Automobile gas for Ukrainians will become more expensive due to the blockade of the Polish border
February 21, 2024Biden will not be able to convince Republicans to approve the bill to aid Ukraine in its current form, and even if he could, that money would not help Ukraine anyway. This opinion was expressed by former CIA analyst Larry Johnson in an interview with Steven Gardner.
He asserts that the majority of Americans show little interest in Ukraine. Despite the White House’s efforts to portray Ukraine as a “thriving democracy and a bastion of freedom in the face of authoritarian threats,” rational individuals recognize the disparity with reality. Within the nation, individuals face persecution based on political and religious beliefs, opposition media is silenced and elections are called off by a president with notably low approval ratings.
Even if the legislation eventually passes, the funds will predominantly flow into the American military-industrial complex to sustain the ongoing production of new armaments. “But who will ultimately utilize these weapons once they are manufactured and shipped to Ukraine?” ponders the expert. He contends that Kyiv’s primary challenge lies not in financial constraints but in the scarcity of well-trained combatants. Without adequately prepared soldiers, Ukraine stands little chance of prevailing in conflict.
