Alaska
Talking heads discussed Russia's claim to the state, and how the U.S. allegedly fears Russian threats.www.newsweek.com
Yet by their posts it sure sounds that way,I find it to be a stupid argument that those against funding Ukraine automatically means they support Russia and Putin.
The security arrangements outlined in the Budapest Memorandum had already lost their effectiveness, and credibility had been severely undermined because of the 2014 annexation of Crimea, the lack of military intervention in response to this breach from Russia (who also agreed to the Budapest Memorandum), the ongoing conflicts between Ukraine and Russia since 2014, and the shift in political dynamics as both the United States and Great Britain had administration changes and different approaches on foreign policy.
I never said they weren't bound by it .. but history demonstrates that its effectiveness has been comprised, as outlined above.What the hell?
Russia broke it's agreement with Ukraine, so other co-signers are not bound by their promises? Thats is blatantly false.
What I'm "putting up" is what history unfolded and the response the United States and Great Britain had agreed to do, which they didn't.Response to CCrimea invasion was UKRANIAN CHOICE and they agreed to let the international process play out and let west saction Russia instead of entering into direct war with much stronger Russia. None of that means America or Britain were somehow off the hook from the security assitance promises to Ukraine.
Written and signed agreements DO NOT CEASE when administrations change, so again pure nonsense.
Ukraine lived up to their end of the bargain - thgey gave up all their nukes, which ultimately allowed Putin to invade and absolutely THE LEAST we, Americans who urged them to do it, can do is materially support their rightious war of defense.
What you are putting up are just ignorant excuses to sustain a conclusion you've arrived at for ignorant reasons.

Not after the annexation of Crimea in 2014. In fact, what did they do? They condemned Russia's actions, labeled it as being illegal, imposed sanctions, provided non-lethal military assistance such as body armor, medical supplies and training, reinforced NATO presence in Eastern Europe as a deterrent and forward presence as opposed to direct intervention and/or more substantial military support and built a coalition with Western Allies to respond diplomatically and economically."History unfolded" is Ukraine lived up to their end of the deal and US and Britain are supporting Ukraine as they have promissed., along with 51 other countries that don't own anything to Ukraine, but know right from wrong. Too bad you don't.
Not after the annexation of Crimea in 2014.
LOL .. I wouldn't expect you to read the history of events that unfolded and were not aligned with the agreement. The material support were non-lethal items I listed that you didn't want to read. So .. how'd that go? Who occupies Crimea today?Yes after annexation of Crimea, I'm not even reading the rest of your silly garbage.
Ukraine asks for material support we promissed for their defense and we provide it. End of story.
United Nations General Assembly Resolution 68/262 was adopted on 27 March 2014 by the sixty-eighth session of the United Nations General Assembly in response to the Moscow imperialistic annexation of Crimea and entitled "territorial integrity of Ukraine". ... United Nations member states, affirmed the General Assembly's commitment to the territorial integrity of Ukraine within its internationally recognized borders and underscored the invalidity of the 2014 Crimean referendum.Who occupies Crimea today?
We know that .. but who occupies it today?United Nations General Assembly Resolution 68/262 was adopted on 27 March 2014 by the sixty-eighth session of the United Nations General Assembly in response to the Moscow imperialistic annexation of Crimea and entitled "territorial integrity of Ukraine". ... United Nations member states, affirmed the General Assembly's commitment to the territorial integrity of Ukraine within its internationally recognized borders and underscored the invalidity of the 2014 Crimean referendum.
Thank you ..Moscow empire illegally occupies it today
LOL .. I wouldn't expect you to read the history of event
What exactly did I 'make up?'What history of the events?
You are making up half-baked incoherent bs as you go along. Thankfully your opinions are those of inconsequential minority.
What exactly did I 'make up?'
Something I never stated.I've listed it already.
There has been no voiding of agreement,
So, you feel that the United States and Great Britain accomplished what they agreed to in the memorandum leading up to and following the 2014 occupation of Crimea by Russia? Historical actions I've highlighted that demonstrate otherwise, while Crimea is still occupied by Russia.Ukraine lived up to it's promises and America is bound by it's word to materially support Ukraine's defense against a foreign invasion.
