        What do you think Ukraine would look like without help? There would be thousands of massacres like in Bucha and that’s just the start.

          hundreds of soldiers are dying daily in what is being known as a meat grinder. The world overall would look much better if nations and their corrupted leader hadn’t spent public money to build weapons over the past centuries.

          No politician and faction want peace, they want war, they profit on war, elites to not fight their wars they send other people to die

          You seem to be brainwashed by propaganda into believing that not sending weapons to a dictatorship means you are helping another one. Your government seem fine with russia taking over ukraine otherwise they probably would stop their partnerships with china who is providing russia weapons.
