There is a strong possibility that the meeting between Putin and Trump will result in agreement. Putin is in the position to ask for it all. He might demand an election, the occupied territories, and Ukrainian neutrality. All these ideas have been teased.π§΅6/17

I've been fricking with redditors by saying this, except from an American perspective.
"America is selling Ukraine out!"
Neighbor, America can't do shit. Europe has a larger population and GDP than Russia. You guys can offer Ukraine military aid. And I mean actually sending it, rather than committing to do it and then not do it (see Figure 2 - Europe has committed to sending β¬34 billion more in aid than the US, but the US has actually send β¬2 billion more than Europe). Go get the European armed forces together and repel Russia.

the bulk of EU aid also went to civilian stuff in Ukraine, not military while it was the opposite for America
EU also planned to make plans to increase artillery shell manufacturing, but go bogged down in debating who gets factory $$ and red tape (NIMBYs/environmentalists didnt want shells being tested near new factories) and while the US actually ramped theirs up within a year

Yeah it's completely r-slurred when a geopolitical block that has 500 million people and a $23 trillion GDP is moralistically demanding that a country that has a 330 million population and $27 trillion GDP must help it with its geopolitical initiatives against country that has a 150 million population and a $2 trillion GDP, lol.
