No more half-measures

No more half-measures,
Weasel-words undercutting,
Fearing escalations,
Limited sanctions, appeasement,
Too timid to act…
 
Now is the moment, clarity,
For resolve, for vision,
Victory for Ukraine,
Defeat of the enemy,
Our only choice.

"We are committed to supporting #Ukraine and paving the way
for a just and lasting #peace in #Europe"
Language matters.
#NATO should state unequivocally, 
"We are committed to #Ukraine's #victory and creating a just and lasting #peace in #Europe."

“The United States will not let Ukraine fail.
This coalition will not let Ukraine fail, and
