  Not only that, but if I were a non nuclear country banking on US help, I’d be strongly considering a nuclear program right now. Maybe I’m overreacting but this could be the most dangerous, globally destabilizing event in my lifetime. Both the decision of Russia to invade, and the political games in the US resulting in the withholding of aid.

  But hey I’m not exactly all that knowledgeable when it comes to geopolitics so I’m probably wrong.
