Ukraine is the underdog here. Russia was supposed to be the superpower that didn't need anybody, but all that has been exposed as a farce.

Oncourse they did. The weapons super store is now open. And there giving out point cards and credit.

What else would you expect.

But the yanks just give ‘em away….double standards much???

It is true, what you write.

We (U.S.A.) do at times give away weaponry and assistance out when needed or when fight ain't fair.

You have a problem with leveling the battlefield? News for ya, the world is in quadruple standard mode.

We like to give our allies high grade intelligence too. As well food and water, and what ever comes with the full package. (free at times)

What ever it takes to get the Win.

And we got the best stuff in the world too.

Why else would Muscovia bother with the kingdom of Kim except when it needs to grovel for weapons for its failing “second army in Ukraine”.

Yep, the “West” including the USA and Japan are providing arms and support to a sovereign, democratic country that has been genocidal attacked by a rabid neighbour. If any fascist fans and supporters don’t like it, tough.

English,the US do not care about Democracy,only if can serve it need ,the US support for Ukraine is a failure,most Americans see this clown Kirby as failure

Besides Panama and a few other backwater places the US has not won any wars since WW II but we sure have spent a lot of money and destroyed or helped destroy so much culture around the globe and peoples.

We do not want to contact aliens. We would become a global farm. Invalid CSRF

Russia pleading with the worlds worst nations to arm its terrorist state to allow it to continue to terrorize and eliminate the peace loving Ukraine people.

What a horrible thing to realise your a citizen of a terrorist nation intent on murdering what amounts to distant relatives in a neighboring country. Very hard to live with that knowledge and knowing you might in some small way bear some of the responsibility for all the death and destruction your country has caused. Sympathies to the good Russians who want no part in this war and who abhor their leaders for starting it and ensuring it will not end soon enough.

To those nations that are selling weapons to Russia to continue their invasion, they and their people also bear some responsibility for all the death and destruction Russia causes with the weapons they supply, I hope you do not sleep well and that your nations pay a heavy price for their treachery.

Ukraine has also been 'exposed' using Russian manufactured munitions, captured from the Russian invaders. That is very likely the same source of the NK Grad rockets - they were captured from the Russian invaders. In other words, NK is already selling Russia munitions.

When the Russians did it to the Chetchens that was fine, but when Ukraine defends its own territorial integrity it is not acceptable. Another two faced hypocrite posting rubbish. This was started by Russia, to give it some lame excuse to intervene. This is all on Russia and nobody else. You already knew that, but keep the lie alive long enough and maybe someone will believe it. So sad.
