Josh Sigurdson talks with John Doull about the recent announcement by General Jim Mattis and the Trump administration regarding the continued support of the Ukrainian military, mainly in Crimea as more weapons are sent to be used against Russia.
After attending a Ukrainian military parade, General Mattis met with Poroshenko and then took part in a press conference where he claimed the US has sent 175 million dollars worth of weapons and equipment to Ukraine to fight against Russian aggression in Crimea just in the last week, adding up to a total of $750 million in the past several years.
Mattis is considering sending more arms and one has to come to grips with the fact that this is an act of war against Russia.
Under the Obama administration, countless weapons were sent not just to the Ukrainian military but spread among "rebels" also known as literal nazis under the Svoboda Party.
While the left in the United States calls everyone they disagree with a nazi, these guys are actually nazis and the left is overwhelmingly in support of this aggression against their new enemy, Russia.
If you were Russia and you saw this, what would you do? What would Americans do if Russia armed Canada against the US? Think about it.
While the media claims Trump is Putin's puppet, his administration (which the generals clearly control as the growth of the military industrial complex becomes greater) continues dangerous acts of aggression against Russia.
Just in January, John McCain and Lindsay Graham travelled to the Ukraine, met with the nazis and Poroshenko as well. They both publicly pledged that they will do anything they can including sending arms to help Ukraine in their fight. They said, "2017 will be the year of offense against Russia."
Last December, Obama expelled 35 Russian diplomats from the US. Under Trump, countless new sanctions have been put on Russia, the most recent just a week ago. China has threatened the US for these sanctions and because of them, Russia has just expelled 755 US diplomats from Russia.
How could we so irresponsibly and willingly walk into this dragon's den? This incredibly unstable environment? Our lives are at risk.
We will continue to cover this story as it no doubt unfolds.
