Before dragging the US neck deep into the Ukraine war, President Zombie Biden bragged publicly about drawing the Russians into “porcupine” strategy, wherein the Russian would be bled over a long period by Ukrainians using US/Western weapons. Brandon’s policy objective was a long bloody stalemate. Billions spent on weapons and aid dumped down a rathole, with massive opportunity for corruption lining Biden crime-family pockets. And the postwar “reconstruction” of Ukraine will be the graft opportunity of all time.
“porcupine” strategy, is not as you state.
Rather - a porcupine — a prickly, stubborn nation that would be hard for an invading Russian army to digest
So more about preventing Russia from absorbing Ukraine.
