The most potent (in their opinion) argument that Putinoids advance to convince Ukrainians to stop resisting the Russian invasion is, “You think you’ll get handouts from Europe? No, you won’t! They won’t give you any money!”
The sheer desperation with which the Russians advance this argument shows that they really believe that handouts are the only thing worth fighting for.

But I’m glad there is discussion of providing weaponry.
