    That’s an interesting headline… what did they expect instead? “After 18 months of only giving Ukraine a fraction of what we can spare for laughs and giggles we now probably need to actually support them for once to replace the missing US aid”?

      Are you really that daft? In one year the aid sent to Ukraine exceeded the entire annual military budget of Russia

        You are really not getting the most obvious sarcasm possible?

            I was arguing that “The EU can’t replace US support” isn’t news. Just like “the US can’t replace EU support wouldn’t be news”. That’s basically just saying the EU (or US) is not able to just double their support on a whim. If they could it would also mean they gave only a fraction of what they could give for no actual reason but letting someone else do the work.
