Ukraine didn’t start the war. Putin did. Now Putin needs the US to step in and help him. Putin is losing. His time is coming to an end and Trump is a traitor.

This is not the first time the threat of cutting of intelligence-sharing has come up. Is there any consensus on how badly this would affect Ukraine's ability to strike Russia? Intelligence seems to be the only useful thing left that Ukraine can still get from the US.

Disgraceful. Another new low for Trump and the corruption palace formerly called the White House. Hang in there Ukraine 🙏.

Now is the time Europe steps up, Ukraine defies Trump and the Russians are finally defeated. There is no other option, the americans are beyond redemption, time to cut them loose. When they retake their gov we start to mend fences. Until then America is compromised.

The civilised countries, should start treating the US as a hostile country and act accordingy. They should do likewise with Israel.

as I mentioned earlier.....this is a big middle finger to Ukraine and birthday present to Putin.

I think Russia has a shortage of diesel and is only going to release an amount that will not do a thing for prices, but will give Russia an influx of $$ while enabling them to increase capacity and make a lot more before April. This is a big FU to Ukraine.

This will be the excuse then, to cut off the last bit of support provided by 🇺🇸. I have genuinely never felt such shame for my country.

Shame is not enough. The rest of the World gives you one last chance at the midterms. Thereafter, if things do not turn better, we will write you totally off. Nobody will want to deal with a Nazi regime that spits on their allies and enriches their enemies. Enjoy your $41T debt blowing up.

We are supposedly purchasing diesel from Russia while its own citizens are waiting on fuel lines? What the hell are we doing buying from a country that started a war with our allies? Our $$$ induced Russia to suspend its export ban? Is that all our $$$ is buying?

It is worse than that. We are paying Moscow regime which actively supports Iranian regime. Moscow regime is the only true ally Iran has.
