Ukraine isn't asking anyone to go to the front and fight for them. They're asking for this aid. Anyone who cares about Ukraine as much as they claim will listen to what Ukraine asks for.
Halp me. They are attacking me send money, not reinforcements.
Geez, you have to be either blind or dumb to not see what this is. Proxy war is war. This is about money at this point, and what better way to funnel money than through aid packages.
Are you suggesting these Ukrainians on the front line begging for ammo are getting rich off of this somehow?
You think they are going to send a bag of money to Ukraine? Are you really that dumb? The approved amount is for weapons and ammo.
They can send money to their weapon manufacturers even without this war, you know?
You dumb fuck. They're sending that money in the form of weapons, ammo, fuel, tools, and equipment. Zelenskyy even said "I don't need a ride, I need more bullets."
