Why America Should NOT Be Involved In the Ukraine War | #17
Recently, many Americans have rallied in defense of Ukraine following the Russian invasion. They have been posting things like Ukrainian flags adorned with hearts to express solidarity with the fighters and refugees affected by the conflict in Ukraine.However, what most American people may not be aware of is that Ukraine is plagued by deep-seated corruption throughout its entire hierarchy. For centuries, Russia has exerted significant influence over Ukraine, and there seem to be very few, if any, redeeming qualities to Ukraine’s current state.In this episode of “Ideas Have Consequences,” Larry revisits a discussion he had a few episodes ago concerning his adopted daughter, Sasha. She endured immense hardship from spending 11 years within Ukraine’s orphanage system. Throughout the adoption process, Larry found himself needing to bribe numerous government officials to facilitate Sasha’s adoption. Larry delves into these experiences and provides insights into Ukraine’s history, shedding light on why America’s role in this unjustified war could be more complex than it appears.
