I think beyond that, he has really rallied world support around Ukraine. There certainly would have been support, whoever was President, but he has been able to strike a chord and Ukraine is getting more in terms of money and weapons than they would have gotten For example, I think he shares...

Looks like Biden is going to announce an oil ban today ... I hope, as reported as an option to replace that oil, there is not a lift of the ban on Venezuela. https://www.politico.com/news/2022/03/07/russia-oil-ukraine-biden-00014873

There was the agreement as well after the USSR if the Ukrainians gave up the nukes they would not be invaded .. how many times has that been broken (3 or 4) .. now, Crimea, separatist regions (maybe not invaded, but at least armed by Russia)

Right. Which is why I said the US could survive this fairly easily. We can do what we can to send LNG and coal to Europe in the short term ...partial solution for sure. But they have until next winter to figure it out. Ukraine does not have that much time

That would be great, but until the taps from Russia are shut down they can keep marching. Europe needs to do the same and fast ..and that would have a greater impact than the US doing it ...but the US needs to do it soon and we can manage
