unpopular opinion maybe but U.S should not have supported Ukraine joining NATO. Some shyt just ain't worth the headache. We're about to be in another long cold war that's going to redirect U.S attention and resources to something half way across the world when we have a ton of current issues in our own borders. All that and Ukraine ain't even in NATO yet has the full support, financially and strategically, of NATO nations
Should have just kept the same plausible deniability not pursing membership while still having an "understanding" that they would be protected
