RE: Junk in Trunk

A country needs to be dependent on itself, continually hoping that the US will come to their rescue by selling military weapons to them only makes them totally dependent on the US.
It's high time the world learns that most times aids rendered to any country is an exchange for either something monetary, natural resources or a form acceptance of control from that country, and most times this ends up depressing the economy of such country.

Maybe if we begin to recognise that we as a smaller countries can have some form of self reliance, we will invest more in our economies rather than always shopping from outside.

Sort:  

that the US will come to their rescue by selling military weapons to them only makes them totally dependent on the US.

Where are the troops in Ukraine from the US? They are happy to sell weapons, but is that really enough? Same for Europe. Ending the war isn't going to depend solely on what weapons Ukraine has, if they do not have enough people to use them, let alone rebuild the country after. But that is what the US is waiting for, right?
