Ursula von der Leyen has called for "comprehensive" security guarantees for Ukraine that can deter future Russian aggression. #EuropeNews

    My only wish is that we had all done this sooner. We could have given Ukraine the tools it needed two years ago. Hundreds, maybe even a thousand tanks, APCs, AA, artillery vehicles. As many fighter jets as we could rearm and train people on. Cruise missiles to penetrate and take down Russian supply lines. We waited too long, until Ukrainians got their armies ground down and America turned isolationist again.

    It’s not too late, but we really shouldn’t have waited and drip fed our allies. :/

      Yeah let’s give more subsidies to weapon manufacturers. We clearly need it more than hospitals and schools.

            Yeah your grandma is the only important life on earth. Fuck all the Ukrainian grandmothers and their families whose lives don’t matter at all, every tax dollar needs to go to your family first.

            See I can “paraphrase” you too. Sorry for your loss.

              Don’t feed the trolls. That’s a 9 hour old account impersonating someone else.

        Will hospitals and schools stop Russia from annexing more countries?

          No. You know what would have stopped russia from annexing more countries?

          Not empowering fascists there. Remember when the US sent Yeltsin?

        Almost not worth living (if not for pizza and weed gummies).

      Putin isn’t exactly a peace dove either… And he’s not stopping unless someone pushes back hard enough, it’s the Russian mentality
