This is not a good turn for peace in this world. What a great waste of so many lives and money in that sandbox called Afghanistan. Now Russia, along with China; intends to do as they please.
Let's call it out with full honesty, when all is said and done, barring a miracle, the three worst U.S presidents in a row, are Clinton, GBW and Obama. How in the hell could you throw away the position the U.S and the West was in post-Berlin Wall?
I will pray for Biden to do what's right. I hope he isn't listening to the same fools Obama was being advised by.
The Biden administration declared a national emergency on Thursday, slapping sanctions on more than three dozen people in Russia and expelling 10 diplomats, in an about face after the US pulled back two warships heading to the Black Sea.
President Biden reversed course on the warships just before his announcement of the fresh sanctions and after Russia warned the US ships to “stay away for their own good.”
Biden on Tuesday had emphasized on a call with Russian President Vladmimr Putin “the United States’ unwavering commitment to Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity,” and “voiced our concerns over the sudden Russian military build-up in Crimea and on Ukraine’s borders, calling on Russia to de-escalate tensions.”
As a result, the US, alarmed by the military buildup in eastern Ukraine and Russia’s moving warships and landing craft from the Caspian Sea to the Black Sea, said it was sending the two warships to the Black Sea. But the ships were turned around on Wednesday night following the Russian warnings.
“We have no desire to be in an escalating war with Russia,” a senior administration official said Thursday on a briefing call with reporters, adding that it didn’t want the situation to spin “out of control,” Politico reported.
