[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We keep being told to pour more money in this conflict while the Ukranians are “winning.”

Time to cut our losses.[/quote]

Cut our losses?

You're kidding, right?  We've only spent what works out to a few percent of our annual military budget and in return we've seen Russia's military capabilities getting gutted and Russia going bankrupt.  We are eviscerating a major geopolitical threat.   It's glorious.  I say we keep going, full tilt ahead.

Get out of here with your dippy "cut our losses" crap.

doesn’t look like the money is going towards critical supplies needed by UKR hospitals and doctors, though.  Where’s the money going?

There's nothing in this article that suggests corruption. Rather it is an issue of purchasing Chinese made tourniquets, which have a high defective rate.  It's more of a quality control in supply chain issue - not corruption.

Also the dearth of medical training is not corruption-related.  It's just a function of a less than ideal match between training provided by allies for Ukrainian troops and the reality in the field.  Ukraine is experiencing a huge number of amputation injuries because of the massive Russian shelling that characterizes this war.

Neither of those issues are a question of "where is the money going"? [/quote]
