Plans to stop Russia show NATO and the West are in denial
Opinions being what they are, I found this cogent if only because I agree with it. That said, I am not sure that "stopping Putin" is important at all. As the author, Masha Gessen, admits, it is possible that no good outcomes are attainable, only worse or less bad.
I believe it was Joe Biden who was in Poland earlier this year to reinforce the US support of Poland's defense. God help them.
