... Hallam told Billboard in 1993 about the lyrics, "The song 'Connected' is about human beings and the lack of connection there is between anything today. It's about the way everyone tries to categorize everything.
The way every race is trying to separate from each other."[7] ...
"Biden did absolutely nothing to promote diplomacy."
You are willfully stupid.
And you're proud of how stupid you are too.
This is just who you are as a person.
President Biden's diplomatic efforts to prevent a Russian invasion of Ukraine were extensive and multifaceted, involving direct communication with world leaders, coordinated international condemnation, and repeated warnings to Russia. Despite these efforts, the invasion occurred on February 24, 2022, leading to a shift in strategy focused on escalation management and sustained support for Ukraine without direct U.S. military engagement.
Biden engaged in high-level diplomatic talks, including a 50-minute video conference with French President Emmanuel Macron and meetings with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Russian President Vladimir Putin, aiming to avert conflict through dialogue.
The administration pursued intense diplomacy, warning Russia repeatedly that an invasion would lead to severe consequences, including powerful sanctions and export controls, while emphasizing that the U.S. and NATO were not a threat to Russia.
Despite claims by Russia of troop withdrawals from Ukraine's border, U.S. intelligence did not verify these movements, and Biden maintained that an invasion remained "distinctly possible" as of February 2022.
The U.S. worked to rally international support, securing broad condemnation of Russia's actions in the UN General Assembly and coordinating sanctions and military aid with allies.
After the invasion, Biden established clear boundaries for U.S. involvement, stating the U.S. would not send troops to fight in Ukraine, would not support attacks on Russian territory, and would not seek to oust Putin, aiming to manage escalation and prevent a broader war.
By 2023, internal discussions within the Biden administration and European allies indicated a quiet shift toward preparing for a potential negotiated end to the war, focusing on strengthening Ukraine's defensive posture and rebuilding its defense industry, though official policy still stated support for Ukraine's goal of full territorial restoration.
