The Biden administration on Monday sent Congress an urgent warning about the need to approve tens of billions of dollars in military and economic assistance to Ukraine, saying Kyiv’s war effort to defend itself from Russia’s invasion may grind to a halt without it.
In a letter to House and Senate leaders and also released publicly, Office of Management and Budget Director Shalanda Young warned the U.S. will run out of funding to send weapons and assistance to Ukraine by the end of the year, saying that would “kneecap” Ukraine on the battlefield.
She added that the U.S. already has run out of money that it has used to prop up Ukraine’s economy, and “if Ukraine’s economy collapses, they will not be able to keep fighting, full stop.”
“Sunk cost” isn’t applicable because human lives don’t have a fucking price.
I don’t think you understand what the fallacy is if you think that’s the case.
If Ukraine loses, then what good has all their aid actually done?
Well, for one, Russia will have been forced to expend a shitton of lives and war materiel, and will be forced to expend a shitton more putting down the resultant Ukrainian insurgency. Crippling the Russian military for a generation is no small thing.
The Russian military is now stronger than before the war started. So is their damn ruble. We were fed and are still being fed a bunch of malarkey.
Lol no they are not, please provide sources for this. Cause it’s not true at all. RU is in serious trouble.
Only malarkey here is your comment, their military and the ruble are in shambles.
Lol is reading a simple chart too difficult for you?
Ukraine don’t need to beat Russia they simply need to make the war so painful that they withdraw it’s not like they have to counter invade
