The war in Afghanistan vs a tribal group costed to USA near $110 billion per year. For less than that USA can test and help destroy one of their biggest enemies, and without a single man down. They can't waste such an opportunity.
I agree... But as an American taxpayer I can't support paying to defense another country's border BEFORE we defend our own!
No other country in the world would, yet we do... It's Disgusting!
@@brandonfarris3335These two issues have absolutely nothing in common, illegals crossing into America from the southern border has been a problem for the last 40 years, both parties have had more than enough time to resolve that problem and haven’t, now they want to tie this issue to the stability of Europe, Americas #1 trading partner?
@@ZootyZoFo That's your opinion... As an American taxpayer I refuse to pay to stop the invasion of others borders BEFORE ours are secure. It's really a very reasonable request!
We have RECORD numbers to the tune of 10 million plus under Biden and it's INTENTIONAL!
Every other citizen of every other country on the planet would have my exact same position if it were their country being invaded.
@@brandonfarris3335 Then stop funding maga. Those idiots blocked the bipartisan deal to shut down the border.
As an American I’m very upset we waited so long. I hope this doesn’t happen again.
@@NewBeginnings413 A country where the people give their lives to fight off global threats, seems like Ukraine is doing the hard work on behalf of all of us who dont want to live in authoritarian fascism. You keep doing your work for Putin, youll lose and still be poor and hateful like Russia.
Thankful has nothing to do with it! They are fighting for freedom and democracy. Those things used to mean something to the USA and the other allies.
I wouldn't worry about the wait, the false hope this provided to Putin has been one of the worst things to happen politically. 😃
@@NewBeginnings413 who says that Ukrainian are not thankful
Even those who criticize USA for delaying aid begin they words with a gratitude to the USA for its full support
Thank you USA🇺🇸.
UKRAINE IS FIGHTING FOR HER LIFE - HAVE TO BE STRONG !!!!!!!
NO NATO IS FIGHTING FOR ITS LIFE ! ukraine is just cannon fodder
Ukraine is on a yet-to-arrive ventilator, and when that arrives, Ukraine has to run to its 'partners' and ask for oxygen.
No point wasting money on a patient that cannot revive.
@@johnadam2885 The combination of a failed war abroad and a brittle, strained system at home is increasing the likelihood of some sort of implosion inside Russia.

@@PABCOM1 ' They will survive, considering reconstruction of Ukraine would require a lot of resources which will draw a lot of investors in. '
Do you think Russia will allow NATO and EU countries to set their foot in Ukraine to reconstruct it ? They went to war to stop the NATO imprint and they are winning.
Only Russia will reconstruct Ukraine. After Ukraine signs unconditional surrender. Get it ?
You are dumb like the collective west. They held 2-3 Ukraine reconstruction conferences already - when Ukraine may not exist ! They are just passing time and showing off when they are defeated. The west want to hold a peace conference in Switzerland where Zelensky will be invited to give his peace plan - without Russia ! His peace plan is Russia should give up Crimea and surrender.
I don't know how your mind works.
'Not to mention Russia would be in sorry states for a very long time due to many reasons.'
Care to explain what those many reasons are ?

Thanks, as always, TR, for educating this old Texan with a broader perspective about the world as seen through the eyes of our friends across the pond!
Your friends across the pond see you as a sucker. 'The Americans will pay for it.'
And this allowed them to divert their defence funding into social welfare programmes. Same for your friend north of the border.

Outstanding I struggled to understand what ecactly what was going on great interview with 2 switched on guys, brilliantly delivered 👍
Saying that no amount of aid will ever be enough is wrong headed and will just be used by your adversaries in the American congress against you, what are you thinking?!?!!
Yeah, this dude is crazy. He can't make one argument without contradicting himself ten times... He blames Europe for being slow in delivering weapons and, yet, he says nothing about Ukraine (in a time of existential danger) lowering the age of compulsory military enlistment... He's bs!!!
100%. This guy is a massive liar
@@darkEagle1977 Wow, it's almost like the amount of mobilization needed is directly related to the amount of military aid. The more military equipment one has, the less manpower losses there are. Simple math. There's nothing crazy or contradictory about that.
@@rafflesmaos What about in the fact that Ukraine hasn't lowered the minimum age for military enlistment? Don't you think that that is contrdictory? I mean, after all, the whole contry is being threatened and they hardly mention the topic, and when they do talk about it, they say that happens to preserve the youngest ones in Ukraine. If that is the case, then either Russsia is not dangerous or the politicians are lying...
@@darkEagle1977 They did lower it, to 25. They avoided doing so because of the hope that the West would properly ramp up support, so that they can fight with the numbers they have. Instead, the support from the West has been very problematic and restrictive.
Don't underestimate puttin. You know what his capable of.

I think us with the delay of desicions and a couple of people not interesting to help ucraine have cause the caotic situacion that ucranians soilders and givilians are having now. Europe also is a reflection from us letting putin advance and treath the whole global situacion .

As an American I was very disappointed in the Republican Party. I will make sure my vote counts this election.
As an American I'm very disappointed in the Democrat party... They choose not to protect our border but protect other countries' borders... It's Disgusting!
I will be voting accordingly... 😘
@@brandonfarris3335 Actually, the Dems did try to protect the border. They had a bipartisan agreement. There was just one man in control of his entire party, that did not want a solution, because he benefits from suffering...
@brandonfarris3335 Understandable. I get it. I would say that you should probably care quite a lot about Ukraine being invaded and stopping Russia if you want to avoid world war 3. I would also say that yeah the US boarders definitely need securing better as well. The fentanyl problem alone should be evidence enough of that.
@@brandonfarris3335 Then please show your displeasure with the Republican Party twice over then, because the bill that was offered to would have protected the border that was practically a Republican Wish-List was torpedoed and killed by the Republican Party...and their leader, Trump.
Stopping the influx of illegal immigrants and supporting Ukraine are not mutually exclusive. As a Republican I support both, as do many others.
I feel bad about how long it took our democratic process in the USA to support Ukraine in its fight for life. I will caution you that in democracies and rule of law, we had to follow the process and make a case for the US to go into further debt for a key Western Country like Ukraine. I’m not happy with our process and we need to improve it. I do think from the Ukrainian standpoint possibly a little more gratitude and a little less criticism and media talking points would help your case for further aid. The EU can and should do more to secure Europe including Ukraine and as an ally we should do our part. God Bless the courageous citizens of democratic Ukraine and your tenacious and professional soldiers. Especially the “Finally the US has approved aid to Ukraine” comments from James makes him sound like a tool. The USA has provided 65-70% of all military aid for Ukraine and it is on Europes door step. The US right now has to borrow this money? If you want more aid so you don’t have to say finally, we used to share the expenses like in Gulf War 1 in 1990, we had cost sharing, Germany contributed billions to the US as did Japan, Korea, the Saudis, Kuwaitis, Emiratis and others for the cost of that conflict and many from the Middle East also contributed troops and weapons. Maybe Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Norway and the UK if they do not have the capacity to manufacture, you could cover 1/2 of the cost the US is providing to Ukraine? We always want to do our part in the USA towards peace and stability or in this case the defeat of Psychopathic Dwarf Putin, but the EU economy is as big as the US and this is on your door step. Stop criticizing your most loyal ally and dig in and do your part, or you encourage the election of an idiot like Trump to be our President, while you complain about him. Let’s work together and get it together!
I agree with everything you said.
As a Canadian, I agree with your criticisms. Even we here in Canada can be contributing even just a bit more to Ukraine to prevent the Russian expansion. I will also advise for Americans to accept the current criticisms they currently face. 6 months of no aid during an active war is a serious issue and one that dissolves confidence in having a stable ally. Like this Ukrainian said. From the onset of this war, Ukrainians had no doubt of American support for 1.5 years. That confidence has been reasonably shaken and it will simply take time to re-establish that confidence. If America can maintain a stable and consistent commitment to providing Ukrainian aid, your allies trust will ve restored in a very short time.
Thought we lost you guys for a bit there, glad to see you back, now hopefully all of the combined aid will help Ukraine end this tyrant and his regime of death in the Kremlin.
Ukraine is a not a key western country.
Western Preaidents and Prime Ministers including same for Indo-pacific allies should start listening to their Generals instead of nonsensical political discourses. This war would have been over if the Generals and Intelligence agencies had been given an ear.
While the delayed aid highlighted the unfortunate reality of weakened US and democratic values, it also served as a wake-up call for Europe. After World War II, Europe dismantled its defense complex, assuming that the US would always provide aid for economic reasons and national security. However, this overlooked the influence of propaganda from countries like Russia, China, and Iran, which exploit easily convincing talking points.
For instance, many Americans argue against aid and taxes without considering that US global superpower status is primarily for security reasons, akin to putting money in a bank for safety. Europe’s economy, worth 16 trillion, relies on US exports totaling $592.0 billion, with defense weapons constituting a significant portion. However, as the US adopts an isolationist stance, it risks losing its status as a global superpower and the dominance of its currency. This shift would also impact Asia and the Middle East.
The conflict in Ukraine threatens US global image and reliability, jeopardizing a combined GDP of 70 trillion between the US, Europe, and allies. This realization prompted Republicans to reconsider their stance. Trump understood his followers’ mindset, which is why he didn’t oppose the aid after it passed, recognizing its importance to US national security and future.
But Trump also understands his base’s limited and obvious lack of being able to understand why the US holds its position as the first and only world superpower in recorded history. They think the US can be and will retain its status even if it stops being what made it so. This disconnect underscores a fundamental misunderstanding among some Americans about the intricacies of global power dynamics and the importance of maintaining the factors that contribute to US dominance on the world stage.

The $60B is great news for Ukraine and her allies. The long delay was Trump's doing. Hopefully Europe will ramp up its weapons production. I never in my life, thought that I would say such a thing, the devil Putin has brought us to this terrible place.

Putin makes his gangster regime an economic and diplomatic pariah, adds Sweden and Finland to NATO, turns thousands of young Russian men into 200 and 300 cargo, and continues a war entirely of his own making. Putin is an international bungler on an epic scale.
@jim. All true but still a very dangerous bungling clown that needs to be stopped.
Check out the latest talk by Anders Puck Neilson. Putin intends to turn Ukraine into a failed state and then take control just like it has in Belarus, Georgia, Chechnya, etc.
But he has got the collective west by the scruff of the throat and there is not much you can do.
@johnadam2885 Putin hardly has the west under his control. Much has been done in supporting Ukraine to defeat russia. Yes, it has been far slower than it should be but Putin is not at all in a good situation at the moment.
@@7171jay Many would be rather be in Putin's position than in the hands of a marionnete who is ordered to fight a proxy war to the last Ukrainian.
'Much has been done in supporting Ukraine to defeat russia.' The talk now is try to stave off Ukraine from being defeated. There is no talk anymore of Ukraine defeating Russia. You need to keep up with reality.
The price for the waiting is very high.
We have our process here in the USA. You may be disappointed but we have to pay for your existence for some reason and need to discus that among ourselves. If we didn’t debate our decisions we wouldn’t be the USA and wouldn’t be here to help you. Sorry you were disappointed with how long we took to just give you 60 billion dollars.
Of course this was down to two elements. Trump must be held accountable and hopefully at the November elections . Can you imagine an ex politician interfering in war material supply in WW2 . He would be in arrested very quickly . It’s truly outrageous. Secondly Europe should have mobilised defence production months if not years ago
The EU must go to wartime economies and continuously flood Ukraine with aid. That is how serious the Russian threat is.
Nixon’s crew undermined Vietnam peace efforts prior to 68 election. Reagan’s undercut release of hostages from Iran to hurt Carter. US citizens got to spend an extra year in captivity not knowing if they would ever go home for political reasons.
But he isn’t in crisis is he!
I’m so t be up to 2-5% for 6 more years, so don’t knock the US people for calling the tEU & UK out for not pulling their commitments.

I guess Trump was right about that 2% should have said 4% if GDP.
Steady on Gents... the arms have to actually be built first.... and the ones we're sending now actually need to get there without Russia destroying them.

Isnt the point of sanctions on russian oil that we dont want anyone to be able to buy it? Totally hypocritical to be against Ukraine striking Russian oil facilities in my view. I don't know why this hypocrisy is never mentioned!
Illia is 100% correct. Escalation management is a losing strategy. As an American, I’m still pushing hard for further continued support to Ukraine until all their territory is returned to Ukrainian control and her infrastructure is rebuilt.
If you count the Black Sea, territory looks quite different from looking just at land.
No, the package ought to buy close to two years, and probably more. Either way, we probably need another package similar to this and perhaps a smaller one to close out Russia.
It is surprising and concerning that Ukraine hasn't developed a DIB. What is holding them back? Know how or something else?

This is mostly the same material as a previous upload.
Olaf Scholz...
Correct. And his predecessors Merkel and Schroeder. The rot goes deep in the SDP and CDU.
I’d like to see some tangible actions on the battlefield before concluding that Putin is defeated. I’ve heard this story too many times before yet Ukraine is losing this war as it stands today. Sure we want to see Russia’s army lose with this new aid package but let’s see it happen.
It is not an Aid package it is 60 billion dollars worth of weapons and ammunition for Ukraine to use against Russia . As this is not money like the US lies that it is it is all US manufactured war supplies made and sold by UIS Factories to the DOD for 30 billion IN PROFIT to the US economy . This is only the first of many shipments because if the US stopped making war materials it's second largest industry would collapse and the US would go into depression .
I'd like to feel like Salomé, the stepdaughter of Herod Antipas when she was presented a plate with the head of her enemy.
I like plates, that's why.
I totally agree. One thing I keep wondering is if Russia is so mighty and powerful, and the 'West' is so worried by Putin, why do they seem to be making such hard work of getting past the much smaller Ukraine. I wonder if the Russian might is somewhat overstated.
Russians tolerate huge losses. If something similar happened in the US, we'd have a million people protesting outside the White House.
@@PrideOfTorbaydo you realise that the US has never fought an army as strong as Ukraine’s and funded by more than 50 countries? The USA hasn’t even fought any war alone. Do you think if the US was in Russia’s shoes now they would be able to advance as Russia is doing? 🤣🤣 The US military has never truly be tested. As it stands now, Russia has the number 1 military in the world.

@White-iu5vh Winning or losing is not just about how much territory you have taken. Napoleon got all the way to Moscow. However, he was losing and just didn't realise it.
This is just another one of many similar arms shipments from the West to Ukraine. So don't try to make out it's a "gamechanger" like every other one wasn't. The J.S.A. sneaked atacm 300km. range missiles into Ukraine earlier in the year and they've proved ineffective.
USA has spent billions on helping ukraine Europe has spent billions if it wasn't for USA and nato ukraine would of been lost in the first year. Don't mock the hand that feeds you
If it wasn't for USA Ukraine would have been left alone and there would be no war
TR still in LaLa land I see.
Why does Ukraine feel U.S. pockets have no end, and has no economic issues of their own?
USA is using Ukraine and its people to fight Russia, and an excuse to launder money through the MIC
30 trillion dollars in debt
They print money when they need it
Talk about hostages, the American public has been one for a hundred years. I support Ukraine, I support the EU, but I'm so fatigued from getting force projection instead of health care and education for my tax dollars. This war needs to end decisively, everyone needs to step up like he said.
That's the burden that will never go away as long as there are psychopath dictators. Europe themselves doing more - sure, but don't be delusional into thinking free world can just go about peacefully - freedom needs to be protected and anyone willing to be free matters and counts, and you DON'T want to loose them to the enemy.
Oh please send more aid around the world. Till you are on your knees.
Ukraine striking Russian oil well, refineries and infrastructure has taken it's toll on putin's ability to continue his war.
The Russian military and economy are on the verge of complete collapse.
It largely depends on how much gold he is willing to sell to China.
Even so, I highly doubt his regime will survive 2024.

😂😂 Russian economy grew at 3.2% this year according to IMF.
While the IMF may be fooled by the russian MinFin, l, most definitely, am Not!!
This purported "growth" is largely due to putin's Special Military Operation against Ukraine. Cranking out war materiale.
That's like taking money from one pocket and putting it in the other.
That's not true growth. It's an accounting maneuver. Intended to make the Free World believe that the sanctions aren't working. It will result in the hollowing out of all other businesses.

US must “borrow” this money because little has been done to maintain military capacity in case of war with Russia or China. Ukraine will now receive our obsolete weapons, and those stocks will be replaced with up to date equipment.
By all means thank the Yanks, but do not forget they cannot be relied on!
I love how frank Prof. Lucas is, he is a delight.
Sounds like staying neutral for Ukraine was a far smarter idea than all this.
I understand that Russia is wanting to regain control of the old USSR ground because it is aware there is no appetite for war in Europe but I do not believe that Putin has desires over invading Poland or any other EU country, we do not want Russia to feel it is able to use military force for expansion into its borders as it empowers him on the world scene, the west has enjoyed working with lots of russian border states and obviously wanted that to continue, who is right or wrong here is a difficult one to call

Yes, this aid was slow to come, however, it's not just America that has been slow to help Ukraine. The EU and NATO could also have increased their aid to Ukraine. This particular commentator seems somewhat ungrateful; but, the United States is a democracy, and as much as we don't like Congressional opposition, this is the nature of our political system. Russia has transitioned to a wartime economy, as such, it will always outgun the Ukraine Army. Should the U.S. and Europe also transition to Wartime Economies to match that of Russia? If so, should NATO commit ground troops to Ukraine?
Where was Ukraine for the USA in Iraq and Afghanistan. They didn’t help us but now demand we help them and continue to complain that whatever we send is not enough. Ukraine sent $0 to help us. Ukraine is a user. All they do is complain that we aren’t doing enough when they never did anything for us ever
@@jimbobjim2310 You have to take in account that Ukraine was just starting to ramp up it's economy and it was relatively poor compared to most EU countries. That said as a European from a wealthy country, i can agree that Europe as a whole should step it's momentum bigtime to help support Ukraine with money. Luckely there finally seems to be some progress being made lately. We just can't let Putin win. You also have to realize that the US doesn't just send money overseas. They sent equipment, mostly older equipment. It will have to be restocked with new equipment, thus will create jobs and boom the economy in the US. Money creates money ...

@@boink800 Are you that guy who laughs at his own jokes? I fought to keep this part of the word free. And this w@r absolutely bs.
I hope people will remember these kind of videos, which are just straight up propaganda. Did Ukraine lack hardware and ammo when Russia pushed into Bakhmut and all the towns around it? Did Ukraine lack hardware and ammo when Russia stopped their largest counter offensive to date last year? No and no, in fact it was reported that during the counter offensive last year Ukraine caught up with Russia's artillery usage.. so did that change any sort of outcome? No.
Ukraine's largest issue is experienced soldiers, manpower.. which was beyond evident the last few days in Ocheretyne when one group got demolished and decided to flee the meatgrinder. How will the inexperienced soldiers Ukraine just mobilized handle such situations when experienced units couldn't? It's just complete cope. So again, remember these videos because by the end of summer when the mobilized units are out on the field and the aid is in full swing.. nothing will change for Ukraine and then by the end of the year, Ukraine will come asking for more to "turn the tide".
Disagree ..... Giving Ukraine aid is much cheaper than defending your own border from Putler thugs. You cannot negotiate with a mob boss. If we give in now , Putler will just regroup and continue when he has built up his forces again. He is mental and thinks he can re-create USSR. Russia has taken a 10 day victory into a 2 year grind. He will loose
😂 delusional. Ukraine has zero chance of winning because Russia has no choice but to win and they are far more powerful. Should be looking for a deal while Ukraine still has part of a country left
The delusion here is very strong 😂😂😂
Defeated? Really? Ukraine has help from 53 Countries and still Russia is gaining terrain almost every day, is that being defeated? Ukraine even had to withdraw Abrams tanks from the front line because they were being destroyed "too rapidly"
