In reply to the discussion: How Amazon put Ukraine's 'government in a box' -- and saved its economy from Russia [View all]DENVERPOPS
(13,003 posts)6. The U.S. should be doing something else.........
Another "Berlin airlift" to Ukraine.....Totally humanitarian and no reason for Russia to attack the transport planes because it is purely humanitarian. Let Putin know, we are doing this, and that if he tries to take out the supply planes with fighters or rockets the consequences will be EXTREME AND IMMEDIATE for them attacking the supplies we are sending for medical purposes or feeding the innocent civilians....
Point out to Putin we are not going to take any offensive actions, purely defensive if he screws with our humanitarian airlift.
Maybe NATO nations will help with the project.
Google Berlin Airlift to see the enormous effort that was taken to help innocent citizens in the past......

I'm not sure that it's Ruzzia that doesn't get it - it's Poutine and his fellow oligarchs

When Amazon is good, it's really good. When it's bad.. well, we'll save that for another day.
