i agree, and have said so before:

"#IMF believes funding #Ukraine now is more cost-effective for partners than to risk its defeat"

essentially: forget the moral arguments

not that morality doesn't matter, but you don't even need morality to make a coherent argument to support ukraine

if #russia wins the next step will be much more expensive for the #west than stopping russia in ukraine

#europe, it's on you now

the #usa just went full clown dementia

Ukraine has demonstrated that it is a reliable borrower with a sound debt repayment plan, making it more advantageous for its partners to provide funding now and prevent Ukraine’s defeat in the war.

"Russia Faces a Wave of Bankruptcies as Borrowing Costs Skyrocket"

#russia is on a devastating decline

any "peace" deal (meaning surrender, no peace without justice) in #ukrainewar gives russia time to recover

if you aren't airhead naive, take a wild crazy guess what russia will do after it recovers 🤔🤔🤔

#usa just died in regards to any international legitimacy, so it's all on you #europe:

give #ukraine everything

the pressure is working. slowly. but it is working

Russia Faces a Wave of Bankruptcies as Borrowing Costs Skyrocket
