Funny how they're not interested in peace when it comes to Ukraine. Instead they're pumping as much arms as they can into there & encouraging other nations to do the same.

The WhiteHouse / POTUS / JoeBiden must mind its business. No country advices the US on how to deal with their racist oppressive selves towards black Americans. ALLOW COUNTRIES TO SORT OUT THEIR CHALLENGES WITHOUT PrincipalMurderer US' involvement.
