Oh It’s a loan!
So we get all our money back.
Suuuure.
The kind of loan that no sensible financial institution would ever make.
About as likely as Ukraine paying back its loans.
Hey it’s not too late for us to flush to a few hundred billion more on Ukraine while we’re at it

Apples and oranges. Millei is a libertarian who is slashing the corrupt government workforce, and atopped inflating the money supply in typical Latin Aerican fashion.
He is also cleaning a mess left by decades of corruption and bad policy.
This is truly an investment in a country on the rebound doing the right thing, and one that can be an example to the folks in Colombia, Venezuela and Brazil as to how it is done.
A few years ago Chile righted its economic ship and made good on loans.

Putin, with the #2 military in the world has had to ask for North Korean soldiers and weapons.

Ukraine was given its money. That is why Little z has continued to be mad at any hint of pay back.
In the past, the US built military bases and had to curry favor financially with countries. Isn’t it better to encourage a healthy relationship with a country fighting its Deep State, with just an exchange, rather than so much more?
This is an excellent deal. It is along the lines of paying African countries to house our illegals. We are paying to wipe out a Deep State and support sanity in a reasonably-sized country that is an ally.
With Israel, we give without assuring anything comes back. We generally hope the money is used well with an ally.
