I suppose we didn't assure Gorbachev of anything as well.
I guess that all depends on whose propaganda you want to believe.

Everything is connected to a previous post... ;-) How about the issue of independent states being free to set their own policies and so forth? UN 25/2625 (October 24, 1970): Convinced that the strict observance by States of the obligation not to intervene in the affairs of any other State is an essential condition to ensure that nations live together in peace with one another, since the practice of any form of intervention not only violates the spirit and letter of the Charter, but also leads to the creation of situations which threaten international peace and security, Does Putin's hurt feelings trump that, too? To be clear - yes, we (the USA) too often haven't stood up for those principles in the past. That doesn't mean Putin should be able to trash them now. Ukraine is an independent nation that should be supported while Putin tries to chop it up and impose his views on its government. Cheers, Scott. |
