It’s not that pure and simple. We’ve let them down, but to characterise it as betrayal is a gross oversimplification.The west has betrayed Ukraine.
No ifs or buts.
Betrayal - pure and simple.
The west deserves to cease to exist as a coherent set of democratic entities.
What a future we have to not look forward to.
For a start, what do you mean by ‘the west’? Does that include Poland which has taken hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian refugees?
I think much of the western strategy has been informed and tempered by a desire for this not to escape out of control. This carries an inherent risk of miscalculation.
So there are ifs and buts.
