Biden halted arms shipments while Russia was amassing troops on Ukraine's border in 2021 !

[yidnar]

Biden demonstrated a massive show of weakness in the months leading up to the Russian invasion of Ukraine by holding back military aid to Ukraine while Russia was amassing troops on the Ukrainian border ! could the war in Ukraine have been prevented if the Biden admin had shown more strength during that time ? I guess all we can do is speculate .. but withholding weapons shipments to Ukraine surely didn't send a message of strength and resolve in the Biden admin to Putin !

Nice try at an obvious flame bait, anti-Biden, post.

But officials on the National Security Council ended up putting the proposal on hold after Russia announced it would draw down troops stationed near Ukraine and in the lead-up to President Joe Biden’s high-stakes summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Do you even read the articles you post links for?

BTW, GFY you feckless idiot.

I recall that apparently Obama sent pillows, blankets and best wishes after Russia attacked them in 2014. Is this true?

Political posturing.

from your link:
But officials on the National Security Council ended up putting the proposal on hold after Russia announced it would draw down troops stationed near Ukraine and in the lead-up to President Joe Biden’s high-stakes summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

One of the sources said the package is still intact, and could be sent to Ukraine quickly. The Washington Post first reported that the administration considered and has now frozen the package. The fact that National Security Council officials froze the aid and the specific weapons discussed for inclusion in the aid package have not been previously reported.

Look it up.

Apparently members of the Security Council disagree with you. If I have to go with them having brains or you, it's a no-brainer.

If the military aid have been given I can see you now blaming the Biden admin for a provocation, nitwit.

The aid package would be worth up to $100 million, according to four people familiar with internal deliberations

Info is available on the net if you choose to avail yourself of it. I surmise you prefer ignorance.

When Russia invaded Crimea and eastern Ukraine in 2014, the Obama administration chose to provide Ukraine with non-lethal aid and humanitarian assistance, according to a fact sheet published by the White House on September 18, 2014. This approach reflected a policy of strategic patience with several aims. The primary rationale included:

• Avoiding escalation: There was a concern that providing lethal aid could escalate the conflict, potentially provoking a more aggressive response from Russia and drawing the United States into a proxy war.
• Encouraging a diplomatic solution: The administration focused on mobilizing international pressure and seeking a diplomatic resolution, rather than relying solely on military action.
• Promoting Ukrainian reforms and democratic development: The United States committed to supporting Ukraine's efforts to establish stability, combat corruption, and strengthen democratic institutions, according to a White House statement.
• Concerns about Ukrainian military effectiveness and weapon security: There were doubts about the Ukrainian military's capacity to effectively use American-supplied weaponry and fears that advanced technology could fall into the wrong hands.
• NATO and European unity: Germany and other European allies preferred a focus on economic sanctions and opposed providing weapons, aiming to maintain a unified front against Russian aggression.

While the Obama administration did provide some military assistance, such as radar, radios, and vehicles, it refrained from sending weapons or other lethal aid. President Obama and his advisors expressed concerns about the potential consequences of arming Ukraine, fearing it might provoke Russia and prolong the conflict.
