Kyiv (Ukraine) (AFP) – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday asked the international community to cover an expected budget deficit of $38 billion next year for his war-torn country, with Moscow's invasion also badly hitting the economy.

At an international reconstruction conference for Ukraine in Berlin, Zelensky urged European leaders to offer greater financial support for his country more than eight months after Vladimir Putin sent Russian troops into Ukraine.

"At this very conference we need to make a decision on assistance to cover next year's budget deficit for Ukraine," Zelensky said via video-link. "It's a very significant amount of money, a $38 billion deficit," he added.

Enough with the war of egos. We owe Ukraine nothing.

The war will end with a negotiated peace or annihilation. Thanks to the US and Europe, guess which one we are headed for. Leave the Ukraine mess to Europe. Spend our money on our own invasion from the south.

There’s plenty on FR who support Biden’s war on behalf of Europe’s catamite breeding camp.

I bet they would have supported Wilson’s war too.

Ooooh. A histories major, and a Hitler reference. You win the Internets for the day.
I’ll have to re-read The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich to see how this all ends.
‘Cause as we all knows history repeats itself, or some boring throw away line like that blah, blah,blah.🥱

This war was allowed to be exected to save the globalists, particularly Biden. They thought that Americans would rally around Biden like they rallied around both Bushes and Clinton. That’s how craven that I believe these people are. Time to negotiate peace.

Your reading was obviously inadequate. You should read US history

For your enlightenment, my reference was to the isolationists in the Republican party in the 1930’s

Biden is irrelevant and not germane to the discussion

Of course, but it helps the Russian shills here to deflect from the uncomfortable FACTS that their pedophile warmonger in the Kremlin started this war, and is losing it

Truth is, they support any war any where. When this concludes, assuming we aren't all killed in the flash, they will be off to find the next shiny thing to wage war on. They will follow their demented leader where ever he shuffles off to. It's bizarre. It's unAmerican.

You morons keep saying “our” and insinuating that everyone of us who wants no part of this is somehow a fan of Putin

Know that if this goes as bad as it could that many of those who survive are going to be holding a serious grudge against the ones who supported this shit

They have nothing else in their lives and vicariously making themselves part of this gives them meaning

Why are you a Russia lover?

You are so intellectually vapid that you cannot justify the US spending blood and treasure in support of a corrupt government against another corrupt government, so you call names.

Childish

Your archaic thinking is now obsolete.

Zelensky and Ukraine defeated the mighty Russian armies.

That is what history will record. Your thought will not be included except as a possible “some believe” footnote.

I observe and present a finding. The above is my finding made unbiased after making wide observations

Really? The war is over?

It is OK to have a wet dream.

Russia is losing on the battlefield big time. Meantime, the Russian economy is in shambles and is going to get worse.

Russia has gone to several nations hat in hand and has been rebuffed. Iran traded drones for a Russian satellite launch and is now complicit in war crimes. The Iranian drones are being used to kill Ukranian civilians.

Russia lacks the ability to replace expended munitions because their manufacturing capability no longer exists.
