    So there has been a very large surge in equipment rolling into Ukraine since the November elections. Supposedly they have enough resources to sustain the war through mid 2026. So Trump knows that cutting off the weapons supply isn’t going to be enough to hand Russia a victory, so expect a lot more shit like this.

      US can stop approving HIMARs strikes, stop approving Patriot missiles from going up and prevent Starlink from connecting. And that’s without addressing this dubious claim in how much was delivered. Better face a reality than spread copium like this.

        They could do that. But stopping to approve Patriot Air Defense that other countries paid for is a recipe to never sell a single bullet in Europe or to someone else anymore.

          „They wouldn’t dare to do this” is not a very comforting reassurance with how things are going currently. I thought military industrial complex would prevent it but milk is already spilled.
