“Ukraine should lease an airbase to an EU lead effort of Nato. Should not be lead by the U.S”

So essentially, you believe the Germans, should fight Russia, in Ukraine to support a coup in Kiev? Basically 150 miles from Volgograd? (Stalingrad) Yeah,,bright idea.

I guess the EU does need living space. Lets call it lebensraum.

What an asinine conclusion you’ve reached.

Nazi Germany doesn’t exist anymore.

EU does not == Germany. Nato does not == Germany.

What I’m saying is that the U.S should not do or have little to do with anything vis-a-vis Russian and the Ukraine. Particularly militarily. The U.S’s interest in Ukraine is vicariously through our European Allies.

Our military is compromised. We simply cannot be the Big Dog in this fight, and we can’t lead the charge for the EU.

If it’s important to the EU, then let the EU handle it and build the coalition.

Oh, and in regards to Coup in Kiev ......

“KIEV, February 22 (RIA Novosti) – Ukraine’s parliament voted Saturday to impeach the president as opposition parties rushed to consolidate their apparently growing hold on authority in the former Soviet nation.”
