Well said, but the Western Values stand despite the narrative. There are too many places in the world to defend, but this one hits very close to home.

No one had expected another hitler in Europe.

The only good part in this case is that Russia is not all that strong. They are said to have the economy of the BeNeLux, and that was before the sanctions. They also are playing the game the worst ways possible.

I am proud of the Western World and its reaction against Russia's total war. I am convinced the defeat of bullyism is going to reverberate for decades and make this world a much better place.
