    That friend is the one who armed the Ukrainians.

    Before Trump, Ukrainian was not getting weapons from the United States. Trump gave them the javelin which was critical during the first offensive.

    Now second term I have no clue what he’ll do but by arming them, he gave Ukraine a fighting chance.

      I mean you don’t have to guess since he said it himself what he’ll do, and that is by letting Putin do whatever he wants in Eastern Europe :)

        Ukrainian government disagrees with you. I’ll take their word over yours.

        During an interview published by Ukraine’s New Voice on Wednesday, Kuleba expressed optimism that Trump would continue U.S. aid to Ukraine if he wins back the White House in November, saying that he "is a person you can work with, you just need to be able to work with him.

            Trump didn’t make the claim about Ukraine. Maybe you are lot aware, Ukraine isn’t part of NATO

              Oh, yeah, fair, my bad. Trump wouldn’t intervene to protect countries in the military alliance his country is a part of, BUT he will DEFINITELY intervene to help Ukraine.

                Nor should we intervene when countries won’t honor the treaty. American lives are valuable and if a country won’t honor the treaty expecting Americans to die for them, they shouldn’t expect that.

                He already was the first president to arm Ukraine. Ukraine has spoke highly of him as the article states for that reason. They know they wouldn’t have fought off the Russians when they invaded has it not been for trump.

                You sound like a Russian shill. Trying to add doubt to the person who armed the Ukrainians and if he has been in office, the war would have not escalated.
