UN Secretary-General António Guterres on Monday:

"Ukraine is on fire. The country is being decimated before the eyes of the world. The impact on civilians is reaching terrifying proportions. Countless innocent people — including women and children — have been killed," he said addressing reporters.

Guterres added, "After being hit by Russian forces, roads, airports and schools lie in ruins. According to the World Health Organization, at least 24 health facilities have suffered attacks. Hundreds of thousands of people are without water or electricity. With each passing hour, two things are increasingly clear: First, it keeps getting worse. Second, whatever the outcome, this war will have no winners, only losers."

I wonder what kind of war reparations Dear Vlad should be required to pay?

Destroying an advanced European country is going to require a lot of dough, but Vlad is supposed to be worth up to 70 billion dollars, so he can afford it.

If Trump hadn't been "robbed" of the Presidency, do you think he would have supported Ukraine against Putin?

And do pigs fly?


Added:
The US and NATO are doing everything they can to support Ukraine short of risking nuclear war, WHICH PUTIN HAS THREATENED. You want more?

What do you propose the United States do besides arming Ukraine with some of our best high tech weapons, sharing our intel with them, providing economic and humanitarian aid, and coordinating with our allies to implement the most unprecedented and draconian sanctions in world history to bring the Russian economy to it's knees?

Turkey has the drones covered, and are sending more drones. . Ukrainian armed forces are trained on Turkish drones and know how to use them.

Fog of war.

There is no way we civilians know the extent of US military cooperation with Ukraine. A lot of it is undoubtedly classified and clandestine.

I wouldn't be surprised if CIA paramilitary technicians are operating drones on Ukraine's behalf.
