    It’s MAD, and a few of those “line in the sand” countries get much easier to invade when you control Ukraine. I’d rather NATO not rely on Putin being a maniac who fears nuclear war because what if he’s not?

      It’s MAD

      Dumb typo, I’m aware it’s MAD (mutually assured destruction).

      And I agree. Otherwise every nation with nukes can just bully other nations.

      And in the case of Ukraine they actually had nukes, and gave them up on the promise of our protection, so I definitely think we should be protecting them all out, no matter what.
