 Yeah, we knew that already.  Uncle has given several hundred billion dollars to Ukraine.  Might as well set the money on fire and thrown it in Atlantic.

      Like your brilliant leader, Mr.T, you fail to understand
how that works. We put billions in loans and war equipment in the
hands of the Ukranians and they kill Russians. They did not invite
the Russians to come and be killed.
     Vlad Putin the senior Oligarch of Russia sent them to
take over the Ukrainian Nation, a nation recognized by the
UN and other organizations. Russia under the Czars, under the
USSR especially under Stalin was treated very badly so though
they Ukrainians and the Russian are cousins they wanted to
be separate from Russia.
      But the money is spent with our allies who buy from us
or build their own war equipment. Our makers of war equipment
make more tools of War and profit immensely.
     Over all the Rich get Richer and the Poor get Poorer
which should make your pal of the billionaires much happier,
but maybe we can keep the Ukrainians somewhat free.

 Got some real numbers proving that instead of a bunch of old platitudes and pie in the sky wishiwashiness ?  The loans are no good because the underlying collateral has been destroyed.
 Ukraine is a disaster and Europe knows it.  We have sent blood and treasure to a foreign power once again and are getting totally screwed. The end result will be the same no matter what we do, Ukraine will be a satellite of Russia.  Any difference from that will end in nuclear weapon exchanges.

Yes.  That is why Berlin will be nuked first when Putin gets tired of the nonsense.

This is incorrect. The moment Putin reaches for the button, his head will be served up to the Brussels Nobility by his brutuses. They want nothing more than get their toys back in europe. If putin were to reach for the button, they see a lifetime of isolation and starvation, so they will kill him quickly, apologize, and install a new leader.
Putin knows this, which is why his position is getting weaker and wearker every day.
First it was monetary support that was going to lead to nuclear war, then it was tanks, then it was planes, now I think it is long range missiles and troops of the ground.
Putins threats are hollow, and slowly the politicians will realize this, and then the war will be ended quickly.
