national interests

However, if one turns to the United States, on which both the Ukrainian army’s fighting ability and Kiev’s political decisions largely depend, one has to wonder – why are they doing this? One may get the impression that this position of the U.S. is in their national interest – to further pump Ukraine with weapons, thereby delaying a special military operation on the part of Russia and weakening Moscow. To this must be added continued attempts to isolate Russia in the international arena (mostly unsuccessful) and constant information campaigns in the Western media.
