China kills thousands in the Tiananmen Square Massacre with 300,000 troops and get then the United States approves Most Favored Nation status for them within a year. This happened under President Clinton.
Russia annexes Crimea with 30,000 troops with very few deaths. The United States kicks Russia out of the G7 where they remain banned after 4 years. This happened under President Obama.
Iran sends troops to Iraq and Syria after the US completely pulled out by the end of 2011. The United States rewards Iran with pallets of cash. This happened under President Obama.
Cuba has opposed the United States in wars in Africa, The Caribbean, and Central America. President Obama rewarded them with normalized relations.
It seems to me that the liberals should welcome Putin back to the G7 since they always feel comfortable dealing with communists and dictators. There’s only 1 reason to oppose it. They think readmitting Putin to the G7 will help President Trump and they all hate President Trump the most.
Tai_Chung you forget that there is an ongoing war in Donbass where thousands of Russian and Ukrainian fighters (and civilians) have already and continue to die. It is indeed, aptly called “The Forgotten War.”
Also Australia and Holland both agree that Russia was behind the downing of Malaysian Air MH17 plane.
