If I hear the “but how can russia be trusted at all, after it violated the peace guarantee it gave to Ukraine as a basis for nuclear disarmament!” stance one more time, I’ll just stand up and leave the room. How could russia be trusted tomorrow, or in a significantly weakened state, or two years from now, or as a chinese satellite state, or… Now draw up the likely numbers of lives lost in each scenario, and compare them to your “I feel can now be trusted indicator” you just made up based on your personal feelings about a man. But the crazy Putin though! Please quantify. Once that sunk in, lets agree on figuring this one out along the way, before we only have one person left standing in a zero sum game configuration - to the end.

edit2: As a contrast, you can watch Zeihan again. 🙂
