Time for the EU to step up, pay up, and man up.
Their fight.
The EU can cut out all their bragged about social programs and “free” health care that WE pay for by paying THEIR share of NATO costs. That should cover all Ukraine needs to keep on losing the demographically and economically hopeless invasion war. Sad all around.
Yes, this.
The Ukraine war affects Europeans in Europe. While I'm on Ukraine's side, I still recall the Vietnam war (in which I was a uniformed participant). This is the time for the EU to step up, pay up, and man up. It's their fight.
Only after upgrading our United States Military (including trained and ready personnel and the very best in equipment and aircraft and aircraft carriers and missiles and every conceivable military advantage, should we even consider assisting a country that was not a member of NATO or an ally in any respect, ever.
And then, any aid we give would absolutely not include US troops, and absolutely, however, would include a thorough, comprehensive audit which would be real-time-published for all the world to see.
Any (any) corruption noted, deal is off, completely. And that's that.
