It is true, but it is also heartbreaking that after so many years of documented Russian terror, we still have to convince the West to help us because it is cheaper than fighting Russia. Not because they kill us every day. www.foreignaffairs.com/ukraine/pric... - ThreadSky

It really is heartbreaking. Im from Germany and many people here unfortunately fall for russian narratives and russiam propaganda. Helping Ukraine now to defeat Russia is the by far best investment the West can do for its own security and stability

Yes, very sad. Unfortunately that’s how you have to make the argument in some capitals.

Sounds like Trump‘s tone.

Ukraine didn't "decide" to have corruption. Ukraine was vastly more *infected* by Soviet corruption then the tiny Baltics. Ukraine being a more valuable resource, by size and location

I agree 100%!!!

I agree. The problem is convincing the @OrangeClown that it is in the best interest of the US to help Ukraine. Remember that trump responds well to flattery and always ask "what's in it for me?"I hope Zelensky offers him a juicy deal that will benefit him personally and he will agree to anything.

Ukraine is very rich in minerals. I hope there are people around Trump who hammer it down to Trump again & again how the US can benefit tremendously from a ukrainian victory & how costly a russian victory would be since Russia & China would get the minerals then.

I am really sorry Kate. I guess I was naive to think America's foreign policy cared about human rights instead of being so heartless and selfish

From the beginning we didn’t do enough. Could have pushed the RU invaders out in two weeks. And we didn’t.

Maybe Germany can't give Taurus, because they are sabotaged

This has been true since humans have walked in earth. The poor and downtrodden are cannon fodder while the rich steal land.
