This is the Deputy National Security Advisor to the President of the United States. His answer here shows that the United States and Europe are not really invested in stopping Vladimir Putin. Daleep Singh says we will do nothing to stop Russia from exporting its energy products.
As I have said all week, Putin sized up the west appropriately. We took the advice of a Swedish teen on the spectrum who is convinced the world is going to end and we outsourced our energy national security to Russia.
The United States could be energy independent. We could be providing oil and gas to Europe. But we all gave up and relied on Russia instead.
Additionally, Biden is shifting his rhetoric about sanctions. Last week, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, White House Press Secretary Jenn Psaki, and Vice President Harris all said the Biden Administration’s sanctions were designed to deter Russian aggression in Ukraine. Yesterday, Joe Biden contradicted all of them and said his sanctions were never meant to do that. Which is it?
On top of that, the Biden Administration is scared to give Ukraine arms because Russia might get mad at us. Administration officials actually worry that giving arms to Ukraine could escalate the situation. I’d say it already is.
If we do not stand up for Ukraine and help them, Russia will not stop there. If Kyiv falls, we should turn Ukraine into Russia’s second Afghanistan.
This will be an appalling legacy for Joe Biden. The leader of the free world has turned is back on freedom, much like Barack Obama did to the Iranian protestors. The United States needs to stand up for Ukraine. Our sanctions are not significant or painful enough. Allowing Russian energy exports to proceed is surrendering to Putin.
Shame on the western nations. Shame on us.
One More Thing…
It is important for you to understand there is a disinformation campaign being waged by Vladimir Putin that many American isolations are falling for.
If you hear someone blame NATO and its possible expansion into Ukraine for this war, you are falling for a talking point that is not true. Putin has coveted Ukraine for a long time. NATO expansion had been considered but was not even on the horizon for discussion at this time. It is simply not true to say this has anything to do with NATO.
Putin has actually railed on NATO for years independent of Ukraine. What is going on is Putin wants a Russian sphere of influence and expects Ukraine to be part of it, given Russia’s history.
We need to take a hard look in the mirror. To the outside world the U.S. is a corrupt and confused nation more concerned about supporting programs like "Boys Can Have Vaginas and Girls Can Have Penises" than we are about critical domestic and international issues. We are so weakened, unserious and unprepared right now, we couldn't even defend a NATO country from attack, let alone Ukraine. And say what you will about Donald Trump, it is a good bet that this would not be happening on his watch.
At least American liberals are consistent - virtue signaling 🤡🤡🤡. Claim they care for the environment and shame others who allegedly don’t. They cut American oil, gas, coal and nuclear production to show they truly care. Meanwhile, they get all the oil and gas they can from Russia and Mideast and even beg Saudi Arabia for more - my lord these people are pathetic. I’m a middle age man now, these fools have been a cancer on the world throughout my life - nothing changes but time.
