They don't need to take one.  Biden is destroying America's standing all on his own.

True enough, but I’m interested in whether they support Russias assertion that the breakaway provinces should be recognized as separate countries just because the inhabitants voted for it/wanted it, or not.  I’m curious because they can’t really take a position without either pissing off Russia or validating Taiwan’s claim to independence. 

In which case, someone should be forcing them to take a position, and just let them play dumb.

US warns it has information that Russia has a 'kill list' of Ukrainians after military occupation
The letter was sent amid fears of a potential Russian invasion in Ukraine

I guess Biden's handlers felt they had to move the fear mongering up a notch since the invasion they have predicting hasn't happened, nice to know it's not just Americans that they want to scare.

Is this Russian 'kill list' like the one Biden gave to the Taliban of all U.S. Citizens and U.S. Supporters in the country?
How is it different? Did the the Russian 'kill list' come from the Biden admin like the last one?

Said at the outset that Russia wants sea access.  Shouldn't have caught anybody by surprise.
Pretty obvious as strategic goals go.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Notice Chinese state media uses quotes around “independent republics” here

This is bc they strongly oppose independence for Taiwan and thus cannot support breakaway regions in Donbass

Joe Biden Allows Vladimir Putin to Send More Russian Troops into Ukraine Without Triggering Sanctions

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s decision to send more troops into Ukraine would not trigger the sanctions prepared by the United States and European allies, the White House said Monday.

They have been desperately trying to whip America up into a frenzy over the so called 'invasion' of a country 95% of Americans cannot spell, and 99% could not find on a map. To their credit, whether out of ignorance or apathy, Biden could not get legs on this issue which nobody cares about except him and his clown-car woke joke staff.

Biden's handlers thought they could elevate Brandon to some kind Patton figure single handedly saving America from the Russians. After that, he would start enacting War Powers Acts further restricting freedoms and control of the population since "The Church of the Covidians" has collapsed.

Americans are past tired of stupid greedy politicians and their industrialist lobbyists getting the U.S. involve in stupid wars on the other side of the Earth which are none of our business anyway. I doubt Biden's controllers would have been able to raise a volunteer force of Americans willing to fight and die for Ukraine (whatever that is?). The American government is trying to pull off another Vietnam farcical war (or should I say 'police action'?) and Americans are not having it.

I see what you are saying.  Russia doesn't even follow their own assertion here.  A real leader would be pointing out those contradictions to both Russia and China.  Unfortunately, we are stuck with Joe Biden.

The guy who is going to storm the beaches under fire and lead American Forces to Glorious Victory against the evil Russians. This guy has more medals than a South American dictator. He is obviously a very formidable fellow. The Russian and Chinese quake with fear at hearing his name ... 'Milley'. They are deathly afraid that he will label them all 'White Supremacist Extremists/Trump Supporters' who do not recognize transgender rights and then kick them out of the war.
