Pres Trump should not sign anything like an idiot’s promise to start W.W. 3 fighting Russians as part of a peace agreement. That would be as good of a mistake to be comparable to treaties leading to the First World War. Europeans being daft and hillbilly regarding Russia shouldn’t be allowed to draft the USA into their prefered spiral of idiocy.
Europe with rational diplomacy could easily bring the war to a halt with an understanding from Russia that they won’t one day attack West of the Dnepro except to support Transnistria perhaps.
Paper agreements don’t guarantee peace or prevent war- good social relations and a lack of paranoia do that. A guarantee to engage Russia to fight World War Three is stupid. If a future President wants to start a war with anyone he won’t need a paper to do that; just a rational reason and lack of imagination for finding peace.
” It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliance with any portion of the foreign world. ” – George Washington, Farewell Address to the People of the United States | Monday, September 19, 1796
