Russia to spend a third of its budget on defense as Ukraine war drains resources

7 comments

1. Speaking at a news conference with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Costa reiterated the EU’s recent commitment to help Ukraine continue through the war, including €4.2 billion ($4.4 billion) to support Ukraine’s budget and €1.5 billion ($1.6 billion) of assistance every month from the proceeds of frozen Russian assets.

   Asked whether the EU would step up funding if Trump withdrew support, Costa said the block would “stand for Ukraine as long as necessary.”

2. “defense” is a bit of a stretch don’t you think?

3. Putin is bankrupting Russia to pay for his war in Ukrainian, he’s running out of money…

4. 13.5 trillion roubles. With a T.

   That’s like… 3 trips to Starbucks.

5. So 70% will keep shitting in a hole in the garden, got it.

6. Russia to spend a third of its budget on ~~defense~~ **failing imperial land-grab** as Ukraine war drains resources

7. When keeping it real goes wrong…I guess we get to watch the collapse in real time.
