Are spheres of influence no longer a thing, geopolitically?
There's always another point of view. The US invaded Iraq and Afghanistan with little to show for it other than decades of death and destruction and debt.

Word salad is not helpful. If anything says 'we are bumble****s' more clearly please tell me what it is. Normally I'd paste in the article but thinking about this gives me a giant pain in my ***.

Hannity: This is madness
This analysis is from the wrong-headed standpoint that NATO expansion is right, and that what is needed is a further show of strength against Russia to cow Putin into submission. That is a very dangerous game to play, and it is for no gain, because there is no strategic interest for the US in Ukraine. Western aggression caused this situation, and what is needed instead is contrition.
Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR)

Yes they did.Turn on the TV. Did Russia invade?
If you try to bring morality into foreign relations, the inevitable result is bloodshed. Deluded ideologues in the west have tried to bring Ukraine into the western fold because they believe it to be a moral good. This is the result. If these same people had been able to accept an amoral peace, then this situation would not have arisen.
