I hate to give her credit for anything. But she’s correct. It won’t be long after withdrawal, and that place will revert right back to the way it was before the US arrived there. We’ll be right back there intervening before Christmas.
Why would we involve ourselves in a stone age society 1000s of miles across a big ocean? Or for that matter in a fairly modern society such as Ukraine?
Uhhh,,,,,,opiates.
Ukraine? Uhh.....oil and gas.
I am not sure why their opiate production concerns us, and anyway we haven't stopped it after spending a few $Trillion. As to Ukraine's oil, what concern is that. Let Russia and the other neighbors sort that out. We need to not be enemies or allies with any of them. As Charles de Gaulle once said "France doesn't have friends. It has interests". Our huge multi trillion dollar debt is mostly due to our overseas adventures starting over a century ago. Who benefitted besides the central bankers that now have a stranglehold on us.
