    The guys over there do seem to have a strong attitude towards the situation.

    I understand the sentiment, but it’s no coincidence that those who are loudest to demand are also those with the least to give. When you’re the one doing the donating, it’s much more difficult and complicated.

      The Baltic states and Poland have donated more than their fair share

          It’s a contrasting argument. I didn’t say they’re wrong. That’s a counterpoint.

        The Baltics can send troops to Ukraine if they’re actually afraid that they’re next.

            And? NATO is a defensive alliance. There’s nothing stopping them from going in.

            The Baltics are just perfectly content to let Ukrainians die if it kills some Russians as well. Not sure why Ukrainians have to die if there is an actual fear of Russia advancing further than Ukraine. They’re not a meat shield for Europe. The Baltics should actually nut up if they believe even half the shit they’re saying about Russian expansionism.

          Can you just google before giving this kind of opinion, NATO members cant go to war if other members do not agree. Sending people to fight would be the same as going to war.

            That’s not how NATO works. So maybe you should try googling a little harder. Otherwise Germany and France would have been in Iraq. NATO is a defensive alliance. You can send troops to Ukraine. Literally nothing is stopping you if you believe it’s a matter of national security in the future.

                  So if you are so well educated, why do you think we are not sending troops? Please enlighten me with your knowledge.

      Yeah it’s strange to see advertising like this on public buses for arming a country and essentially putting politics of warfare on buses so openly.
