Oh dear. A difficult issue for the simple-minded. Just settle for 'several billions', then calm down, and then enjoy the rest of your day.

Sure.

Just what I expected from the sharp-minded who have arithmetic issues.

For the rest of us 200B is a lot of money.

Have a great day!

Another official remarked, “We created a monster with Zelensky. And these Trump-deranged Europeans who won’t send troops are giving him terrible advice.” A third added, “In the course of a week, Zelensky rebuffed President Trump’s treasury secretary, his secretary of state, and his vice president, all before moving on to personally insulting President Trump in the press. What did Zelensky think was going to happen?”  

Is it Zelensky's plan to alienate Trump et al to the point that they immediately stop supporting Ukraine, and he can say that it was Trump's fault that Russia won? Unless he is a moron, he must know that it's over and when it comes to peace, the populace will be out to get him, so he needs a cover story to deflect from as to why he led Ukraine to ruin.

I don't think so.

He is transactional, what's in it for me is his guiding thought

Everyone ascribes trumps actions to some master plan and cunning.

But he has no plan and is definitely not cunning

He does not have meetings with his own aides, gives them no guidance and offers no insight because he has none

He fires off tweets at 3am depending on how wronged he feels, and loves to give bloviating speeches about how great he is and how wrong everyone else is.

Right now he's fixated on minerals that he has no idea of what they even are.

Next week will find another shiny object that he must have and the cycle will continue

He is literally the dumbest person in every room he enters

and yet the "dumbest person in every room he enters" got to be POTUS, the most powerful position on the planet.

You must have supported Harris then .

And now Turkey is entering the game, on Zelensky's & Ukraine's side. This will jolt the Europeans in to action.

 

A little down the track & Trump will be irrelevant for Ukraine's defence. Only one loser in that: Trump & Usofa.

You cunningly omit to mention it's only about whether Ukraine should be in NATO or not, and not support as in weapons and money. That's what happens when you omit any links.

It was sarcastic meaning he will be forced to adopt the Russian version off his name and be called Vladimir
