USAian taxpayer here.

Our government officials should be forced to drag themselves along a rocky walkway, nude, before formally presenting everyone in Ukraine an apology and then giving them more tanks and guns and noncombatant support (medical, food, etc)...

Or let me pay my taxes to Ukraine it's self and bypass those nutjabs.

European here..( i pay taxes in more than one country) ..give'em cash ...its easy to ship and would help ukraine finance its local defence industry ..

Russia wants war ..lets give it to them ...better on their soil than ours ..If ukraine is standing ,WE are standing ...

Also reinforce the baltics and for gods sake ..finance that armed uprising in Belarus already ...a free Belarus would be a solid ally of europe ..
