Thesilkroads, Ukrainians are paying an extraordinary price in defending their country from Putin.

Unfortunately, sitting down with Putin will NOT bring peace and security to Ukraine or Europe, but ongoing interference and attacks.

The West did not bring about this war, and it has no real choice other than oust Putin's forces from all Ukrainian territory. America has been too hesitant and reactive rather than decisive, quick, and bold in the task. I outline as much in "Time for America and NATO to Act?" which I invite you to read.

Many thanks.
