I think we can be appreciative of what Ukraine is doing and going through. I think they are doing exactly what the Ukraine president said. Not one other country on the European continent is participating in the blood loss like Ukraine in its defense. If putin takes Ukraine it carries with it a significant cost insomuch as trade considering that Ukraine's agriculture is feeding 25% of Europe and 48% of china... hmmm maybe they ought to reconsider that. Haha. Not to mention its oil, etc. So I don't think what he said should be downgraded because he makes a valid point. My opinion.
