“He could have done that, but it didn’t happen. Yes, the question probably wasn’t pressing at the time because there was no full-scale invasion.
“But our territories were occupied.”
of course, we all know what Trump did do: he tried to extort Zalenskyy for dirt on Hunter Biden by withholding relief funding that the US Congress had already authorized to send to Ukraine. He was even impeached over it.
We seen to disagree here. believe the best thing a leader can do when invaded is protect the lives of as many people who the leader is responsible for as possible.

Depends on if the invaders plan to genocide the people or not. The threat of genocide should influence a leader to fight. The cost of genocide outweighs lives lost in conflict.

If the lives lost in genocide are more than those lost in a successful defense, yes. I don’t think I understand what you’re getting at.

It doesn’t imply that. Fight if you can successfully defend or there is genocide. Ukraine’s ability to successfully defend is dependent on foreigners and that’s a risky position to be in. That is, gambling the lives of your people on the goodwill of foreigners.
