Presidents Joe Biden took his case for supporting Ukraine to the U.N. General Assembly, claiming Moscow believes the world will grow weary of the war and allow Russian forces to "brutalize Ukraine without consequence."

Biden said that if Moscow is allowed to win in Ukraine, no country would be safe from "naked aggression."

Russia alone bears responsibility for this war," Biden said. "Russia alone stands in the way of peace because Russia's price for peace is Ukraine's capitulation.". 

Mr. Biden's words wasn't followed by the G20. The UN gathering will follow with similar response.  So many Hollow Words?   Just a thought.

 For most of this century, Germany racked up one economic success after another, dominating global markets for high-end products. 

Now, Germany is the world’s worst-performing major developed economy, with both the International Monetary Fund and European Union expecting it to shrink this year.

The loss of Moscow’s cheap natural gas, an unprecedented shock to Germany’s energy-intensive industries, long the manufacturing powerhouse of Europe.

Germany risks “deindustrialization” as high energy costs and government inaction on other chronic problems threaten to send new factories and high-paying jobs elsewhere.

The Kremlin has effectively fallen into a trap laid by the US and Nato that is intended to bring down Putin’s regime.

On 26 March, President Biden, speaking in Warsaw, said, unscripted: “For God’s sake, this man [Putin] cannot remain in power.” Such an overt statement of intention for regime change in Russia has not gone down well in most of Europe. 

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken later clarified Biden’s Warsaw remark: “As you have heard us say repeatedly, we do not have a strategy of regime change in Russia, or anywhere else, for that matter”. Blinken has apparently forgotten Vietnam, Chile, Iraq, Afghanistan, and quite a few more.

During a White House press conference on the first day of Russia’s invasion, Biden said sanctions are designed not to prevent invasion but to punish Russia after invading “…so the people of Russia know what he has brought on them. That is what this is all about.”
On 27 February, James Heappey, UK Minister for the Armed Forces, wrote in the Daily Telegraph: “His failure must be complete; Ukrainian sovereignty must be restored, and the Russian people empowered to see how little he cares for them. In showing them that, Putin’s days as President will surely be numbered… He’ll lose power and he won’t get to choose his successor.” Finally, Boris Johnson’s spokesperson said the sanctions on Russia “we are introducing, ....., are to bring down the Putin regime.”   [Robert H.

Lost..

 

Considering that millions of people lost their lives in the wars before and after Carter's presidency, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Arab-Israeli conflict, the Iraq War and the War in Afghanistan. The fact that the Carter administration did not wage war on any country makes it unique in American history.
