But it was not meant to do that.This agreement is just one tile... you have the whole house still to do.
It is a nice LOCAL victory... wars often consist of many such small ones.
But it has some very important GLOBAL elements.
For instance, Ukrane and its President have demonstrated absence of any fear vis-a-vis a major world power. Zelensky exited the WH scandalous "reception" stronger.
He showed everyone he is not going to take shit from ANYONE.
What a ton of hardened steel character that little fighting Jew has!
Who would forget his "I don't need a ride, I need weapons!" standing tall in the street of a besieged Kiev!
That act almost single-handedly decided the first battle.
