Zelensky Complains (Again) that Foreign Aid Delays Are Making Life ‘Very Difficult’
Breitbart ^ | 02/20/2024 | SIMON KENT

Posted on 02/20/2024 6:17:22 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

A lack of foreign aid deliveries from Western allies makes life “very difficult” for Ukraine’s fighters, a despairing President Volodymyr Zelensky said late Monday.

Zelensky and other officials have repeatedly expressed frustration at the slowness of promised aid deliveries even as European countries struggle to find enough stocks to satisfy Kyiv’s demands.

In Washington aid worth $60 billion is currently waiting to be approved by Congress, much to the anger of Ukraine’s leadership that wants the U.S. taxpayer funds released as a matter of urgency.

Poor Zelensky. Just think how bad it is for the people he keeps sending into the meat grinder.

What Zelensky means by difficult is that the wife is probably nagging him for another round of shopping in Paris.

This sentence reminds me of the released illegal in NYC flipping the bird at the camera.

What Zelensky means by “difficult” about not getting the $60 billion tax dollars
is that the wife is probably nagging him for another round of shopping in Paris.


You got that right.

The US has already sent more than $75 billion to Ukraine, and allocated funds to $113 billion. There’s still $38 billion in the pipeline. Can we pump the brakes a little on this? (I know, /CrazyTalk)

Yes, Ukrainians would be much better off as slaves under Putin, in fact why does anyone defend their families, homes or nation from invasion?

But not difficult enough to sit down and talk peace. Peace doesn’t pay. War pays.

Last time I checked, this was a war between two non-NATO nations, one receiving billions in aid from NATO and the other sanctioned economically in a variety of ways by NATO partners.

Wars begin, and wars end. This one will end. Before it does, the government -- having received billions is aid and assisted by sanctions against its opponent -- is pleading for more.

More! Because war is "difficult."

Indeed, difficult as "European countries struggle to find enough stocks to satisfy Kyiv’s demands."

Putting this in the context of populations, the EU is about 450+ million people "struggling" to meet Zelensky's "demands."

War is indeed difficult. And, in the moment, negotiations impossible. So it has been said. And so the world is at that moment when messaging, nudging, manufacturing consent and all is the other war ongoing....

Because politics is so important, in the US as in Europe, and Democrats tell us the greatest threat is....

The dummy tried to retake Avdiivka. He also is going to prosecute the troops that ran away from Avdiivka at the first debacle.

He could try the "Arafat at the UN" look, complete with a pistol.

Sue for peace. Take whatever terms are offered. Live to fight another day.

That was EXACTLY the same impression I got reading that ONE sentence.

They can stuff their anger in their nether regions. With prejudice.

It is that stinking, arrogant sense of entitlement that we see not only with that grifter, but the vast majority of illegals entering this country like the one flipping the bird.

Our chance to win this was March 2022. Biden and the EU doddled. Now Ukraine has turned into a laundromat, and both Biden and Russia want it to continue indefinitely for their own reasons.
