The US's choice of Budapest as the place to possibly decide Ukraine's fate looks to many familiar with the issue like obvious trolling of Ukrainians. The #BudapestMemorandum of 1994 was a (if not THE) key US mistake that allowed Russia to start its war against Ukraine in 2014.

Maybe it will be reported in worldwide mass media tomorrow. Maybe it won't.

My only disagreement with realists is that many are not. They prefer promoting a theory to studying reality. The claim to be a realist is a pretext for ignoring empirical research. These realists already know how the world really works. Data is unnecessary, discussion pointless.

Exactly 86 years ago, the arguably worst agreement in human history was signed - a friendship treaty between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. Most people do not know about this second Hitler Stalin Pact, perhaps, because the Kremlin does not want them to know.
