.
The people who control billions do NOT let the little guy siphon off billions.
They siphon it themselves.
Your silly spin falls completely apart right there.
The bulk of aid is not in dollars but
Written off weapons, or weapons purchases to the u.s. military industrial complex , which ukraine administration never sees.
Zelensky is as corrupt as any other politician blue, red, or purple.
But this entire crap fest isn't one politicians doing.
Your war hammer rhetoric is ridiculous as well.
Russia, a major superpower with overwhelming armed forces including air , has been stalled out logistically 100 kilometers into another countries territory for 11 months.
You think ANY other power would be?
In a nation bordering them?
They fundamentally cant use air or are unwilling to accept those lose rates.
They cant supply logistically beyond 100 kilometers off major rail centers.
Its obvious to a brain dead commie even.
They were forced into mobilization to keep from being ousted entirely.
That might be a hard pill for you to swallow seeing how your career was in nuke subs with main goal.of neutralizing that threat.
I get that.
But it's today cuffy,decades later.
In a world that russia is calculating they cant use nuclear force in relation to the desired goals.
And it seems apparently their main strenght and deterrent.
They are left whining in international press that ukraine is playing too tough in this conflict.
(Want a link to their admin staff words?)
All while insisting Ukraine not strike within russia, and continuing to target civilian power plant infrastructure within ukraine.
(Smart move by the way ,but one done while they cant work a viable solution otherwise)
Are there nukes pointed at russia in Estonia? Latvia?
Nope.
So you jumping to Ukraine would have nato membership and nukes pointed at Russia was a huge stretch.
But hey putins actions now have ramped up a 1000 kilometer front on the Finnish border turning NATO.
Putin warned*
Yeap he did.
What's he going to do now?
Invade Finland?
Ukraine,the usa,nato et al are not snowy clean by any stretch.
But this isnt fought on russian territory in some direct attack on Russian security .
Its fought in ukraine,on ukrainian territory.
So spin the blame is all people have.
The end result is still
Russia invadedAnd right or wrong the fall out of that action is going to leave a mark.
There is some hypocrisy there on the nato side and a freely admit it..
But
Every case putinistas make is riddled with hypocrisy as well.
But this .. but that...
it all ultimately ends with
But
Russia invaded
But Finland.*crickets*
The entire scope has changed by one mans foolish actions and russia is NOT more secure today because of it.
Turkey continues to deny them additional access to the black sea.
Sevestopol is untenable as a naval port at this time.
Murmansk usefulness will soon be compromised some with Finland's entry into NATO.
They lost a flagship with some of thier best AA and AS.
Wouldnt be as big a deal if they could replace it in a timely fashion,but they cant.
Cold reality for your old adversary?
they cant carry an air war.
They struggle like hell with a floppy navy and no working aircraft carrier.
They have flopped logistically for damn near a year on land anywhere beyond air support from thier own airspace and interior rail distribution.
They seemingly have good missle, drone and sub capability.
So the fall back position is nuke.
To me their ability to threaten Europe is solely nuke,economic, and up to the point the train rail gauge changes.
Right there they would lose any ability to go further.
If ukraine had the foresight to change all rail gauge a decade back, Russia would likely already be pushed out of Ukraine entirely now.
Deny it ,but the current map speaks volumes.
And the Ukrainian AFU are cutting their teeth on winter,not fearing it.
You think half a million Russian troops are going to overrun roughly 600k ukranian troops in defensive positions?
This ain't sub life.
The civilian aspect is everything, and vital to a willingness of the AFU to defend , so theres that and that's why russia is targeting civilian heat and water.
Demanding ukraine cant retaliate in kind.pure unadulterated pussies and your half ass cheerleading them

all because you hate Democrats lol.
Boggles the mind.
