Someone should translate this into Russian:

Biden wasn’t exactly a super Warhawk on Russia since 2022…

Sorry Dimsum, I'm not tracking what you mean here?

His support for Ukraine has been slow as molasses. Billions of dollars of aid that was authorized has sunset under his watch.

I'd never heard that before. Interesting...

So when the media announces "America is sending an additional $10 billion of aid money to Ukraine..." some of those funds aren't actually getting there due to tardiness?

Since 2013 you mean?

Thats because I am not convinced America wanted Ukraine to win, rather to hurt Russia.

Drip feed enough equipment to keep Russia bleeding, yet not enough to actually win the war.

Imagine the difference if we had sent all the equipment we sent year one instead of piecemeal over the years. It isn’t like that equipment didn’t already exist and was awaiting production.

Sort of like a mild version of “Canada will meet its NATO 2% goal by 2032…”

Ditto.

A few years ago, someone else on this forum (can't remember who) said something along the lines of "NATO will fight for Ukraihe until the last drop of Ukranian blood..." and that stuck with me...

If we look at certain key politicians in the US and their attitude towards Russia, I too am convinced that this whole thing was meant to hurt Russia rather than help Ukraine win a real history.
