As far as supplying arms...not really. Not at the moment anyway.. This situation has been a wake up call for them though.


Sure they can. But will they?

Here are all some recent stories that took a few moments to google.

APRIL 9, 2024 7:09 PM CET BY ANDREW MCDONALD AND ELI STOKOLS LONDON — Britain's top diplomat David Cameron insisted it's “profoundly in your interest” for the U.S. to pass a stalled package of aid to Ukraine, hours after a face-to-face meeting with Donald Trump. During a U.S. charm offensive — which included dinner with the Republican presidential candidate Monday — Cameron urged Congress to sign off on extra help for Ukraine in its war against Russia amid months of gridlock over the $60 billion package.

I'm talking specifically about the manufacturing of arms and weapons systems. Sholz can urge support, Macron can saber rattle, and Sunak as well as the rest of the alliance can offer some more funding but they arent really tooled up at the moment to offer a whole lot more as far as arms.

I have not really had an issue with the US cleaning its military closet and giving it to the Good Will (Ukraine) but whats the end game here is my question. Barring a over throw of the Putin regime it seems like its just a numbers game and at some point Ukraine will simply run out of men.
