  5. The $250 billion russian assets in europe would be more than enough to cover US’s $26 billion per year for over 1 decade.

    edit: sorry bad math, 9.5 years at worse not 10.

  8. Trudeau sent $5billion from the frozen assets just this week.

  9. Can someone clarify, as I’m not fighting a paywall…

    Are we sending them something they can actually spend? Or is this something they’d have to hold onto until post-war and use it as reparations?

  10. I hope and pray this happens.

    Honestly, it would NOT surprise me if Ukraine gets the upper hand, then trump would send aid to Russia. He’s just a Putin Puppet, anyway.

  11. > The chancellor calls on European leaders to follow her lead as she ups military aid to Zelensky and **diverts money earmarked for green investments** to the UK defence industry

    It’s official: World War 3 is now more threatening than climate change

  12. Better send them before Trump unfreezes them for all his Oligarch pals.
