Do you support your country giving Ukraine 17.6 billion a year?

[Anonymous]

yes

no focus on our own country

[WindAtMyBack]

Tentatively yes. I think the world needs to take a good hard look at whether Ukraine can actually win, even with massive aide. If Russia is serious, and it's looking like they are, I don't think any amount of aide can win the war for Ukraine. I think Russia would win by attrition.

I've thought from the start that the rest of the world will allow Ukraine to be the sacrificial lamb. They will not be willing to do what it takes to beat Russia, which is direct military involvement.

For now, I support more aide. I support very strict sanctions. I support the same sanctions against any country that supports or trades with Russia. I support an information campaign to let the people of Russia know why this is happening. Then if Russia is kicked out, I support making them pay for everything, including all the military costs, and rebuilding Ukraine. I support aide from the rest of the world to help the Russian people who should not be made to suffer because of their leaders. Over time Russia would need to pay that back also.

Then, I support making friends with Russia instead of being so damned adversarial all the time. A lot of this is because of Russia itself, but a lot of is is because too many people don't realize the cold war ended 30 years ago.

The only reason we’re giving it to them is because they have so much dirt on our politicians that it would be political and if Hillary has anything to say about it literal suicide if that information got out. Also as most people are aware, wars are some of the greatest money laundering operations and human history. Especially in a country which has for decades been western politicians money washing machine.

[alice55]

Yes and anyway i prefer this money being sent to them than being stolen by corrutp politician

[KostasKouvalis]

Absolutely not. It's not our war. It's our hard earned tax dollars that they have no intention of giving back. If our politicians want to be social justice warriors, they can fund them from their own pockets. I'm sure Hilary Clinton could do without one of her 4 mansions

No one is "giving" Ukraine anything. All that money is being loaned to Ukraine - with interest.

The Ukrainians are fucking stupid to think they could just "join" the West rather than being it's dirty pawn. Did they learn nothing from Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, South America and everywhere else the Americans have "helped" before?

[Sixgunsound]

Do you include all that lend lease equipment we sent to the UK during both wars, as well as all the money and men sent over to help un-fuck your problems?

[Sixgunsound]

Largest single contributor of cash equipment and intelligence to NATO and the United Nations peacekeeping forces?

[Anonymous]

Hell to the phuk no. We have people in our own country who legitimately need help but can’t get it. Joe Biden is a POS, dude should kick it already. It makes no sense fighting for someone else is country because Russia invaded their borders when our borders are being invaded as well. These people don’t give a shit about us, wouldn’t be surprised if they’re doing illegal shit through Ukraine.

[goaded]

Whatever the amount, it would just be until Russia leaves Ukraine.

[Asker]

they will never leave Ukraine. they fought in Afghanistan for 9 years.

[Anonymous]

I'm more concerned about Biden's decision to deploy combat troops In defense of European Nato nations. I know, it doesn't really change the situation. But it increases a potential for escalation.

[Cubus]

I support my country sending money to Ukraine. We would lose much more money, if Russians enter my country.

[LimitedBenefits101]

We should focus on our own country but go brandon and his administration are clueless, billions to ukraine and yet they ain't winning.

[exitseven]

no, it will bankrupt the country.
