The Trump administration has reportedly paused all military aid to Ukraine.

The decision, reported by Bloomberg News, comes after a meeting between Trump and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House on Friday descended into chaos, the latest in a larger fraying of the U.S.-Ukraine alliance.

The president is reportedly reviewing whether Zelensky is willing to engage in good-faith efforts at making peace with Russia, a Defense Department official told the outlet.

    A tantrum that will allow more free people who want to join NATO and the sphere of American and European influence and economy to die while saving the lives of an invading genocidal army.

    And you choose this. Your ancestors would be disgusted.

      Saying that people who are kidnapped off the streets, who cannot leave the country (other than trying to cross “illegally” through mountains/rivers), who cannot vote, whose medias are controlled, saying that they are free is so fucking cruel.

      Trump is the people’s only chance of survival in Zelensky’s concentration camp.

        Or offer to give Ukraine 2 nukes if Zelensky steps down.

        Or help Ukraine join a bigger organization that can help them. offer them statehood like Canada.

        Better yet invade Russia right now. They can’t even take Ukraine. That will end the war.

        but no let’s stop them from getting weapons over minerals rights and offer no alternatives. So Russia keeps everything and more Ukraine lives are lost over something they didn’t choose. Russia is not known for forgiving population that gave them trouble. Just look at east Berlin.

          give them nukes / start WW3

          That’s a very good idea, but only as long as only people supporting this are going to die. So, you know, you but not me.

          more Ukraine lives are lost over something they didn’t choose.

          So let’s stop the war so that lives are not lost.

          Russia is not known for forgiving population that gave them trouble. Just look at east Berlin.

          Are you trying to tell me that people on liberated territories have it worse than people on Zelensky controlled territories? That’s absolutely incorrect. People on liberated territories are free and can leave at any moment. People on Zelensky’s controlled territories can’t.

            WW3? who’s supporting Russia? A country that can barely support a war effort with increasing the age recalling vets, up aged of conscription to 30, and using prisoners to fight battles. This whole thing started because Ukraine gave up the nukes they had in 1994 for protection that they didn’t get. America is was them what is agreeded upon. Russia is not. If you can’t honor a deal then give back the nukes.

            We both agree on stopping the war but bend over to appease the aggressor is not the answer. That didn’t work with Hitler either.

              WW3?

              So what in your opinion is going to happen if NATO/USA invades Russia? They will just give up and not nuke the shit out of NATO/USA?..

              We both agree on stopping the war but bend over to appease the aggressor is not the answer.

              Well, it doesn’t look to me like that…
              “End the war now by signing a peace deal” and “end the war that has been going on for three years where one side has been almost constantly losing more and more ground by trying to make that side win the war and return all lost land” are almost the exact opposite opinions if anything…
