Who’s at 2 percent? Look how NATO allies have increased their defense spending since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

To me it seems there is no leverage Ukraine holds ver the White House now that Biden is gone. No worry about Hunters SIrT getting release if you don’t oh now!!!

It also seems like Ukraine was not even wanting a cease fire as an interim so not sure what he expected. And pointing himself as a custom didn’t help as he is not.

Below is a guy that probably smarter than most of us here addressing it. Well worth the 8 minutes to listen to!

AFTER the good ‘Ol USA covering their butts for ‘em for the past 80 years🙄. About time people took at least SOME responsibility for their own protection. I fully believe each ally should pay their fair share for the common defense (whether it’s 2% or 5, it don’t care, but it should be a equitable %)

My point can be easily ascertained if you read the link I posted above.

Prior to US meddling Ukranians mostly identified as Russians. And Ukraine after 1991 was NOT a democracy. And the US pretense for meddling over there during the Obama administration, which is the cause of this war, was complete bullshite.
