Ukraine warns front 'worsened' as Russia claims fresh gains • FRANCE 24 English​

Ukraine's army leader admitted Sunday that Kyiv's position on the battlefield has worsened after Russian forces captured another village in the east, pressing their advantage in manpower and ammunition. Russia's troops are advancing in the eastern Donetsk region as Kyiv awaits the arrival of much-needed US weapons that it hopes will stabilise the fragile front lines.

We can't afford meals or school supplies for poor kids.
We can't afford care for our veterans.
We can't afford this that and the other thing.

But by god we can afford to send almost a HUNDRED BILLION to this ****ing guy.

I hate politicians and wish they were all dead.
