"Zelensky couldn't raise much money in Europe,..."-johnfibs
Of course Ukraine has received more aid from Europe than it has from the U.S..
johnforbes and Trump keep lying about the U.S. sending $350 billion in aid, which is untrue. According to the U.S. Government Accountability Office and the U.S. Department of State, Congress has appropriated about $174 billion in aid, not $350 billion. johfibs made it up.
This is what Trump's own Department of State website says about the numbers as of March 4, 2025, but this won't stop johnforbes from repeating his lie about the $350 billion bullshit:
"To date, we have provided $66.5 billion in military assistance since Russia launched its premeditated, unprovoked, and brutal full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, and approximately $69.2 billion in military assistance since Russia's initial invasion of Ukraine in 2014."

There has been another $38 billion in financial and humanitarian aid.
Europe has sent more total aid than the U.S. has sent.

"Thus, little Zelensky may yet be dragged -- kicking and screaming -- to the conference table to negotiate belated peace in Ukrainie."-Dishonestjohn
johnforbes is pretending that it is Zelensky's choice not to be included in negotiations. But the fact is Zelensky has been BEGGING to be allowed at the negotiation table in Saudi Arabia. It is Trump who has so far been saying "fuck you" to Zelensky about attending the peace talks. Dumbfuckforbes is also equating Trump's (as he calls it) "raw earth" deal negotiations as being some sort of peace talks when they aren't. (Trump is so ignorant that he doesn't even understand that he is trying to steal "rare earth" minerals, not "raw earth" from Ukraine.) It's a Trump money and resource grab without any security assurances to Ukraine and is totally separate from the actual "capitulation to Russia" talks Trump held in Saudi Arabia.
johnforbes has been duped again by his handlers.
