U.S. President Joe Biden promised new military aid for Ukraine worth $500 million during a surprise visit to Kyiv on Monday, almost a year to the day since Russia's invasion.

In a trip showing solidarity with Kyiv, Biden also said additional sanctions would be announced this week against the Russian elite and companies trying to evade sanctions to "back the Russian war machine".

The military aid package will include artillery ammunition, anti-armour systems and air surveillance radars "to help protect the Ukrainian people from aerial bombardments," he said.

"Freedom is priceless. It is worth fighting for as long as it takes. And that's how long we're going to be with you, Mr. President. As long as it takes," Biden told President Volodymyr Zelenskiy after talks.

Biden is lyin’ again. Still propping up the Ukrainian money laundering operation with tax payer dollars, while at the same time they realize Zelensky won’t get the materials requested. The ‘show’ must go on to keep Biden’s ability to shovel US Tax payer funds at Zelensky, who then redistributes the money, some of it back to the Biden crime family. Keeping the grift going.

Joe wanted to make sure all the documents were shredded and his 10% was ready for pick up.

More affirmation of the Forever War. Just like Afghanistan. Courtesy of the Secretary from Raytheon.

Historic visit?

LOL! Ukraine is one of the principal money laundries for the Biden crime family and its international associates.

He’s just got to make sure the operation is well lubricated.

Vital national security interest or vital Biden financial security interest. Which is Ukraine?

Is Braindead Joe going to get us into a war with two major nuclear powers - China and Russia? It seems likely given the close relationship Putin has with Xi. That’s certain to not have a good ending for us but he will definitely preserve his title as the ‘Screwup Artist Extraordinaire.’

Biden returns to the scene of the crime with more bribes, more promises and more escalation.

Zelensky turns around and threatens China now saying: “If China allies itself with Russia, there will be a world war.”

“Surprise visit“? We knew as soon as Karine said, there were no plans to visit Ukraine that he was going to visit Ukraine. Lying? Watch their lips move. Disgusting.
