    20+ years, billions of dollars, and years of the West bitching about the US swinging it’s dick around.

    5 years later: Help us Afghanistan is a shit hole and Europe probably couldn’t defend itself against Russia much less China.

      Russia failed to defeat Ukraine after 2 years of fighting and you think they would be able to amount to anything against the whole of Europe? Lol.

          I don’t agree so he’s a troll 🙄

          The US is supplying the vast majority of the aid. You think Ukraine wouldn’t be overrun if it was missing the 90% of the weapons that the US donated? Even EU policy leaders are calling for more EU defense spending to get away from being dependent.

        Do you believe Ukraine would be in the position or is without US intervention? Despite internal political rhetoric that the EU needs to be more independent from the US?

        The US has donated nearly 100b in aid, 45b of that in weapons. The closest two EU countries are UK and DE topping out at …checks notes… 12b or so.

        If the US said fuck you guys, we aren’t sending you weapons, we are done ensuring the West has the ability to be the effective world police , Eastern Europe would look far smaller.
