Actually quite a large fraction of the US is just fine with The Ukraine's draft UN resolution on Russian aggression. Even #47 had to admit that Russia, not The Ukraine started this whole ~~shitshow~~ war.

FYI - "the" should not be used when referring to Ukraine.

β€œUkraine is a country,” says William Taylor, who served as the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine from 2006 to 2009. β€œThe Ukraine is the way the Russians referred to that part of the country during Soviet times … Now that it is a country, a nation, and a recognized state, it is just Ukraine. And it is incorrect to refer to the Ukraine, even though a lot of people do it.”
