Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Kyiv‘s allies have committed billions upon billions in military and humanitarian aid to help Ukrainian Armed Forces fight off Russian occupiers.
Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Kyiv‘s allies have committed billions upon billions in military and humanitarian aid to help Ukrainian Armed Forces fight off Russian occupiers.
The Biden administration’s latest request for a fresh $24billion aid package is the subject of a bitter spending battle that could see Congress trigger a government shutdown with skeptical Republicanlawmakers wary of sending yet more funds to Kyiv.
Some Republicans say the money could be better spent on US border security, while there are also concerns about the pace of Kyiv’s counteroffensive and that corruption in Ukraine means the money will be squandered.
Meanwhile, Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said this week his country ‘is no longer transferring weapons to Ukraine’ amid a row over Poland‘s ban on Ukrainian grain imports to protect the interests of its farmers.
With this in mind, MailOnline recaps the level of funding sent to Ukraine so far.
It was too difficult to copy and paste from the DM. Click here for the whole article, including pics, vids and graphics:
We had hoped that the fiends would have been expelled long before the US election got into top gear, but that seems a long shot now.
In the event of a catastrophic cut or even total discontinuation of US military support, in Zel’s shoes I would not want to have to rely on the EU to take the baton.
There is a solution though and Ukraine must push for it as hard as possible:
The $350-500 bn of putinaZi cash that is sequestered.
Ignore what the lawyers say, millions of people’s lives are at stake. Give all the cash to Ukraine to use as it sees fit to enable a swift victory.
It’s just got to be done.
PS, look at the list of donators and then see how mean most of the world has been. Absolutely shocking.
Never ‘insult Poles again,’ Poland’s prime minister tells Ukraine’s Zelensky:

The putler lobby: the man who is being touted as a possible Trump DefSec is interviewed by Michael Savage. And it’s horrible :
Who is Michael Savage?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Savage
Wiki whitewashes Savage’s entire raison d’etre, which is to promote the cause of Russia and do everything he can to rubbish Ukraine.
If you Google “Michael Savage: Ukraine” you will see a litany of horror, including disgusting lies about Ukraine from his friend Col Magregor. Here is just one example of Savage’s lies :

Savage belongs in a dungeon with his friends Macgregor, Alex Jones, Laura Ingraham, Ron Paul and a whole load of other putinoid trash.
I was only sending a rudimentary explanation, thank you for further enlightening us on who and what he really is.
He is the Dugin to Trump’s putler and has been putting out vile Russian propaganda since at least 2014. So pally with Trump is he that he flew on AF1 and attended private dinners at Mar-A-Lago.
He’s Russian btw. Savage is a stage name. He’s one of a number of Russian media figures who masquerade as US patriots, such as Dmitry Simes and Fox employee Rebekkah Koffler. Another Fox employee; the loathsome, sneering kremlin shill Laura Ingraham, is a defacto Russian like Stalin and a friend of Savage. She speaks fluent Russian and has adopted Russian kids.
So don’t let the ruzzian Krembots tell you the USA is the only one paying for Putin’s war on Ukraine.
