We can save lives with our aid, as we did through Turkey's earthquake a few years back. We provided money and humanitarian aid, as we focused on rebuilding and saving peoples lives. The people should matter first, before anything. here we have no right to personally get involved it he war, but we can still support on the side lines.

 @B8R4M3S from New York  disagreed…7mos7MO

There are millions of American Citizens that are in need of aid and help that are neglected by our government because the money is being used to help citizens of another country.

 @B8R5JLG from Florida  disagreed…7mos7MO

We are not even allies with Ukraine and in the current state and debt America is in, sending money to Ukraine if the last of our concern

 @B8SBMTY from Connecticut  disagreed…7mos7MO

We have far more problems here at home, and we shouldn't be involved in so many foreign wars. Its costly, and by now we can clearly see that the war is not winnable. Yes, humanitarian aid would be great to get into Ukraine, however a lot of the money sent is swept up by corruption.

 @B8RH4VCPeace and Freedom from California  disagreed…7mos7MO

Domestic priorities, potential for corruption, questions of winnability, and concerns about escalation.

 @B8G4B6C  from New York  agreed…7mos7MO

The United States has an interest in geopolitically defending Ukraine, and giving humanitarian aid, but funding any war with weapons is unethical and unnecessary.

 @B8JQRGD from North Carolina  disagreed…7mos7MO

Honestly, we should mind our own buisness and focus on what is going on in our country first before helping another country AT WAR.

 @B8JBP4N from Texas  disagreed…7mos7MO

Washington warned us about getting involved in foreign affairs and alliances, and look how thats turned out for us, not great.

 @B8Q8L4V from Kentucky  agreed…7mos7MO

I don't think we should totally abounded Ukrainian but I don't think we should wast resorses on a fight that is never ending

 @B8H6GQJRepublican from Texas  agreed…7mos7MO

There is no sense getting involved in a war we dont have any real stakes in (yet) but we can always help the people in war time

 @BCV5L3XIndependent from Arizona  agreed…2mos2MO

Supporting Ukraine is a vital affirmation of the universal right to self-determination, yet this commitment must be governed by fiscal precision. By calibrating aid to strictly necessary levels, we fulfill our moral obligation to protect human life without compromising our own economic stability. This pragmatic approach ensures that our humanitarian response is both impactful and sustainable, maintaining the domestic strength required to remain a reliable guardian of global human rights.

 @B8DWH65 from Mississippi  agreed…7mos7MO

The United States should help in the basic way of providing some for the innocent people in Ukraine. The government isn't perfect there and we shouldn't get too involved but we should still be morally good in trying to save the people.

 @B2L9P6VSocialist  from Utah  agreed…2mos2MO

Russian imperialism must be countered through targeted sanctions against their oligarchs and ruling class, not the working public. However, U.S. defense funding primarily enriches the military-industrial complex. We must prioritize direct humanitarian aid, debt cancellation, and aggressive diplomacy over funneling working-class tax dollars to weapons manufacturers.

 @B8G6XZWRepublican  from Illinois  agreed…7mos7MO

The United States should help defend Ukraine, but we donate too much. While I think that we should help countries with similar interests with defense, we should not send money to any other country besides those who need it for defense. The amount we have given Ukraine in relation to the rest of NATO is ridiculous. That being said, I don’t think that the US has more of an interest in European safety than the countries that are close by. It doesn’t make sense for us to be giving so much to the country while other countries sit back.

 @9LRT5YH from California  disagreed…2yrs2Y

We are in so much debt. We cannot afford to keep sending aid to Ukraine. That funding should be spent back home in the US instead.

 @9GT59LRLibertarian from Indiana  disagreed…3yrs3Y

The Ukraine is wildly corrupt and any aid sent to them will likely be squandered by corrupt officials.

 @BCKFJ2X from Virginia  agreed…3mos3MO

if we provide war weapons to Ukraine, we become a target to Russia. we should not be Russia's allies, but rather a neutral country in the perspective of their leader

 @B2BLS5C from California  agreed…1yr1Y

Now, we only want to provide humanitarian aid, because if soldiers come, then Russia may see this as an act of war.

 @9HRL78N from Illinois  disagreed…2yrs2Y

We are $34 Trillion in debt, we cannot afford to provide welfare to our own- let alone welfare to the planet

 @9GZJJXF from Texas  disagreed…3yrs3Y

Ukraine is a corrupt, genocidal state. The US providing this aid would only fuel corruption, as the aid would be sold off by officials and would not reach citizens.

 @9FRLZ35Libertarian from Idaho  disagreed…3yrs3Y

The Ukraine v. Russia conflict does not provide anything for us, put us at risk or require our intervention. Ukraine holds no geopolitical interest to us and this conflict is between Russia and Ukraine. It has been blown out of proportion by the media and further supporting it is an act of fueling the military industrial complex.

 @BF2RCLF from Illinois  agreed…4 days4D

Most spending has gone toward military objectives rather than direct civilian relief.
Civilian needs (food, shelter, medical care, refugee assistance, infrastructure repair) could be prioritized instead.
Other allies could continue non-military support without increasing weapons transfers.
