Hopefully north korean shenanigans can convince South Korea to give significant military aid, and Japan’s new more centrist parliament will have more will to help Ukraine than it’s previous more right wing one. After all, Japan is still the fourth largest economy on earth.

Anyways what I’m saying, is if Trump is elected, it’s no reason to give up on Ukraine. It means we all need to try harder.

If I was SK, I would be concerned about what Putin gave NK for the troops.

SK is already working on it, but there's a law about not providing weapons to countries at war they need to bypass

Switzerland has a similar law. But since a far-right pro-“peace” (that means pro-putin) party is our largest party, we’ve hit an unfortunate roadblock. It really sucks because we have so much equipment rotting away we clearly could give to help ukraine.
