The secret service is probably not the elite agency people think it is. I bet once you get that job to protect a FPOTUS complacency creeps in. Since there hasn’t been an attack on former presidents on US soils since a long while before this incident. And it’s the other agencies that do most of the intel work. Also weren’t agents caught fucking prostitutes and beating up locals while being completely wasted when they were escorting the POTUS on a state visit a couple of years ago. Very professional wow.
So because they are corrupt they have to surrender to Russia and the West isn’t allowed to help them defend themselves? That’s like saying that a person deserves to get shot by the police just because he has a criminal record.
Also the EU already approved Ukraine’s candidate status for accession and accession negotiations officially opened this year. So if Ukraine does things right they will be a member of the EU in ten years give or take. Guess what article 42.7 in the Treaty of Lisbon is. It’s a mutual defensive clause. So end of the day they wil be protected by the bloc whether they are a NATO member or not.
