“There should be a Western presence in Ukraine delivering the training of Ukrainian armed forces on their territory.”

Nato troops on the ground in Ukraine makes the consequences of the Russia-Ukraine war “very clear to Putin”, says former armed forces minister James Heappey.

"Why I’m #Voting Against the #MilitaryBudget"

While so many #Americans struggle to get by, the #US is spending #recordbreaking amounts of #money on the #military

It isn't. The regime in #Moscow was planning to spend way more than *seventeen times* as much:

"#Russia has an ambitious 2024 revenue target of 👉35.1 trillion roubles👈 ($391.2 billion) next year, a 22.3% planned increase year-on-year, based on assumptions of high...
