It was Biden that goaded Ukraine into flaunting it's NATO ambitions while making it clear multiple times that America would not come to Ukraine's aid. Europe is really being screwed here from both sides, on principle they support democracy and self-determination but they are entirely dependent on the Americans to stand up for that.

    Why blame Biden for going along with the momentum when you can blame Obama for setting up the scenario with the coup in the first place?

    Obama didn't behave as weirdly as Biden. He facilitated neo-nazi's taking control of Ukraine's government and that prompted Russia to annex parts of Ukraine. The difference is that Obama behaved like is normal for an American president and it doesn't seem like war was his goal, Biden behaved incomprehensibly and was either deliberately pushing for war to further his own political ambitions or he was too senile to know what he was doing.
