  1. Ukraine’s budget security is very important. Its economy is also doing great. Without both aspects, there is not much room for upholding a defense.

    • Zelensky could have left the country like the US wanted him to. He’s a lot stronger than the US officials that disappeared under a cloud of dust as fast as they could.

    • What makes you say that Mike?
      I’m just not sure Zel has failed.

      I don’t think with any situation no matter what, anyone can say someone would have done better, they might have done differently, but there is no way it can be determined it would end better, there are too many variables.

      • His ‘Crimean Platform’ caused this mess. He played Poker, he went All In with an average hand and lost terribly.

    • Mike, the Crimean Platform followed the wish of the majority of Ukrainian people. So, I’m not sure what it is that was so wrong about it.
