Yep. I would have hoped if I were around in 1945, I would also have not recognized Soviet annexation of the Baltic states. I’m also a long term optimistic. I don’t exclude the possibility of a democratic Russia joining NATO someday. … someday. — PolitiTweet.org

Ukraine does not have a right to join NATO. And NATO (& other Americans) do not have the right to tell Ukraine to become neutral. — PolitiTweet.org

Not sure which "people" you have in mind. My view from last August: "Zelensky should stop asking — for now — to sign a NATO Membership Action Plan (MAP).... the hard reality is that Ukraine today is not qualified to join NATO." https://t.co/I6PXWdqqaF — PolitiTweet.org

In 1955, Austria - like Germany - was occupied by the Allied Powers because they fought on Hitler's side. Ukraine today is a democracy, liberated after the collapse of the Soviet empire. When citing the Austrian analogy from '55 for Ukraine today, please remember this difference — PolitiTweet.org

Putin annexed territory and started a war against Ukraine in 2014. Over 14,000 people have died in that war. How can you be neutral when you are under attack? & shouldn't we be demanding that Putin also become neutral, withdraw from Donbas and end the war. — PolitiTweet.org

In talking to colleagues in Kyiv, they often note how unnerving it is to watch the whole world discuss what your country should do and not do without ever asking what Ukrainians want to do or not do. — PolitiTweet.org

Its so very imperial for great powers to dictate the foreign policies of other countries. NATO of course has no obligation to accept Ukraine. But NATO members or Putin have no right to impose "neutrality" on Ukrainians. How can you be neutral when your country is occupied/at war? — PolitiTweet.org

These are inconvenient facts for Putin and his supporters, but Moscow signed the Helsinki Final Act, the Paris Charter, the 1994 Budapest memorandum, the Russia-NATO Founding Act. It's revisionist history to argue now that Russia rejected the post-Cold War order from the get-go. — PolitiTweet.org

Putin's ruled Russia for 2 decades. He came to power as Russia started to recover from the 1990s economic depression. Abroad, Putin has invaded countries, annexed territory, meddled in elections, but faced no serious consequences. So he feels confident & not afraid of risky acts — PolitiTweet.org

Ivan, we rarely agree, so I want jump in and say I agree! And Putin fully understands that Zelensky agreement to the Russian interpretation of Minsk will trigger a major political crisis within Ukraine -- exactly what Putin wants. — PolitiTweet.org

US commentators sometimes forget that Ukraine is a democracy. Zelensky cant do whatever he wants without facing political consequences. Agreeing to "Finlandization" dressed up as the Russian version of Minsk, would spark a major political backlash, maybe even 2013 scale protests. — PolitiTweet.org
