That's great.

We have to arm the Ukrainians. It feels a wee bit cowardly of all of us not to join the fight, but it is the price we pay hopefully to keep the war roughly conventional in nature and avoid escalation to nuclear war. It will do no one any good to lob atomic bombs at each other. But if Putin does it, then I assume we'll join in. In the meanwhile, Ukraine fights with NATO weapons, logistics and information support. A proxy war between east and west. And Putin's economy is too puny to support his side of it.

How the US is helping Ukraine fight Russia
BY JORDAN WILLIAMS - 03/04/22

The U.S. has contributed more than $1 billion to help Ukraine’s military over the past year and has pledged more aid as Russia’s weeklong war against the country continues.

Washington has reportedly sent hundreds of Stinger missiles as part of the latest package of defensive aid, while the White House on Wednesday asked Congress to authorize an additional $10 billion in security, humanitarian and economic assistance for Ukraine.
