Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) did not take kindly when asked on CNN about outgoing Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) comparing President Donald Trump's about-face on supporting Ukraine against the Russian invasion to the efforts by disgraced British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain to make peace with Nazi Germany.
Donald Trump has often asserted that the United States commands respect around the world only under his leadership. However, his latest message — a scathing attack on Ukraine and its president — has left observers worldwide and at home shocked and dismayed.
By Arnold J. Oliver  No sooner had the announcement about a new policy for Ukraine from the Trump administration been made than the cries of “appeasement! Munich! Hitler! Neville Chamberlain” began to ring out from almost all corners of the mediaverse.
As we enter negotiations to end Russia's war against Ukraine, we must understand our adversaries’ and our own objectives and strengths and weaknesses.
British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain secured what he thought was peace by acceding to Adolf Hitler’s wishes. Are we seeing the same in Ukraine?
Echoing Putin’s talking points, the war against Ukraine no longer is an unjustified aggression but was, as Trump has now declared, Kyiv’s fault. Ukraine has become the ultimate test that the liberal international order failed to pass.
IT’S almost 87 years since Neville Chamberlain returned from Munich with a self-satisfied smile on his face and a letter waving in his hand. He promised that it guaranteed peace in our time.
Chamberlain, the Prime Minister of Great Britain from 1937 to 1940, signed the Munich Agreement in 1938 allowing Nazi Germany to annex Czechoslovakia, which he predicted would guarantee “ peace for our time ” but which history has recalled as a failed attempt to appease German Fuhrer Adolf Hitler before the start of World War II.
Speakers denounced Russia's invasion of Ukraine and urged continued support for the embattled country and President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Professional, disciplined armies do not eat and sleep next to rotting piles of their own refuse.
Ukraine has stood as the barrier to Russia’s bid to reclaim dominance in Europe. Now, on the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion — despite grand proclamations of Western support and aid carefully measured to fall short of what would allow Ukraine to make gains — it finds itself further from victory than ever.
Foreign Minister Radek Sikorski of Poland said that Ukraine is too strong to be sold out by foreign powers. "The best guarantee for Ukraine is the almost million-man army, which is manning the foxholes and heroically resisting Russian aggression," he said on CNN's "Fareed Zakaria GPS" in an interview that aired Sunday.
