‘We cannot survive’ without foreign weapons, say Ukrainian soldiers fearing looming Trump cuts

HALF! We should get it all.

Trump says US 'pretty close' to minerals deal with Ukraine​

He said the United States wanted to recoup the billions of dollars in military aid Washington has given to Ukraine in its fight to repel Russian invaders. He said the United States is asking for rare earths, oil or "anything we can get."

It's really only a question on whether or not America can still defeat Russia?

Trump will behave accordingly or he's get a surprise visit from the CIA.

America's foreign policy is a lot bigger than Trump!

Can we defeat Russia? That depends on which gets the most nukes off first. Us, or Russia+China+North Korea.

Trump is our foreign policy. And, the Ukraine had better learn not to bite the hand that feeds them. The Biden gifts are over. We aren't borrowing money and then giving it away anymore. Continue to rag on our President, Zelensky, and you can buy your weapons from Germany. Otherwise, show us where our money has been going and what are you willing to give us in return. We aren't your bank, you evil little prick...

Personally, I think we should just call it even given our federal government's role in overthrowing Ukraine's legitimately elected government in 2014 and leading them down the primrose path of thinking they were going to be admitted into NATO. The United States Federal Government is partially to blame for this whole imbroglio.

I agree other than who's the evil prick?

Ukraine should have done it's research on the United States. You see every 2 years we have elections and so you can really only count on us for 2 years. Which means you can't count on us.

And seriously, we made you do it? Sorry, Super Powers get away with shit like this all the time. Still you owe us if you want our continued support.

Every country is being taken over by corporations. It's just USA corporations are going to own some of Ukraine. Like China does Africa. What? We can't do it too?

Take your pick. Zelensky vs Putin = evil vs evil and none of our business, yet there we are right in the middle of it.

I see the geo political benefits to having Ukraine on our side not Putin's. For one, they want to be on our side. Two, them mineral rights. Trump's got the right idea. If you want our help, pay for it. We will become wealthy like never before. Like China's doing now.

I don't think Zelensky is evil. Before he became President he was a comedian. I believe he played the drums with his dick. Putin is KGB. Very bad. If you don't want something to spread, it's that. Even though it may say it's Capitalism, it's not. And I hope Trump beats Putin. But Ukraine is going to have to pay us.

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

Their friends and allies in Europe are ramping us as quickly as they can.

America saved Putin's bacon (Russia was right on the brink when Trump changed sides), but hopefully Ukraine can get enough help to keep the invaders at bay until Russia has to look for a better deal.

Perhaps Trump will bomb a few of our former allies to change their minds on helping Zelensky.

Russia was on the brink. That’s funny.

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

These poor leftards are going to scream at the sky when Trump brokers the deal to end the war.

I agree that Zelensky's free ride is over. He just agreed to Trump's plan.
