The
U.S. Air Force has announced that it is ordering AMRAAM missiles worth $1.15
billion from Raytheon Missiles and Defense to supply to Ukraine, the U.S. Department of Defense reported on June 20.
If you’d been paying attention you’d notice that since 2014 the Ukrainians have been modernising there political and military. The previous governments were infamously corrupt and were dislodged by a popular uprising. This government has made great strides to uproot systemic corruption. It’s not perfect but they are certainly improving and need to be encouraged in this and their efforts to dislodge the Russian invaders.
Simply parroting Russian talking points (eg: corruption) will not do.
The money goes to the American military industrial complex. We aren’t writing Ukraine a check for them to make/buy the weapons themselves. Ukraine will receive the weapons, while the weapon manufacturers, here in the USA, laugh their way to the bank.
You have a right to be upset at our military budget and how it’s spent, but when you are so grossly negligent on how our government functions nobody is going to take you seriously.
What has corruption got to do with Russia invading them?
It has to do with our leaders funneling our tax dollars through their war, obv.

Lol. Someone hasn’t read the Pandora papers.
Sounds like a great use of tax dollars.

So what is the alternative? Let bigger countries invade other countries, just because no country is perfect enough to receive outside help?
