That the United States handicapped Europe and made them overly reliant on us after WWII, and now a single US president being wishy-washy on their defense has forced them to play catch-up on their own safety as quickly as possible.
We MADE them reliant on us? Lmao every single US president for decades has begged Europe to invest more in their own defence and pull their own weight. It's not our fault they spent tax dollars on healthcare instead of bombs.
We've given them money that they then use to buy our own equipment , I'm aware. And again, Ukraine is not fighting with a single US soldier which is what I mean by "alone"
They use that money for more than that as they haven't done a single audit and their elite are getting richer and richer. And they haven't been required to buy or pay back a thing...so they get our weapons for free...weapons they didn't already have
so Russia gets to determine who gets to be a part of an alliance that they themselves aren't in? Sounds like that shouldn't matter since NATO quite literally was birthed out of a desire to defend against Russia after WWII

Muted now
Now theyr'e facing the hopeless odds they had been able to deny
You did say that and we've given them more than equipment. You've lost the argument.
