 Yeah, Biden couldn't do an interview like this, and it would be pointless anyway. You'd have to talk to the real puppet-masters behind the scenes, possibly Victoria Nuland or Susan Rice (or even other Deep State denizens buried more deeply in The Swamp) to get the U.S.-NATO rationale.

Perhaps along the national self-determination line of argument, one could argue that #Ukraine has the right to join NATO if it wants to. Russia saying that it can't is like the U.S. trying to dictate what nations can and can't have nukes. But I do understand Russia not wanting missiles pointed at it right on her border, just like the U.S. objected to Soviet missiles stationed in Cuba during the Cold War. Perhaps if the Ukraine were to join NATO they should agree not to do this.

But the real rationale for US-NATO actions in this conflict probably has to do with stirring up trouble for #Russia in order to keep the Military-Industrial-Complex gravy-train alive, as well as hiding the money-laundering and bioweapons development that the Deep State had going on there...
