Ukrainian forces would have to cede further territory to Russia if US military aid does not arrive soon, President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned, in his latest appeal to Congress to pass a multibillion-dollar package.
President Joe Biden’s administration is struggling to push a $95 billion international aid package – which includes $60 billion for Ukraine – through the House of Representatives more than month since it was passed in the Senate.
Zelensky warned that the lack of aid was urgent, and could endanger Ukraine’s major cities.
“If there is no US support, it means that we have no air defense, no Patriot missiles, no jammers for electronic warfare, no 155-millimeter artillery rounds,” he told The Washington Post during a recent interview published Friday. “It means we will go back, retreat, step by step, in small steps.”
Yet we can give Israel more bombs no problem
USARussia first!MRGA, fuck yeah
Don’t pretend Biden isn’t an unabashed Zionist and didn’t go around congress to send Israel weapons
As long as conservatives have any power, they will always support Putin. Conservatives support genocide. That is just who they are at their core.
Throughout history, the nations committing genocide have always been the most conservative. We cannot fight genocide without fighting conservatism.
This is a very dangerous take, and it’s concerning how many upvoters you have, who are also not thinking critically.
You seem to be forgetting that liberals and conservatives in this country are all Americans. We are all on one team, and foreign interests wish to divide us and convince us that we are enemies, when we are not.
Watch this if you don’t believe me.
Conservatives need liberals to exist as much as liberals need conservatives to exist. The day this country’s tensions between conservatism and liberalism die is the day the USA ceases to exist. That tension is at the core of our republic, literally since its founding, and it’s what makes us great, unlike any other nation on Earth.
I wish more progressives would remember that.
What a crock of shit.
You sound angry, my friend. You’ve been sold lies just like the right has. Putin and Xi Xinping have been succeeding at tearing this country apart from the inside out.
Im not angry, you just only have a few talking points so being called out leaves you with little else.
The day this country’s tensions between conservatism and liberalism die is the day the USA ceases to exist. That tension is at the core of our republic, literally since its founding, and it’s what makes us great, unlike any other nation on Earth.
That sounds as if this tension was somehow unique to the united states. It’s not, it’s everywhere. Even worse, the US have less of a political spectrum than most other nations, just shy of dictatorships.
While we continue to give arms to a country committing genocide. Welcome to AIPAC power over US citizens
The official sponsor of this election is Russia.
Republicans serve their master well.
The western ‘aid’ is restricted to holding the line, not counterattack, right? How does it serve Ukraine’s interests moving forward? Establish a head to support efforts to advance into Russian territory?
Wdym the Western aid is restricted from counterattacking? Nothing about that is true, U.S. aid is being held up solely by the Republicans, and European aid is continuing mostly as normal. None of Ukraine’s counteroffensives have ever led to a decrease in aid, only an increase.
In Germany, whenever the discussion about wether to deliver a specific weapon system or not extends to a “new” weapon system, this usually is an argument against. Hurr durr, it could be used to poke too deep into Russian-held territory, or beware, even strike native Russian soil. Russia might not like that and pull Germany into the war or throw a nuke or whatnot.
Afaik: thats why they are using ukranian made drones to attack the refineries.
The strategy until recently was more about the steady attrition of Russian HR and equipment, which is a long term game, but needs the proper funding, otherwise Ukraine would have to give up positions.
