What signal does this send to Ukraine, Georgia and a host of other former Soviet satellites who look to America and NATO for protection from their powerful neighbour? The impending cancellation of Third Site is a shameful abandonment of America’s friends in eastern and central Europe, and a slap in the face for those who actually believed a key agreement with Washington was worth the paper it was written on.

The USA has ALWAYS been an unreliable friend. I remember, as should any little insurrection, the ’57 Hungarian Revolution. Our Hungarian neighbor cried at the table with my father and uncles about how the State Department sold them out. At your own peril, trust ANY politician’s promise.
