It follows astonished reactions from global leaders after Trump and his vice president verbally berated Ukraine's president in a heated and extraordinary White House meeting.
This debacle has also shown how fundamentally flawed our strategy of hoping America or Australia will help us, should a foreign power come sniffing around in our waters really is.
The US armed forces built fortifications both during ww2, and earlier during the Russian scare, here in NZ, I very much doubt they’d do that today.
Both them and Australia are today increasingly transactional in their interactions with the outside world, and the US in particular will likely want something in return for their help.
You are the one with your nose up the USA’s back end.
We got nothing the USA needs or wants. Certainly nothing Canada doesn’t have. The USA doesn’t care about us at all. We can’t rely on them so we best make make friends with as many people as possible, maybe one of them will feel sorry enough to help us when the USA decides it wants the south island as a vacation destination for Elon or Zuck or Theil.
