Kaliningrad:
Ukraine is winning but they have more dead soldiers than Russia that is losing.

Western propaganda logic.

CaseSensitive:
Chief, if you don't know what you're talking about, it's ok not to say anything you know? America has spent more than $180 billion dollars on Ukraine. In the same period, the whole of Africa didn't receive 10% of that in aids (in form of USAID). And if you don't know, those money that America send to Africa not for charity. They are for covet strategic reasons such as business friendly laws that favours America's businesses and interests, they are for encouraging US institutions, discouraging the influence of Russia and China, part of those aids are funding certain media in Africa. It's also been uncovered that those "financial support" funds the boko boys in Nigeria.

So no Chief, they are not "financial support". America is not a charity. They're giving the money to protect their interests and grow their influence.

Onlinetutor7:
I don't think financial loss is a basis for the truce, because West African countries have gotten more financial support from U.S than Ukraine since the War started.

The reason for the truce is that TRUMP is a man of peace and never supported the war in the first place.

You may need to study American yearly budget to understand that the military aid going to Ukraine since the war started is just an insignificant fraction of their military budget.

CaseSensitive:
180 billion dollars is NOT an insignificant fraction of America’s budget. America has the largest military in the world with more than 750 military bases across the globe. America has more than 2 million military personnel in both active service and reserve. Where do you think their salary comes from if not from the military budget? Retirement benefit and healthcare for service member, where do you think the money come from?

And maintenance of those 750 military bases abroad and the military infrastructures at home? The military budget covers the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Space Force etc. The military budget also covers research and development, operations, military constructions etc.

You “studied” America’s annual military budget but forgot to research how it’s spent. So no, that $180 billion dollars (and probably counting) is not an “insignificant fraction” of their budget. They simply have no more money to spend fighting Ukraine war. Trump made that clear to the Europeans but the Europeans themselves are broke.

Onlinetutor7:
You made a wrong assertion in saying the war in Ukraine is having financial stress on the America economy.

The amount you quoted is just a small fraction of America military budget, not even American budget as a whole.

As for all you wrote as regards the USAids to Africa those are just propaganda.
As someone that works in the Medical field I have seen the positive effects of those Aid in my line of profession.

If those Aids are not needed, we wouldn't be taken them.

Onlinetutor7:
Each of those area of military funding are taken into consideration in the budget.

$180 billion is similar to what the Military spends on just Research and Testings for a year.

That amount cannot shake the Military budget, let alone the whole budget. Let alone causing financial strain on the economy

And if truly they are carrying out a proxy war in Ukraine, the $180 Billion is being put in proper use, because it allows for real time assessment of Russia capabilities from the comfort of being a proxy. Since they are already spending as much in Research on advancing just to be above their rivals

omoadeleye:
Ukraine should just stop the war, they are suffering heavy casualties

CaseSensitive:
If you're fighting a proxy war, constantly depleting your own weapons and defence systems, losing billions of dollars in the process while your country is in huge debt and you're not winning the war while the citizens of your own country are lamenting about inflation and public opinion is waning away from Ukraine. What do you do? You call a truce. Let's use some common sense.

Some people from Nigeria will go and import those trucks from Russia and be using it to carry frozen food up and down this country

How many years did it take the US to lose in Afghanistan again? 20 years.

Afghanistan strong pass Ukraine abi? Afghanistan receive military support from 50 nations like Ukraine?

SSpeter:
Firstly Afghanistan was not a full scale war, of the US vs Afghanistan. The US aim was not to claim territory, rather it was to remove the Mujahideen from power. The US achieved this swiftly , what followed next was a guerrilla fashion by a pocket Alqeda fighters whom were doing sabotage and hit and run. After 3 months of fighting there were no structured army in Afghanistan. Also note that Afghan and the US do not have borders hence it involved huge logistical processes. But Ru

But the Taliban are still in power. 😂

This is what happens when you make a clown the president.
Whatever got into Ukrainians to think they could easily unravel Russia needs to be investigated.
A totally avoidable war has now gulped hundreds of thousands of able bodied men.

B8g shame..

SSpeter:
After the war the Taliban were removed, years later the majority of Afghan wanted an Alqaeda regime and they got it
