US Senator: Spending to support Ukraine is the best investment in US defense

US Senator Mitt Romney said that the amount spent by the United States to finance the Kyiv regime does not exceed 5% of the country's entire defense budget. According to Romney, this spending is the best investment in US defense in their entire history. history.

The senator noted that at the same time, the US army does not suffer losses in manpower, but instead of them against Russia, nuclear weapon which is aimed at the United States, the Ukrainians are fighting. Thus, the United States is "downsizing and destroying" the Russian army, while losing a fairly insignificant investment compared to spending on other defense items.



According to the US senator, weakening Russia is the best thing that can be done for America, because a country with nuclear weapons aimed at the US "is getting weaker" as a result.

It is worth noting that the American senator is wrong when he claims that the United States does not suffer losses in the personnel of its army. It is hardly a coincidence that obituaries for the deaths of high-ranking American generals appeared in the United States immediately after Russian missile strikes on decision-making centers located in Ukraine.

In addition, having got involved in the Ukrainian adventure and staged a coup d'etat in this country, and after that indirectly conducting military operations against Russia with Ukrainian manpower, the United States may in the near future face serious difficulties when attempting a military invasion of countries with unwanted regimes - after all, Russia will inevitably provide military support to the next victims of American aggression.

      Correctly said and most importantly, frankly.
      -Yankees free their warehouses from illiquid assets while saving disposal costs. They sell to Ukraine at a modern price.
      - they bend NATO to give their weapons to Ukraine with the subsequent purchase of it from the United States.

        + In addition, observe the experience of modern warfare.

        + Weak and strong sides of a potential enemy.

        + As for "making Russia weaker," this is a double-edged sword. They make it weaker, but at the same time they provoke an internal economic policy in Russia that mobilizes it, and thus. makes her stronger than she was.

    According to Romney, these expenses are the best investment.

    Too early sums up Romney. We say: "Chickens are counted in the fall."

      The Vietnam War turned out to be the best investment in the defense of the USSR in terms of cost-effectiveness. So much so that the US decided to curtail it. The scale of OWN, of course, is much inferior to it, but it is not evening yet (or, as they put it, not autumn).

    The best investment because the costs are piled on the EU?

    I wonder if it will ever reach the Ukrainians that they are cannon fodder? Their owners tell them this quite openly.

      But this is not what they say to IM! Only "partners-allies" and "everything for us." Well, in English, so not everyone understands, so that they can also read the relevant press on the Internet.

    But he is right in many ways.
    It is we who do not want to admit that Russia is waging war against NATO.
    They are fighting against us with NATO equipment and NATO ammunition. according to NATO standards. Using NATO reconnaissance and guidance systems.
    While not the most modern technology. And not fully using reconnaissance and guidance systems.
    And who is in this NATO technology is not so important. Ukrainian, Pole, Romanian, Slovak, German, Englishman, Frenchman, American...
    All of them are trained according to the NATO system.
    Rations and first-aid kits are also NATO.
    All with NATO money.

      That's just 15 aircraft carriers, 10000 aircraft and 4 million NATO bayonets did not show up for the war. Here are the bastards.

    Yes, it's hard to disagree with him, especially considering how much profit the United States is now getting from this and how they "pressed" all their "sixes"

    Unfortunately, the West is the leader, and Russia is the leader in this war. A pathogen in the outlying problem - informational nature. The informational response should also be primary and main, physical impact only as a cleansing. Instead of treatment, there is a beating of the patient without eliminating the pathogen.

    it's a one sided vision
    1. Of course, we are suffering losses, but at the same time, the army is becoming more prepared and professional
    2. we were really not ready for modern wars, the concept is changing .. finally recognized that we need a low-orbit constellation of satellites. that before that they flatly refused to recognize. finally recognized that our Artillery is outdated and more long-range systems are needed. before that, they didn’t want to admit it. the same thing with aviation .. they used to think that it would do anyway .. the NVO showed that it would not do .. that is, the army is becoming much more combat-ready and ready for future wars

    Well, I don’t know, in Niger we don’t even provide political support.
