Ukraine - Take two

[eddiememphis]

I have yet to hear a compelling reason to side with Ukraine.

What is the tangible benefit of the United States backing Ukraine?

Another billion dollars today.

What is the US gaining by sending all this money? It is not a loan. It is not an investment.

How much have other NATO countries contributed?

NATO condemns in the strongest possible terms Russia's brutal and unprovoked war against Ukraine - which is an independent, peaceful and democratic country, and a close NATO partner. The Alliance calls on President Putin to stop this war immediately, withdraw all his forces from Ukraine and engage in genuine diplomacy.


Thanks, guys.

They contributed 3.8b euro since February. Either in weapons, humanitarian help, taking in refugees, and pledges for the reconstruction.

This is a war by proxy against Russia and we need to win it, so that we get rid of Putin and send a clear warning to china that the world can be united against bullies. We have a once in history opportunity to force a major political change in Russia… this is priceless.

Based on how ineffective we were for the first 2 weeks. I doubt Chi-Na is worried what our, or the worlds, response would be. Once they're on the island. They sure as ^&* ain't leaving .

Except they won?t get there? if Russia can?t roll into Ukraine how do you think china is going to land in Taiwan? Their military is even more corrupted than the Russian one? Their tanks are not maintained and their troop have low morale. Now, they are watching and learning from the Ukraine war. Not a good thing.
