I have so often wondered why only the US were talking about ending the war on Ukraine--and no other important European countries.
The delegations from the UK and France joined the talks between Russia, the US, and Ukraine in Geneva without being invited. I think this really messed up the plans to quickly "sort everything out" behind Europe's back and push for the annexation of Donbas which is obviously what the US and Russian delegates were planning to do. London and Paris made it clear: no agreements about Europe without Europe. This is an extremely important show of support and a demonstration of their position. Thank you very much.

a Reverse Marshall Plan. Let's draw on our charitable savings account we have accrued when we wisely and humanely helped rebuild our allies' decimated countries after the insanity of the major world wars. They are our friends. We can ask for help. Helping us will help them. There's never been a time that we have needed our European friends more.
