KIEV, Ukraine (AP) -- U.S. officials say the White House is announcing an aid package to Ukraine of $1 billion in lost energy subsidies as it seeks to extract itself from Russia's influence.


What do y'all think?

There may not be a Ukraine worth giving aid to by the end if the day.

Do the Chinese approve?
It's more or less their money.

I think that when you are in ridiculous debt, you should not be giving money that you don't have to others.

I have 2 opinions on it. One one hand I think it is a good move because Russia gave the old Ukrainian government $15 billion (that I assume they have cut the funds off to) loan. The new Ukrainian governments biggest problem is securing itself financially. On the other hand, why are we borrowing a billion dollars to give it to Ukraine, couldn't they just go to China themselves?

Let every Ukraine citizen have a rifle.

Europe's baby. We've packed their water for long enough...all the while being disrespected with their high-minded Socialist harangues. Now they'll have to take their subsidy money and use it to keep the Russians off their arse. Chickens coming to the roost.

This isn't even close to enough.

Our aide package should be 10-15 billion.
