Well, they should have known better, the memorandum is a pretty easy read. Only someone who has never read it would believe they were owed a percentage of our GDP, military hardware and protection.
Don’t get me wrong I support Ukraine’s endeavors Im just so sick and tired of the articles from the likes of the Kiev independent and their politicians thinking they’re owed something. IMO it’s just a distraction from their own ineptitude and corruption.
Something they should have done a long time ago was to mobilize, train and arm, but for over thirty years they sat there like a bump on a log. Hell, even now they’ve been hesitant to mobilize. Now I get to see articles out of Ukraine placing blame for everything that’s gone wrong on U.S. political parties. Continuing with THAT kind of b.s. is a sure way to lose my support.
