... plenty of income from Black Sea natural gas in their territorial waters. They will have a huge market share...

Why aren't they paying for their own damn war then? The last chunk of money the US gave these folks was MORE money than we spend supporting the US Marines FOR A YEAR.

Marines for a year? Yeah. That includes salaries, training, weapons, trips, uniforms, buildings, recruiting, food, etc etc etc.

We're also paying the pensions and salaries of many in Ukraine.

How about a little transparency on how our money is being spent? Is that asking too much from one of the most corrupt countries in the world?

It’s hard to pump oil/gas when a hostile neighbor invaded the territory where those resources are located. That is what this whole war is about. Resources. Not Nazis, not Russian speaking Ukrainians, not NATO on the border. This was to keep Ukraine from cutting into Russia’s natural gas exports.
