This is a guest post from "David," who comments regularly on the posts. Here is what David sent:
The United States does not have a formal defense treaty with Ukraine comparable to NATO’s Article 5. However, it has entered into significant agreements—most notably the 1994 Budapest Memorandum and the 2024 U.S.–Ukraine Bilateral Security Agreement—that commit Washington to supporting Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and long‑term defense capacity.
We pledged to support Ukraine; its people are bravely defending their freedom, just as we are. Failing to respond to aggression would undermine our credibility and self‑respect. The agreement "negotiated" between the US and Putin is extremely one sided, the Ukrainians didn’t take part, and they don't accept it.
The Senate approves treaties. Tell them to reject this one. Pass stronger sanctions, especially against Putin and his oligarchs. Write and/or our Senators today. If you're in Pennsylvania:
