Fuck. I knew things were going badly for Ukraine, but not this badly.
The US is providing a lot of resources to Ukraine and the second Trump takes over the White House, Ukraine loses that support.
This is one of several things he's said in the last couple weeks. He essentially threw it out there during an interview to let NATO and Russia know that's a deal he'd take. He's also said they're going to fight until the Ruble reaches the center of the earth. (Not his exact words)
It's political messaging. They still have a lot of levers they can pull.
That’s good to know. Thanks!
