I don't know if it's true, but I would totally do that if I were in command of American strategic operations in Europe. I mean, fuck yes I would like to have an allied border state a few miles out from St. Petersburg / Leningrad.
If' I'm barely holding back Communism in Central and Southern Europe (Italy's election is a fucking nail-biter and makes the Communist party a massive minority, Germany is a divided state that's being quickly armed to the teeth, Greece and Turkey is my best option in the Balkans, etc)... then fuck yes I'm sending money to the only remotely competent and anti-Communist country in Eastern Europe that has a hard border with the Soviets, and nearly won a war against them without support.
Unfortunately, "Social Democrats" are Fabian Socialists, and the State Department is a Fabian Socialist entity; so the "Social Democrats" were always going to be the party that got funded.
"It's OK when we do it" is the slogan of the GAE.
That's so gae.
