At this point, it is a proxy war. Ukraine is running on US/EU loans and weapons. Even their targets decided by Washington.
Corruption cases among top ranks of Ukr government isn't helping either.
- UltraSane 2y agoHezbollah attacking Israel is acting as a proxy for Iran because they have no other reason to attack Israel (just ask Hassan Nasrallah). Ukraine fighting Russia is not because they don't want Russia in their country. You make some reasonable points but they are mixed in with extremely typical Russia talking points like "Corruption cases among top ranks of Ukr government isn't helping either." You want corruption? Putin's wealth is impossible to estimate because he can take money directly from the Russian treasure and also force many oligarchs to let him user their yachts and homes.
- an_guy 2y agoIsrael is taking over Palestine and nearby countries with support from US and EU. They are using hostages as an excuse[1]. So let's not go there. Ukraine proposed to join NATO and EU about a year before war. Both of which could bring significant money to Ukr. > extremely typical Russia talking points like... You want corruption? Putin's wealth... Once again, Ukraine is in debt of EU/US, NOT Russia or Putin. Corruption in Ukraine matters cause it's international debt. Top level Ukr officials are making billions, purchasing properties in EU and going on vacation while thier soldiers are running out of supplies. And who/how do you think this debt would be paid back? Who is profiting from this war? [1]https://www.thejc.com/news/israel/ben-gvir-outrage-blocked-hostage-deal-k9jw9ia8 https://www.thejc.com/news/israel/ben-gvir-outrage-blocked-h...
