President Joe Biden touted on Thursday several new major U.S. commitments for Ukraine that were announced this week, including a 10-year bilateral security agreement, sanctions to disrupt Russia's war machine, and a sign-off from the G7 on a $50 billion loan backed by frozen Russian assets.

Biden, in during a press conference in Italy with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, said the collective efforts by the G7 show that Russian President Vladimir Putin "cannot wait us out, he cannot divide us, and we'll be with Ukraine until they prevail this war." 

On the bilateral agreement, Biden said the goal is to "strengthen Ukraine's credible defense and deterrence capabilities for the long term."

He reiterated his position that American troops will not fight in Ukraine, but the United States would provide them with weapons.

Zelenskyy called it a "historic day" after signing the "strongest agreement between Ukraine and the U.S. since our independence."

You may have been convinced that Iran and their proxies are the good guys but Ukrainians not agreeing with you is not a sign of them being a puppet when they're hearing Shahed drones buzzing overhead.

This is about the cognitive dissonance of Zelensky being invaded by an imperialist foreign power that is committing genocide against the Ukrainians while at the same time standing with Israel who is committing genocide against the Palestinians. And this person here starts talking about Iran and drones. Are you okay?
