The US will send $300m (£234m) in military weapons to Ukraine, including ammunition, rockets and anti-aircraft missiles, the White House has said.
The surprise announcement comes as a bill in Congress to send further aid to Ukraine stalls amid partisan debate.
The US shipment, the first in nearly three months, is intended to prevent Ukraine from losing ground to Russia.
National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said this aid “is nowhere near enough to meet Ukraine’s battlefield needs”.
“This ammunition will keep Ukraine’s guns firing for a period, but only a short period,” Mr Sullivan told reporters on Tuesday, adding that “it will not prevent Ukraine from running out of ammunition.”
Imagine using these money to make something useful and not to fuel wars and dictatorships
I mean, defending the borders of a sovereign, democratic state from invasion, rape, murder and genocide seems like “something useful” to me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ukraine can’t win without foreign troops on the ground, though.
This is just using them as cannon fodder to weaken Russia.
I feel bad for the Ukrainians duped by the West into thinking they actually have a chance because of some weapons.
Jaaayyyysus…All you ever do is come into these threads repeating “Ukraine can’t win without foreign troops on the ground” over and over and over.
4 times in the last 2 days by my quick check. (edit: sorry, 5 and more if we go back to 3 days)
Alright, alright. We heard you. You can stop saying it now.
You could report them for trolling behavior across multiple posts
