For more than a decade, the United States has nurtured a secret intelligence partnership with Ukraine that is now critical for both countries in countering Russia.

    Ukraine needs to be helped but I hate the CIA habit of “secretly helping”, it got us everything from Saddam Hussein to Operation Condor fo the assassination of Patrice Lumumba.

    Won’t be surprised if in 20 years time we learn that it was more “secret helping” that got Ukraine invaded in the first place.

      I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if the CIA cooked up an invitation to invade Ukraine as a way of expanding NATO membership. They are completely capable of throwing away millions of civilian lives if it meets their end goals. It would hardly be the first time.

      Putin got Ukraine invaded, I don’t care what the US or anyone else did.

      Putin is the one who invaded another country.
