US says it will send troops to eastern Europe if Russia invades Ukraine

The US has said it would send reinforcements to Nato’s eastern flank in the wake of a Russian invasion of Ukraine, as well as imposing severe new economic measures, in a warning to Moscow on the eve of talks between Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin.

Biden will also make clear to Putin that the US will not rule out future Ukrainian membership of Nato, as the Russian leader has demanded, a senior US official said.

With an estimated Russian 100,000 troops already gathered within striking distance of the borders, the crisis is the worst since 2015, when Moscow staged a large-scale incursion into Ukraine, clandestinely sending tanks and artillery to encircle Ukrainian troops and compel Kyiv to sign a peace agreement in Minsk that has since come close to collapse.

The official pointed out in a briefing to reporters before the Biden-Putin video summit that the first Russian military intervention in Ukraine led to more US troops and equipment to be deployed in eastern Europe, and there would be similar response this time.

I have to believe Russia knocking at the door of Ukraine and China at the door of Taiwan at exactly the same time is just an amazing coincidence.  :3:

All troops sent should be POC and LGBQT so as not to import American White racism to the region.

Indeed. We wouldn't want to expose Ukrainians to that darn white supremacy.

The only question that matters is, how does intervening in Ukraine help the core interests of the United States?

An EXCELLENT question!

Has anyone answered it?

Nope.  But the drums of war are beating on both sides of the political aisle.

That's because of all the defense industry jobs at stake.

Very doubtful.  More likely, liberals want the tail to wag the dog.

By the way, is it at all notable that Crimea became part of Russia during the Obama administration, and now Russia is supposedly preparing to invade Ukraine during the Biden administration, but never did either when they had their blackmail-controlled puppet in the White House?— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) December 8, 2021

Could Putin be trying to build a more reliable land bridge from Russia to Kaliningrad?  Kaliningrad is a Russian enclave on the Baltic that is currently separated from Russia by several other countries.  It's port is ice-free year round, so that may be an important consideration.

This has been my operating assumption since Russia invaded the Crimea.

After our triumphant withdrawal from - where were we, again, Afghanistan? - we just need another democracy-saving project. Yeah, that's it.

No,it's not. NOTHING speaks louder than sacks of money left on the doorsteps of politicians,along with the promise of votes come the next election.
