He has since tried to reel this fat fish back in, but Governor Ron DeSantis demonstrated maximum foreign policy ignorance with this statement.
DeSantis dismisses Russian invasion of Ukraine as a ‘territorial dispute’
"Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) is dismissing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine as a “territorial dispute” and says protecting the European nation is not a vital U.S. interest, firmly putting the potential presidential candidate on the side of Donald Trump and at odds with top congressional Republicans."DeSantis is pandering to the GOP that doesn't think we should be in Ukraine, but his statements since show that he's trying to keep both sides confused while he turns Florida into Hungary.
He's out of his depth -- and is on a lot of other issues, too.
So here's some commentary reinforcing that.
"His [that would be DeSantis] implicit agreement with Russian President Vladimir Putin that Ukraine has no right to territorial integrity contradicts the view of 140 United Nations member countries and gives oxygen to the Russian propaganda effort."
