Ukraine to Allies: Please Give us One Per Cent of Your GDP to Fight Russia

Oliver JJ Lane 9 May 2023

One per cent of Western Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is a worthy sacrifice to defeat Russia and is dwarfed by what America spent to beat Nazi Germany, says a Ukraine spokesman.

Ukraine very much appreciates the near-$37 billion the United States is already giving in military aid but more — much more, in fact — is needed, a Ukrainian diplomat now working as a full-time procurer of military equipment has said.

Andrij Melnyk, who is becoming well known beyond the borders of Ukraine for his persistent campaigning to push the envelope on military donations to Ukraine and being one of the loudest voices demanding larger numbers of tanks, Western jets, and even warships, made the comments on a German television political show this week, where he said Western nations had to cross their own “red lines” to send more equipment. The former ambassador to Germany, now Ukrainian government minister, said “this will not be an easy undertaking, but a Herculean task”.

This issue may be also weighing on Biden’s approval rating
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

???  I believe the U.S.A. has already given more than that.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

  • Dems-greatest existential threat to USA republic!
Ukraine has NEVER been an allies of the USA.  NEVER!

Why then are we as a nation injecting ourselves into their conflict?  Total waste of treasury.

It is a fine example of the USA taxpayer feeding the military industrial complex, plain and simple. 

We have troops on the ground in Ukraine.  Did you know that?  I assume they are all special operators.  You want your son dying in this conflict?  I sure as hell don't.  You and I know it will end up like Vietnam, where we gradually up the numbers of USA forces on the ground.  I see this as one more betrayal of the American people.
