+ Underground Railroad in the South; clean energy protectionism US Edition - Today's top story: US will give military tanks to Ukraine, signaling Western powers' long-term commitment to thwarting Russia [View in browser]( US Edition | 26 January 2023 [The Conversation] [The Conversation]( Political discussion in the U.S. this week has been dominated by recent mass shootings and discoveries of classified documents in the personal possessions of President Joe Biden and former Vice President Mike Pence. But Biden’s Jan. 25 announcement that the country would send 31 military tanks to Ukraine to help the country fight its war against Russia was a reminder to American citizens that the nation is also dealing with some very serious matters abroad. “This is about helping Ukraine defend and protect Ukrainian land. It is not an offensive threat to Russia. There is no offensive threat to Russia. If Russian troops return to Russia, where they belong, this war would be over today. That is what we all want,” Biden said at the White House.
