Ukraine to receive another $1.500.000.000

Ukraine will receive another $1.500.000.000 in financial support. This was agreed on at a donor conference in Denmark, Scandinavia.
    
This is a significant addition to a $4 billion loan guarantee that the United States had previously given to Ukraine.
   
“I am grateful to everyone who supported Ukraine in Copenhagen today and I believe that meetings like this one will accelerate our common victory,” Ukraine's president Zelensky stated.
    
The 26 nations, which included Scandinavia, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand, all promised to continue to support Ukraine’s military defense against Russian aggression.
    
Bødskov, the Danish defense minister, called Thursday’s donor conference the “third phase” of support to Ukraine. The first phase was immediate support at the beginning of the invasion in February when countries inspected their weapon armories. The second phase was coordinated international funding based on Ukraine’s requests, and the current third phase is a long-term plan to continue assistance – which could encourage the weapon industry to produce in larger quantities.
    
On Wednesday, the Danish Ministry of Defense said that close to 100 million kroner ($14 million) will support a British-led military training project for Ukrainian soldiers. As part of the project, 130 Danish soldiers will train their Ukrainian colleagues on Danish soil.
    
Norway will also train Ukrainian soldiers in the United Kingdom, Norwegian Minister of Defense Bjørn Arild Gram told Norwegian broadcaster NRK.
     
“The Ukrainian forces are in dire need of further training and education. Norway is positive about the British initiative to train Ukrainian soldiers in Great Britain. We will come with instructions to do basic soldier training, like several other countries,” he said.
     
With its the latest donation, Denmark has now contributed close to 4 billion kroner ($555 million) to Ukraine since Russia launched its invasion.

Eastern Europe is a hopeless case

Honestly, it is fair to say that Eastern Europe, just like Western Europe south of Denmark, is a hopeless case. Unstable governments, political chaos, pro-EU attitudes, as well as the unbreakable desire to incorporate shitholes like Kosovo and Crimea, make them a hopeless case for the Imperial cause. It is a sad truth, but although bitter, they simply share the fate of Germany, the UK, France, Holland and Belgium. They ceased to exist decades ago and are now, like Russia, facing full islamization and balkanization. The Empire is running from both - the EU and Russia. Neither is Christian rooted no more, and we don't want to be part of their hemisphere. Our only rescue is the Empire, in particular the United States. So let the Anti-Americans have their eurasian islamized superstate in the long run, we won't be part of it. Ukraine, Serbia and Russia will all celebrate victories, over themselves and their future.

Putin's lackey Donald Trump responsible for genocide in Ukraine

Putin's lackey in the Republican Party Donald Trump is directly responsible for genocide of Ukrainians by urging the GOP to block a vital aid package for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. As a result of this evil behavior Ukrainian soldiers are running out of ammunition and could even lose the war. In December 2023, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense updated its claim of Ukrainian military casualties to 383,000 killed and wounded, with 125,000 of these troops lost since the start of the counteroffensive. A vote for Trump is a vote for RuSSia. His promises on immigration are just the bait to convince Americans to vote for a catastrophe. That the Central American countries who are sending the illegal immigrants to the US border are all political allies of RuSSia, Trump of course won't tell.

Ukraine adventure could ruin us

      The Empire's Ukraine adventure could ruin us and make many Ukrainian oligarchs richer.      Since 'president' Zelensky categorically rejects territorial concessions to Ukraine's former ally Russia, the war could continue forever. Ukraine could become a bottomless financial black hole. We would face default in the long run, while Ukrainian and Russian oligarchs survive.         The Pentagon's strategy is problematic. Any money given must be tied to reforms, possible (realistic) territorial concessions, and a final political solution. Also we should be able to verify where the cash ends up.         Let's hope the US will further focus on a military alliance with Sweden and Finland, similar to the defense pact with Australia and New Zealand (ANZUS). This is most important for the Empire's stability. NATO failed in both Ukraine and Scandinavia and became almost useless.
