Well, it’s official. 

The week started with Biden finally approving Ukraine’s use of long-range weapons in Russia. And while I ultimately believe it was the right decision, I worry it's too little too late. 

Unfortunately, it’s emblematic of the sad reality that the United States wasn’t able to deter a Russian invasion. For these two and a half years Russia has been the one largely deterring the United States and NATO from providing adequate assistance to Ukraine on a strategic basis. 

This failure to provide weapons in a strategic manner is a major contributing factor to the military gridlock we are seeing play out now in that region. 

Let me know what you think. Should the United States continue supplying weapons to Ukraine on a strategic basis?
