I don't normally like to type shit on my phone, plus the orc lovers hate it.
Drives them nuts..
I dont care about Ukraine
And yet here you are to tell us all about how little you care
Cool story bro...
You would have to be blind not to see how this war benefits America and the west. I mean if we don't care about the ethical/morality around it (I think these are important) but from a simple strategic point of view denying Russia, a geopolitical rival, access to more resources and making for a strong ally right on the border of said geo political rival. Finally getting field testing for weapons that were literally designed against Russia, showing the US's stance on defending other nations, which means we hopefully won't have to get into a far larger war down the road. What do you think is going to happen if Ukraine falls to Russia, this shit continues and possibly on multiple fronts in the future. So its better to squash this now or it will continue. We seen what appeasement does in 2014 and in the past.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
President Joe Biden has vowed continued US support for Ukraine, after further military funding was excluded from a last-minute congressional budget deal.
Senior Senate leaders from both parties released a joint statement signalling their intention to "ensure the US government continues to provide" support to Ukraine in the coming weeks.
But the move - which came just nine days after President Volodymyr Zelensky flew to Washington to plead for further support - reflects increasing opposition from hard-right Republicans in the House of Representatives to the war in recent months.
Ukraine's foreign ministry says the "flow of US aid won't change" with $3bn of humanitarian and military support set to still arrive, but it concedes "ongoing programmes" might be affected.
The growing scepticism from some Republicans and the recent election victory for a populist, pro-Moscow party in Slovakia are concerning for both Ukraine and the European Union.
In an interview with the BBC in Kyiv, the EU's most senior diplomat, Josep Borrell, said he was "worried" by the latest decision on funding for Ukraine by the US Congress.
