More baseless claims from you! Where is your evidence that hundreds of millions of dollars missing? You have nothing!

And how do I "prove" my assertion? By way of source that doesn't exist because the media is bought and paid for?   

 

How many mansions does Zelenskyy have around the world?  What about his wife?  His buddies?  What about the Ferrari's and the Lamborghinis and the Bugattis?  Don't tell me those are a fantasy. 

 

Do you seriously want everyone to believe that if an honest audit were conducted, that audit would show that Zelenskyy was penniless?  And if not, did he get the money from the tooth fairy?

And you have nothing to prove it did not go missing. So why argue about it just because you disagree? 

Are you kidding? It's not possible to prove a negative. I posted a CSIS analysis showing facts discrediting the claim made by jas007.

May I remind you that it's the person who makes a claim who needs to provide evidence? 🤣

Correct, but it is also the person being accused to provide proof the accusation is incorrect when it comes to government and money missing. 

Take the old man robbed by a street whore. I am most certain he has no proof but the police are actively searching for the woman to arrest her.

As usual you reply with a lame conspiracy theory (the media hide it). It's so convenient! 🤣

Hey, I thought you kept that phrase exclusively for me.

When people make claims they cannot support with reliable evidence, they "have nothing". That includes you!

Quote from your post:

"Wasn't it Zelenskyy himself who said that half the aid supposedly furnished by the US was never received? To be sure, there was some question as to where the money went, but if Ukraine didn't receive it, where did it go? Who is lying?"

 

It seems you are reproducing baseless MAGA propaganda. Zelinski did not claim that $100 billion vanished. Just that Ukraine actually did not receive it.

 

The premise of your whole reasoning is flawed.

 

Several reasons for not receiving, in particular:

- 60% of the money was spent in the U.S, and not only on weapons, also on training, logistics  services etc...

- not all what had been pleged had been actually sent at that time. There had been frequently long delays between decisions and deliveries.

 

Here's the conclusion of a detailed analysis made by the CSIS:

 

"Regardless of how Zelensky did the math, the bottom line is the same: no money is missing. Also important is that most of the money is not delivered directly to Ukraine but handled by trusted agencies, mostly the U.S. military, the Department of State/USAID, and the World Bank. The image of pallets of cash being sent to Ukraine is inaccurate. This doesn't say whether the United States should or should not provide more aid, but it does provide better information for making that decision."

To start with, it's Russian propaganda.

 

I also previously commented and linked a CSIS analysis debunking this claim with facts.

 

But maybe you would trust this one? 🙂

 

"On Feb. 5, 2025, General Keith Kellogg, President Donald Trump's special envoy for Ukraine and Russia, reaffirmed that the $174 billion of U.S. aid to Ukraine is accounted for and being distributed through a transparent process:

“The United States, the American people, the U.S. citizens have given Ukraine over $174 billion. And we have put inspector generals on the ground in Ukraine and here to track that money. So, we have fairly good reporting on where it’s going,” Kellogg said on the Newsmax TV channel.

Kellogg also confirmed that part of the allocated funds has been used to produce weapons in the U.S. before being sent to Ukraine, while other parts were spent on replenishing and expanding U.S. weapons stockpiles."

I keep trying to respond, but every time I get something typed out, some devious person resets the app and deletes it all.  So I have to find a work around.  It's sad when someone thinks that playing games is the only answer. I guess they can't handle the truth. Anyway, the interference is not a fluke. Just deliberate nonsense.

Isn't your phone is a bit old so the OS is not updated any more?

Or are you still using the Thaivisa app?

I'm on a Mac desktop. The new Mac4 Mini and the desktop app, I believe, if there is such a thing.  It stays on my dock and is separate from the Safari browser.  I always have the latest updates. 

 

Whatever is going on, I'm pretty sure it's deliberate. 

 

And for whoever is running this site:  do you want an active sire with posters?  Or are you OK with a site that pushes a political agenda, only?   It's not as if ASEAN is the only website on the World Wide Web.

Maybe simply try to access it on the browser?

 

There are sometimes compatibility issues with AN on specific environments. For example, until recently I was not able to click on any AN banner in the lower part of my Samsung tab's screen.  For example,  I had to reload to see new messages because I couldn't click on "see new messages". It was ok a few months ago, then it did not work, and now it seems to be OK again. Probably related to updates on either AN or my tab.

 

You can report your problem to them.

If I thought it was a random occurrence, I would do just that. But if I had to bet, I'd say it's deliberate. It mostly happens on controversial issues.  What are the chances of that being random? 

 

Anyway, I think I'm mostly talking to myself on here anyway.  Too many people are brainwashed and only believe in their "agenda."  And the person in the background "randomly" resetting the app thinks they're performing a valued service.  

 

If I'm not back on here, I wish everyone well.

Where is the confused emoji.

 

Sure mate, moderators are reading with you, don't like what you're writing so reset your app.
