It’s important for Americans to realize that European support for Ukraine is often conducted in a secretive manner.

  1. Thank you for writing and posting.

    I wrote similar post last week.

  2. Funny enough, it’s usually Europeans bringing up the Kihl stats…….that being said, we can, and all need to do more faster.

  3. So they lack transparency and can later say we have actually given more but because it was done in a secretive manner we don’t have to show any evidence. Europe has no arms industry, they “promised” other donations because they have allowed America and to a lesser extent south korea to become their arms producers, lest they risk themselves politically. I bet they are all collectively sighing in relief that they don’t have to actually change anything going forward because America just offered more arms support than all of them combined.

  4. It’s so supportive and so secretive Russia just kept on winning.  Good job EU.  You fooled us.

  5. I mean I’ve seen this said and discussed but end of the day American support shut off and Ukraine went dry. Personally I think Europe has far underfunded their military for years now and it is showing.

  6. I think quite a lot of the European aid is just money. Which helps Ukraine pay its soldiers but obviously shooting euro coins is not effective.

  7. That may well be true but you’re losing wide swaths of idiotic American voters that unfortunately don’t understand geopolitics or the benefits of soft power and have the ability to undermine the war effort. Your contributions might need a little more publicity
