What a coward this Usurper is. At least the real duly elected President went there to show support.
What an a**hole
you are! Trump goes for some cheap publicity, and takes no responsability whatever for ending safety regulations that may even have contributed to this accident (or caused others) and you treat that as … genuine.
Biden actually showed real political savvy and commitment, and some personal courage, in going to Kiev — demoralizing Russian soldiers and officers, who have grumbled that Putin won’t even visit Crimea or Russian cities near the Ukraine border.
Tragic as it was, nobody died in the train derailment, but hundreds of thousand have and many more will die in Ukraine, due to Putin’s bloody invasion in February. The risk of a wider European war, or even WWIII, is real as well — and the President and his advisers are correct to give this issue their almost undivided attention at this time.
That doesn’t mean Biden’s policies are always going to be correct in Ukraine, and there certainly seems at present he is paying little attention to finding a peaceful end to the war. But the first requirement for a successful conclusion to the war is for Russia to understand its invasion will not and cannot succeed.
NATO & European “democracies” must hang together to help Ukraine survive, but that does
not mean maximalist Ukrainian nationalist demands — or U.S. appetites to seize Crimea, Black Sea oil pipelines and resources, or bring about the collapse of Putin’s Russian Federation through a proxy “endless war” — should be supported.
