You rightfully pleaded with Biden in February 2022 to seek a diplomatic solution and we urgently need you to do that again.

“Let us wage a moral and political war against war itself, so that we can cut military spending and use that money for human needs.”It is so good to see you standing in solidarity with UAW workers and their historic strike. No one can ever deny that you are a true champion of the working class. However, we implore you to take your solidarity one step further and use your agency to push for diplomacy and peace in Ukraine.

That is from a speech you delivered to President Biden on February 10, 2022, right before Russia invaded Ukraine. You went on to predict anin Ukraine. And now, within a few months of the two-year anniversary, your predictions have been proven true. “..we should be absolutely clear about who is most responsible for this looming crisis: Russian President Vladimir Putin.”“A simplistic refusal to recognize the complex roots of the tensions in the region undermines the ability of negotiators to reach a peaceful resolution.

It’s never too late for diplomacy. It’s never too late to save the lives of people and protect the planet. Most wars end with negotiations, the only question is how many people have to be killed and maimed before those negotiations happen? How many more, Bernie? You should know as well as anyone that war has unintended consequences. But don’t take our word for it—

You were right. And with regard to soldiers, in August the New York Times reported the total number of Ukrainian and Russian troops killed or wounded since the war began was nearing a staggering 500,000.“The sanctions against Russia that would be imposed as a consequence of its actions, and Russia’s threatened response to those sanctions, could result in massive economic upheaval – with impacts on energy, banking, food, and the day to day needs of ordinary people throughout the entire world.

I think it is helpful to consider this: One of the precipitating factors of this crisis, at least from Russia’s perspective, is the prospect of an enhanced security relationship between Ukraine and the United States and Western Europe, including what Russia sees as the threat of Ukraine joining the North Atlantic Treaty Alliance , a military alliance originally created in 1949 to confront the Soviet Union.
