Seems to me they need to stop digging a hole and at least seek a cease fire and start some talks so it doesn't go to 511 billion. But, Ukraine won't. I am trying to figure out what that means seeing as I cannot believe what either side is reporting. Does it mean that if zelinski does not do the west's bidding he is done or does it mean that the negative reports about the condition of Russia's military are true and the Ukie's know they will be able to break Russia by this summer and get their land back. Just have to wait and see.
The United States has offered Slovakia 12 new military helicopters as compensation for the MiG-29 fighter jets the European country is giving to Ukraine, Slovakia's defense minister said Wednesday.
Under the offer, Slovakia would pay $340 million for the Bell AH-1Z attack choppers in a deal worth about $1 billion that also includes 500 AGM-114 Hellfire II missiles and training, Defense Minister Jaroslav Nad said.
U.S. foreign military financing would cover the other $660 million, he said. The European Union also would send Slovakia 200 million euros ($213 million) in additional compensation, Nad said."
Holy shit we're getting rinsed lmao. Bell gets a contract for $1 billion in hardware, Slovakia only has to pay 14% of it, and the US and EU taxpayers pick up the rest.
