You sound like a Rachel Maddow pull string doll.

Biden is losing US allies faster than any President in US History.

Mexican president slams NATO policy in Ukraine
yesterday

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s president slammed NATO’s policy on the Russian invasion of Ukraine on Monday, calling it “immoral.”

President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s did not mention NATO or the United States by name, but his comments were the latest example of his party’s ambiguous stance on the invasion.

Mexico has voted to condemn the invasion, but refused to join in sanctions on Russia.

López Obrador said Monday that the allies’ policy was equivalent to saying “I’ll supply the weapons, and you supply the dead. It is immoral.”

“How easy it is to say, ’Here, I’ll send you this much money for weapons,” Lopez Obrador said. “Couldn’t the war in Ukraine have been avoided? Of course it could.”

In March, a half-dozen legislators from López Obrador’s Morena party helped create a congressional “Mexico-Russia Friendship Committee.”

The Morena party said “we respect the freedom of thought of our members” after a youth group apparently affiliated with the party sent an open letter to the Russian ambassador supporting the invasion.

but if we lose Mexico and the rest of Latin America, we can always reach out to the most oppressive, despotic regime in the world.

President Joe Biden will visit Saudi Arabia next month for bilateral talks and meet with the country's de facto leader, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, as part of an itinerary that includes Israel and the West Bank, a senior administration official said.

The trip comes as the president seeks to bring down rising gas prices caused in part by U.S. and European Union sanctions against Russian oil exports over its invasion of Ukraine. Biden has denied that the long-discussed visit to Saudi Arabia would primarily be aimed at getting the Saudis to pump more oil, but other U.S. officials have acknowledged that oil is an important factor.

Biden will address human rights, but the visit is largely aimed at repairing relations after Biden in 2019 referred to Saudi Arabia as a “pariah” state for the brutal murder of Saudi-born journalist Jamal Khashoggi, a regime critic, administration officials have said. When Biden took office he authorized the declassification of a CIA investigation’s conclusion that the crown prince was ultimately responsible for the murder.
