You can scoff, but this was wording was suggested by Donald Trump some months ago. Donald said we aren't going to give them the money. We will loan it. Sort of like lend lease in WWII.
From Voice of America:
Trump suggested Republicans push for making additional U.S. military aid to Ukraine "in the form of a loan rather than a gift."
Johnson, a Republican congressman from the state of Louisiana who has been House speaker since October, made no statement about the aid. But Trump's stance is likely to hold sway over many House Republicans.

And it was just as retarded when Trump said it. We all know they aren't going to payback shite.

Your opinion holds no sway with MAGA. I'm all in for Trump's line of reasoning.

That's called theft. Steal from the rusisans, then the Zelenski steals it from the USA

Except Trump would leave Ukraine hanging if they don't pay it back while Biden has already forgiven the loan

G7 is trying now to figure out how to spend Russia's "sanctioned" money.

I don't know about fiat. Seems like a frivolous process but I guess is an apt description. Anyway, indeed the G7 countries are working through this process right now. Trump says something and the Biden administration and Europe act accordingly.

You got me there. I was a scientist, not a business major. I'm comfortably retired now.

Stealing money from one belligerent to give to another.
Sounds like an act of war to me.

They collected $50 bil from Russian assets? Isn’t that theft?
Posted on 6/13/24 at 6:25 pm to gmac8604
So are taxes, but that hasn't stopped anyone from doling money out.
At least this money isn't coming directly or indirectly from the US taxpayer via taxes or inflation.

So, just so we're clear... collecting from Russia = theft.
Collecting from US taxpayer = what?
