The United States told Russia to go fuck themselves on the “security demand” that Ukraine never be allowed to join NATO, but offered a “diplomatic path” out of the crisis Russia created for itself by being all snowflakey about having a semi-functioning democracy on its border, AFP reports. US Secretary of State Tony Blinken, who so far has not lived up to his name while staring in face of Russian hostility, told reporters “It sets out a serious diplomatic path forward should Russia choose it,” and that he plans to meet with Putin’s dog Sergei Lavrov in Geneva within the next few days.
