US money and weapons are not needed.

"Russia is competing with Western countries to supply weapons to Ukraine," Colonel Oleksandr Saruba told Deutsche Welle.
According to the German outlet, Saluba works for the Ukrainian military center that receives and analyzes captured weaponry.
Ukraine has been making use of captured weapons and armor since the outset of the war — in March 2022 it announced that it had captured 24 Uragan missiles and had aimed them back at the enemy.
According to Deutsche Welle, the captured technology is useful in another way.
Probing them provides information on where Russia is receiving its high-tech parts from, which could guide future sanctions.
Ukraine has recovered a vast array of Russian military equipment and is putting it to use. That includes 800 pieces of artillery, tanks, and other vehicles, Deutsche Welle reported. But experts said there are limits to how well Ukraine can make use of the equipment. Ukraine is turning hundreds of pieces of military equipment captured from Russia back on the invading forces, according to a new report.
Ukraine has scooped up more than 800 Russian artillery systems, armored vehicles, and other weaponry since the start of the war, including 300 tanks, according to Deutsche Welle.
Those have then been repaired where necessary, examined for crucial military-tech information, and often put back on the battlefield — to be pointed directly back at their former owners, the outlet said.
Among the weapons captured are Russia's prized modernized T-72 tanks, it said, while many items, including Grad rocket launcher systems, fell into Ukrainian hands during last fall's stunning counteroffensive in the north and east of the country, sources told the outlet.

Good.
US money and weapons are not needed.
US money and weapons are not needed.
I take that as gospel truth. ;-)
If this is true, why is their boy begging for billions more from our clown in the White House?
Yeah, but the Big Guy doesn’t get his 10% from captured Russian weapons.
i believe nothing...Z owns the media.
I imagine it works both ways. Russia is undoubtedly capturing and using weapons from Ukraine to fight the Ukrainians.
But, sanctions could be more damaging to Russia, since it’s very dependent on equipment and tech and parts from the U.S. and Europe and other countries that support Ukraine.
If I wanted a few billion dollars, and all I had to do is ask, I certainly would!
All that we hear about Ukraine and Russia is psyops and bullshit.
It would be like saying the US Military is being wiped out by the Mexican Army.
And we believe this guy because.......?
Brandon also doesn’t get his Putin brokered Iran nuke deal as long as this is a hot war. That is what Obama-Biden Democrats really care about since it will remove President Trump’s excellent Iran policy. So the Ukrainians better hurry up and surrender their country ASAP.
Because sites like Oryx document captured russian equipment.

...it would be like saying the US Military is being wiped out by the Mexican Army.”
Why? The Mrxican army actually trains to fight. They aren’t teaching men how to wear panties and dresses like the US armed forces.
Maybe he does if the weapons get sold to Mexican cartels, ISIS or Al Qaeda and then potentially used against US forces
Makes you wonder why the much publicized counteroffensive has gone nowhere considering Ukraine is taking so many Russian weapons
