Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Sunday thanked U.S. political leaders for approving an aid package to Ukraine over the weekend, saying the newfound aid will give the country a chance at "victory" as the country defends itself from Russia.

“I think this support will really strengthen the armed forces, I pray, and we will have a chance at victory if Ukraine really gets the weapons system, which we need so much, which thousands of soldiers need so much,” Zelenskyy, who spoke via an interpreter, said on NBC News' "Meet the Press."

...

Asked whether this aid will help Ukraine win the war or just prolong it, Zelenskyy told Welker, “It depends on when we actually get weapons on the ground.

In three weeks, Zelensky will be visiting Washington D.C. to lobby Congress for more “critical aid” to turn the tide in the never to end war.
Anyone sick of this crap yet?

How many Ukrainian mothers have to cry at night over their dead sons so that The Democrat Party Organized Crime Syndicate can cover up their crimes in Ukraine?

The other nations will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion. Then we shall unleash the nihilists and the atheistic communists who’ve been restrained and held in check since WWII, and we shall provoke a formidable, final social cataclysm. - Albert Pike, 1871

Secret societies create conflict, tricking the nations into false wars and we fall for it every time.

.....saying the newfound aid will give the country a chance at "victory"....

Until it won't and guess what? Another aid package will be needed for another "chance" at victory. Rinse and repeat...

Albert Pike knew about WW2 in 1871?

Dang. The Masons know way more than I thought. Is the Rotary as prescient?

Plenty more where that came from, Z! After all, Ukraine is our top priority.

All about Ukraine.

Where are the Dem voters in Michigan and on college campuses protesting the additional funding for Israel?

Crickets.

Notice media isn’t mentioning it much as well. U.S. tax dollars are paying to obliterate Gaza.

How does continued loss of territory and fortified villages equate to “close to victory”?

Biggest grifter in history. The war was lost a long time ago and these funds give him and his buddies the ability to buy mansions in far away places

This will mark about 400 Billion in military aid to Ukraine (with no money for our border), three or four times the Russian annual Military budget. It will also provide millions upon millions of dark money to Biden’s campaign and keep the military industrial complex rolling in money to give our congress critters. The good news for Biden is that killing and slaughter of young men will continue past the election so he won’t have lost another war during his campaign. The blood of Tens of thousands of young men is certainly a small price to pay to keep the wheels of war greased.

they could get another 60-80 billion

Total since the war, over $200 billion, by the end of next year, nearing $300 billion?

The billions will prolong the carnage and enrich the evil. The Ukrainians will never defeat Russia.

Civilized countries have always rushed to end hostilities like this with negotiations.

Take, for example, the current Israeli/Hamas war. Evil people fear Israel will defeat a terrorist enemy. Can’t have that.

However, in this war, calling for an end to hostilities is considered to be an evil thing to do.

20 billion has already been borrowed against. Much of the aid money is for “continuance of government “ activities.
