The US may not back them, but it certainly doesn’t condemn them either. This is the tightrope that has been walked between the nuclear-armed parties of interest since the beginning of the conflict.
I get that they are trying to do the “war isn’t so far from home” thing but it is a delicate balance to strike…as Ukraine well knows, an attack near your home is more likely to strengthen your resolve against the country that just attacked you.
Of course they don’t, they aren’t interested in a decisive Ukrainian win. The US would be ecstatic if this war lasted a decade with Russia being stuck in a no win situation.
Russia should probably just leave Ukraine then.
That’s ultimately going to happen.
All of a sudden, the Biden administration is doing its best to betray Ukraine.
