I get you're not happy, and I'm also unhappy at our shitty European leaders who got cozy with Putin and got us dependent on their gas imports instead of going for energy self sufficiency like the US, so our heating bills were basically funding his war machine which is now being used against you, but claiming we're not doing everything we could is a bit exaggerated, no offence.
We obviously can't mobilize NATO boots on the ground in Ukraine, but in Romania, Moldova and other not so wealthy neighboring countries, people are offering their cars and homes for the Ukrainian refugees for free, and the entire West public and private sector, has been helping Ukraine fend off Russia's cyber attacks on your country since the war started, with the US and Microsoft leading the charge and even Romania joining in[1].
I honestly hope the sanctions are hurting Russia enough to back off soon because I don't know what more we can do to help you without straight up going to war.

- EB-Barrington 5y ago"but claiming we're not doing everything we could is a bit exaggerated, no offence" You said it yourself - you are FUNDING this war. Honestly, no offense taken.
- ChuckNorris89 5y ago>you are FUNDING this war. I know, but it's not like we (the average people) have much choice in the matter. Our stupid politicians screwed us over (and you too) and got us addicted to Russian gas over the course of decades, instead of pursuing nuclear energy double time. Now, we can't just flip the gas switch off without society collapsing from massiv energy shortages. It will take many years until the dependency to Russian gas is reduced and by that time Ukraine might not be in one piece.
