We gave them assurances; their translation said guarantees. They aren't the first to be let down by an agreement with the west, only the latest.

It is up to Biden now to live up to his tough talk of Putin fearing him (from during the election, if you have forgotten) and other western leaders to find an end that doesn't involve bending over.

Why are you singling out "the west"?!? AIUI, Russia also signed that agreement.

Yup, Russia did, and Putin's excuses for the invasion are weak at best. The peace is broken. Does that excuse the West's inaction?
