    It seems like it’s getting really close to the point where this kind of nonsense won’t matter anymore. Been a good run on refineries recently undoing any gains from the Iran conflict. I really hope we can see a truly independent Ukraine where the thoughts of the likes of vance can be ignored.

      While it’s an improved situation, and really it’s Russia’s to lose at this point, not having US aid would be a fairly large functional hit to Ukraine. Specifically in the intelligence area, but even whatever the 400 million that the administration doles out from the USAI would be helpful. Ukraine’s debt continues to grow here and mitigating it is going to give Ukraine a better leg up in whatever this war endgame looks like.

      I do think that Russia will likely have a major fiscal collapse later this year and we may see the end of this by mid 2027, so the 90 Billion the EU loaned may be the winning stroke.

      A truly independent Ukraine, where their Nazi battalions can do as many ethnic cleansings in border regions as they like

        Why do you pretend to care? It’s obvious you just picked a civilization like this is a video game and stick to it. Why not have an ideology instead?

        Lol I love when you people try to act like Russia isn’t rife with both nationalism and racism as well as having their own Nazis apart from that culture entirely.

        Laughable dorks

          Russia one of the most racist and nationalistic countries in the world. The two traits it takes to be Nazis.

          0 Nazis, according to your dorks. Pathetic

    He’s not even “helping Russians”, he’s helping Russia. As in Putin and the oligarchs that are the enemies of Democracy. Which is weird because Trump has credibly been accused of being a Russian asset…

      No he hasn’t. He’s literally the most USAmerican thing ever.
