And how many Ukrainians died while Biden was in charge?
You, and Putin, seem to be forgetting a three-way treaty known as the 1994 Budapest Memorandum.
Essentially, Ukraine agreed to give up all its nuclear weapons to Russia in exchange for safety from a U.S. or Russian invasion. Russia's invasion of Ukraine violates that treaty. And as a signatory to that 1994 Budapest Memorandum, the U.S. has a definite interest in righting Putin's current wrongs.
In the final version of the deal, Russia promised not to attack Ukraine. While the U.S. and the U.K. assured Ukraine they would aid if it was attacked by Russia, that promised aid did not guarantee military support like a NATO country would receive.
In 2009, Russia and the U.S. announced that the assurances in the Budapest Memorandum would continue to remain in effect in the future.
Russia promised specifically NOT to invade Ukraine, and the U.S. promised specifically to ASSIST Ukraine if the treaty were ever violated. And that's what the U.S. had been doing until tRump trashed the treaty and switched to appeasement.
We libs want to see peace everywhere. What you want to see is distortions and fake news.
You can't even get the New York Post to agree with Trump hyperbole and that's saying a lot:
Russian President Vladimir Putin rejected President Trump’s proposal of a full, unconditional cease-fire with Ukraine on Tuesday, but agreed to halt attacks on “energy and infrastructure” — sectors Kyiv has recently, and successfully, targeted.
Elsewhere in the two-hour phone call, the Russian president demanded that Trump cut all military and intelligence assistance to Ukraine, according to a readout from the Kremlin.
A White House summary of the call did not mention the bold ask and American aid continued to flow Tuesday. Trump in a Fox News interview denied the leaders discussed aid “at all.”

Dude… Putin has already violated the energy infrastructure ceasefire lol
He literally violated it within an hour, after Russia struck the energy sector in Slovyansk, Donetsk region.
Trump is a joke, who has accomplished nothing. In fact, he made things a little worse, and as a direct result Ukrainians have died.
@Convivial Yes we do know what Trump has promised to put on the table! Trump is putting the entire USA on the table for Russia's consumption so that Trump can become just like his mentor and hero, Vladimir Putin. Why can you not see that?
But you forget that the guy you elected to POTUS is actually working for Putin, not the USA ...and he's certainly not working for right-wing MAGA-muffins like you who voted Trump into the Presidency.
Pretend all you like but Trump has not actually accomplished anything with Ukraine. Him and Putin, two autocratic dictators, had a chat on the phone through a pair of interpreters and nothing they spoke about has been cast in stone.
