#2 is allied with #3.... with a "No Limits Partnership"
And both of them are allied with Iran.... and there's nothing going on down there, is there?
So yes... this development is concerning and if you're thinking nothing of it.. .You're not paying attention (IE - Have you head jammed up your ass)
Like I said... Prior to Russian invading Ukraine, what exactly was the US's "critical" relationship with the Ukrainian government... The Government deemed the most corrupt in Europe.
It was stupid to announce this prior to ceasing the conflict between the Countries. Many of you supporting this say it won't happen until the war is over... Exactly. But now, if you're Putin, what incentive is there to stop the war and negotiate. Knowing that the EU and the US are ready to drop another NATO country on your border.
Putin can almost keep this going indefinitely. He has zero regard for sacrificing his own people. Ukraine needs assistance to keep going... and support is starting waiver in certain circles.
Ukraine says it uncovered $40 million corruption scheme in weapons procurement
Ukraine has made significant progress fighting graft, but its record continues to haunt it.

And Where does Blinkin (Biden) get off speaking for the 30+ countries in NATO. Did the Biden Admin even consult with NATO being shitting out this statement in a random interview? It sure doesn't look like it.
lol...
What a cluster fuck by these inept morons.
Poles and Ukrainians are at loggerheads. That’s good news for Putin
Farm exports and freight are the problems

In any event, the protest has damaged the countries’ relations. At the start of the war Poland and Ukraine were united as blood brothers against a common enemy. The Poles took in refugees and slipped mig fighter jets over the border, disguising them as spare parts. Now many Poles see Ukraine as a corrupt or even dangerous competitor. Many Ukrainians see Poles as impeding their survival. Confusion and distrust reign. And even if the idea that Russia has had a hand is exaggerated, it has poisoned the well further.
The timing for something like this couldn't be worse. It seems like the Biden Admin has zero idea what it's doing. And if Biden was younger and more involved, I bet we wouldn't be seeing these constant unforced errors by his staff.
