It implies they don’t want to take this stance but have been reluctantly coerced into it. No evidence of that. It's worse. They’re choosing this.msnbc.comOpinion | Trump echoes Kremlin propaganda that Ukraine is 'gambling with World War III'As Carl von Clausewitz wrote in the 19th century, “the aggressor is always peace-loving. ...
