Ukrainian crisis
With Secretary
of State John Kerry joining incoming Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter as
well as Republican Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham in publicly supporting U.S.
efforts to supply lethal arms to Ukraine’s government to aid it in its war
against separatist rebels and Russian troops in eastern Ukraine, it may look
like a bipartisan consensus is emerging behind the idea.
Unfortunately, bipartisan
approaches based on political convenience and wishful thinking—rather than
clear foreign-policy logic—can be quite costly.
