The U.S. should have two goals with respect to Ukraine: 1. Expulsion of all #Russian invaders from every square inch of Ukrainian territory (including Crimea); 2. Admission of #Ukraine into NATO. Everything we do needs to be in support of achieving these two objectives.

It's a damned shame we didn't provide Ukraine with many more M-1 Abrams tanks and M-2 Bradley IFVs. Even in cases where Bradleys were disabled on the battlefield, its soldiers managed to survive.
