    His diplomacy in times of high tension??? A blessing to America.
    For the first time, in a long time, Ive been proud of our country for its aide in Ukraine. While I struggled to believe in a Pres that had made many gross errors, i was impressed by his decision to fulfill this countries commitments.
    Short-sighted is his decision to deny Ukraine fighters.
    Where in America, our miltsry protects democracy and freedom, not destroys it by coups.
    Russia, China, Iran, N Korea, Myanmar, Eritrea, etc. These know the sting of oppression.
