1, Ukraine's agriculture (the breadbasket of eastern Europe) Putin needs to feed his people

2, Ukrainians are a Russian people being held against their will.

3, Ukrainians want the protections of NATO

4, Ukrainians like the freedoms and rising living standards enjoyed by western Europe, Poland, Latvia...

5, Russian pipeline costing Russian oil businessmen billions annually in transit fees to Ukraine

6, Putin is a nationalist Teddybear and wants the Republic to get back together again.

7, Putin fears west military bases are too close to Russian border therefore Ukraine must rejoin Russia

8, Russian people are restless with their economy in the toilet therefore he needs a Margaret Thatcher war moment
to unite his country and bring about control once again.

They all appear to have strong (entrenched) knowing opinions on Trudeau vs Truckers

but have very little to say other than deflection from a very grave matter that has global consequences.

I like the comments that directly ape DJT’s comments.

None of them is a threat to US. Why should we get involved with taxpayers $ or our soliders' life?

Ukraine is a black hole and will remain a black hole for US and EU aids for long long time. It's deeply corrupted. 25% of its workforce are working abroad, not in Ukraine. This country has become sex capital of the world and sex industry is an important part of it's economy. Ukrainian prostitutes are everywhere in east Asia, just ask China about it.

I will say this. Since the Ukraine invasion no one cares about vaccines and masks. So there’s that.
