Did other countries involve themselves in the American Revolution and the United States Civil War? both of which were internal American Civil Conflicts?
Of course they did!
As the Colonials fought the British in the American Revolutionary War, the French helped with training and weapons. The Germans, Hessian, soldiers were hired by the British to help put down the Colonists.
Today, there are millions of Ukrainians living in Russia and millions of Russians living in Ukraine. Russia has said it was interested in Protecting the Russians that Ukrainians have been attacked and killed in eastern Ukraine. To make it more confusing, the modern country of Ukraine was formed by Referendum after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. And this modern conflict in Ukraine saw two regions hold referendums. And those two Ukrainian regions with majority Russian population, decided to be a part of Russia again. So although Ukraine’s past referendum was Okay, Modern referendums in breakaway regions that broke away last time, are not okay now.
Why…
Because NATO… Was angry and doesn’t approve. And the United States is the de-facto leader of NATO, and the United States doesn’t approve. The United States is involving itself into the wars of others… But What can be expected when the United States goes through another Civil Conflict. When the American People have decided to combat their government in the same way that all populations eventually combat their governments.
Will foreign countries be more or less inclined to involve themselves into our conflict by supporting one side or the other? Will other countries provide weapons or training to those opposed to the US Government.
