Roosevelt in 1940 says Allies focus must be peace and not retaking territory...

Oh no, wait, he didn't...

By "peace" what they actually mean is "submission."

Russia's already getting a return on their investment.

"And if that is your priority of getting Crimea back and having American soldiers fight to get Crimea back, you're on your own."

You don't need that propaganda line anymore, you already won. Or did you actually start to believe it?

Europe needs to give a minimum of 0,5% of GDP until Ukraine has won. If USA stops the support, Europe must stop all aid that include American weapons and only donate European weapons - Europe first.

Why so low? in the 70's we (Denmark) had a 4% budget for foreign aid! Later reduced to 2%, but we can do more if we want.
If we were actually directly at war with Russia, we would likely spend 25% maybe more on it.
Surely Europe can give more than 0.5% to stop Russia terrorizing Europe.
Clearly Europe and allies need to step up the game, now that we can't expect more help from USA efter January.
We also need to do more against Hungary and Slovakia for being traitors to EU. That should not be allowed to go unpunished.

Ukraine is entitled both legally and morally to have their land back including Crimea.
Trumps advisor is talking like a Russian puppet.
