The U.S. will send Ukraine an undisclosed number of medium-range cluster bombs and an array of rockets, artillery and armored vehicles in a military aid package totaling about $375 million, U.S. officials said Tuesday.

Officials expect an announcement on Wednesday, as global leaders meet at the U.N. General Assembly, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy uses his appearance there to shore up support and persuade the U.S. to allow his troops to use long-range weapon s to strike deeper into Russia. The following day, Zelenskyy meets with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris in Washington.

    The fact that Ukraine is a proxy state is spoken out loud by American politicians as well.

    Please provide evidence for this supposed fact.

    Also, Putin doesn’t call it a proxy state, he calls it the homeland of the Russian people, which is why he’s trying to make it part of Russia.

      Here’s an article that you’ve already had linked to you a thousand times you may hopefully incorporate into your worldview a decade later. The scandal here is that the US is hand picking their preferred puppet leader instead of letting the EU have a say.

      Also, Putin doesn’t call it a proxy state

      He did in his speech explaining why Russia invaded that I’m absolutely not shocked that you haven’t read or listened to.

        That’s an article from 2014. You might have missed a couple of administrations. Would you like to go back further? What did Eisenhower’s top diplomat have to say about things?

        And Putin also said it was the homeland of the Russian people, and I’m absolutely not shocked that you’re not acknowledging that.

          To assert the premise that Ukraine is a US puppet I linked you a news article about US diplomats hand picking their leader and you say it’s disqualified because it’s an article from when it happened.

          You’re just a profoundly unserious person.
