Historian Niall Ferguson says the U.S. is in the midst of a second Cold War with China--and the U.S. needs a more effective deterrence strategy to prevail. “Nowhere is it written in the laws of history, America always wins cold wars.”

☢️ We gave up nukes for peace. They gave us war. Street interviews in Lviv show a painful truth: most Ukrainians believe giving up nuclear weapons was a mistake. They’re not wrong. We were told to disarm in exchange for “security guarantees” under the Budapest Memorandum. Instead, we got occupation, genocide, and betrayal. Ukraine honored its word. The West didn’t. And now we’re paying the price in blood. Would Russia have dared to invade a nuclear Ukraine? Would cities be in ruins? Children dead? Millions displaced? They say, “It was the right thing to do.” Yes — if the world kept its promise. But it didn’t. #Ukraine #Ukrainians NATO The White House Keir Starmer

Historian Ferguson: We are in Cold War II. China has taken the place the USSR used to occupy. That’s the dominant strategic reality. Many misread Trump and misread the world. It’s not about Europe, except that Europe can’t help Ukraine effectively without the United States. 1/

Ukraine 🇺🇦 signed the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons in 1991 and the Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances in 1994. Ukraine gave up its nuclear deterrence for peace in the world. Russia abused this, and has slaughtered Ukrainians. Let Ukraine fight!

In the course of 26 years, Putin has broken 190 deals - military analyst Michael Clarke. "The biggest one of all, I suppose, was 1994, the Budapest Memorandum, which is when Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons that it had inherited from the old Soviet Union, and Ukraine was the one country that could have used them," he said in an interview with Sky News.
