Hello Mike!

Exactly my point.

When trumpists say: "not our circus, not our monkeys" - they're making fools of themselves.

Budapest Memorandum signed by the United States, UK, Russia and Ukraine in 1994 clearly prohibits, quote:

"prohibits Russia, the United States, and the United Kingdom from threatening or using military force or economic coercion against Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan, "except in self-defence or otherwise in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations."

Russia violated this twice, in 2014 and in 2022.

This is our circus and our monkeys!
