counterpoint: when ukraine gave up nuclear weapons we provided security guarantees and are abjectly failing at providing said guarantees and using weasel words to get out of it… it’s not a provocation: the response should have been well-known

At minimum the western powers should have put a no fly zone in over ukraine even if we didnt commit troops on the ground

All of Ukraine is declared a no fly zone by Ukraine. I think what you mean is that NATO should have helped enforce it.
