While $1 billion of the military aide would go to Ukraine, the rest will be divided among Albania, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Georgia, Greece, Kosovo, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia.

It’s the 10% for the “Big Guy”, Zelensky.
Putin saw an opportunity with a weakened United States with a puppet president and exploited it. They were expecting to waltz in as easily as they took over Crimea in 2014, and followed by their separatist wars in the Donbass which Ukraine largely recognized in said agreements.
Like Hitler, after gaining the Sudetenland by agreement in 1938, then decided to go for the whole of Czechoslovakia just five months later, Putin decided to make a similar move on Ukraine, not because the west was particularly supportive of the sovereignty of either county but because the tyrant next door believed that they would not be.
The only difference is that Hitler's calculation was correct and Putin's was not. It had little to do with the accords signed in either Munich or Minsk and everything to do with the perception of opportunity and easy conquest.
How about that Fence on our southern border. That is where we have been invaded by 5 million illegal Brandon aliens. Also how about running water for Jackson, MS.
We gave Ukraine plenty already. It is not our responsibility.
“Your points are noted, but nobody forced Putin to unleash the brutal invasion of a neighbor that posed no threat to Russia.”
I think the US lost that moral ground virtually the day the Cold War ended.
Amen, brother
“...Was that a beneficial idea ..”
Yes it was. The problem was that the modern US financed industries of Europe and Japan were now competing with an old, rust-belt American industry that needed upgrading and modernizing. But it was neglected. That’s not the European’s fault. It was our fault.
That is also why the Europeans should take responsibility to rebuild Ukraine and not the US.
Maybe that money could be used to rebuild Detroit?
Unacceptable and Democrats are absurdly out of control.
It's almost like really stupid people are running our government. Oh wait.
These globalists have been looting the American treasure for years all in an effort to cripple us. Globalist have no place for an independent free country. America’s being economically gang raped by these are traitorous criminals.
We’re paying WAY too much in taxes if we can afford to give other countries that damned much money, but can’t fix our own.
Don't forget the 10% for the Big Guy......
Exactly.🤔
I figure the Russia haters on here would love this. Maybe they should volunteer to throw more of their own money at it. Maybe even go there and help rebuild.
