US President-elect Donald Trump has campaigned on a promise to end America's involvement in wars.

Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned that Ukraine would lose the war if the U.S., its primary military supporter, cuts funding.

Speaking to Fox News, he stressed the importance of unity between the U.S. and Ukraine as Russia accelerates its territorial gains.

Zelensky acknowledged Ukraine’s challenges on the battlefield, despite new U.S. weapon supplies, including long-range missiles and anti-personnel land mines.

He criticized German Chancellor Olaf Scholz for engaging with Putin, calling it a risky move.

Trump has pledged to end the war quickly but offered no specifics.

    It doesn’t help that the US spends an ‘OBSCENE’ amount of money on their military for their own internal workings.

    It’s hard for any NATO member to justify more spending of their GDP.

    When everyone decides to build 2/tanks per cycle… and yet one entity is just pissing out 20/tanks per cycle,

    There’s so much oversupply in general, why would anyone else increase their output to 3/tanks?

    stretch that out over 50 years, and that’s where we are today.

      I think the why should be pretty obvious at this point.
