People in this thread clearly don't understand what the implications are. There is a very clear danger of war on the European continent that will involve NATO and by proxy the US. Aid for Ukraine is the absolute cheapest option. Europe is not going to just let Ukraine fall and will ramp up their involvement. We already have France willing to send troops.
One who consider a proxy war where thousand people die and a country get destroyed the "cheapest option" tells you how much they are in bad faith. For politicians your life is indeed cheap and something they can trash away for profits
So no aid to Ukraine and show Russia that it can indeed start wars where thousands die and destroy countries, without negative consequences?
As long as it doesn't mess up with their business no government in the world care if russia starts a war. Where's the aid to gaza as a genocide is happening at the hands of israel? War is a business and politicians wants more of it
I didn't condone the USA's actions, and it's clear from your comment that you assume I would. It's clear to me who is the aggressor in this conflict between Ukraine and Russia, and it's not Ukraine.
Don't let your disdain for one imperialist push you over to another.
Classic whataboutism.
Because the US does interventionism, fund far-right politicians, etc., Russia (and China) can do as such, and even more. At least the US doesn't want to "regain it's old lost territories".
