It's not up to Biden. You can't appease a madman like Putin, it's simply not possible. Give him Ukraine because he threatens nukes and then he starts targeting the other Baltic states. And then what if fat leader in North Korea gets the same idea? Would you let him have all of the Korean peninsula if he threatens Seoul with a nuke? How about China demanding the US leave Taiwan or they nuke Taipei? If you give in to one lunatic's demands simply for threatening nuclear war, then the entire planet goes to #### regardless
