CNN —

The Biden administration is moving toward lifting a de facto ban on American military contractors deploying to Ukraine, four US officials familiar with the matter told CNN, to help the country’s military maintain and repair US-provided weapons systems.

The change would mark another significant shift in the Biden administration’s Ukraine policy, as the US looks for ways to give Ukraine’s military an upper hand against Russia.

The policy is still being worked on by administration officials and has not received final sign-off yet from President Joe Biden, officials said.

    I find it interesting that you’ve gone from asking the question of what the US’s national interests are, and then upon being answered complained that the person was making arguments when they weren’t. You’re clearly being disingenuous.

        But you’re not. You’re disagreeing with the person while asking leading questions, then arguing against the answers to the questions you asked.

        It’s almost like you’re intentionally wasting their effort and mental energy to deal with your gish-galloping.

          I really don’t know what you mean. I asked what US national security interests were being served by the US involvement in the Russia/Ukraine conflict, they answered, and I said I didn’t find their answers compelling. It’s really that simple.

      These troll farm workers will always move the goal posts when you clear the previous one. It’s best to not engage with them, just block and move on

        It’s useful to point out the absurdity of their bullshit in case other readers don’t detect it.
