Ukraine had a treaty with NATO and the US .. cover in case of Russian aggression in exchange for giving up their nukes

well, we left them out to twist... and they learned what the word of progressives is worth

I would expect china to amaze similar moves against those unable to put up a fight

how’s that change working, America?

hell... how’re you enjoying the ‘reset’?

Ukraine had a memorandum signed by the Sink Emperor that was never submitted to the Senate for ratification.

That is not a treaty.

There is not and never was any such treaty. The 1994 Budapest Memorandum was never submitted to the U.S. Senate for ratification and is therefore not a binding international treaty. As a mere "political agreement" it is not worth the paper it was printed on.
