As with NATO today, lack of contractual obligation does not equal prohibition nor a lack of moral and strategic necessity. It's about political will and the choices of leaders. The refusal to defend Ukraine in 2014 led directly to Putin's escalation now. 3/13 — PolitiTweet.org

Retreating from Putin to hide behind a piece of paper is too familiar to Ukrainians . The 1994 Budapest Memorandum promised Ukraine's territorial integrity in exchange for its nuclear arsenal. USA & UK rushed to deny it was a guarantee when Putin invaded in 2014. 2/13 — PolitiTweet.org

Yet they are eager to repeat the mistake, ignoring that every act of appeasement makes Putin's inevitable escalation more dangerous. This overconfidence affects not only Putin, but the generals who give orders and press even the biggest button. 4/13 — PolitiTweet.org
