I think I know this story! He's the guy that shot himself three (3) times in the head, right?
I generally agree but I could see several Middle Eastern countries such a Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, and others more than happy to help rebuild Ukrainian farming infrastructure.

Qatar is a net exporter(since 2017 and only imported around every other year prior to that even).
Saudi Arabia has banned Canadian imports,and limits US imports to crops below 5% bug damaged(strict by global standards),their largest grain imports in 2021-22 were from Russia(they are also in the process of joining BRICS,and have a defense pact with Russia now).
Kuwait on the other hand is almost 100% reliant on the US and imports grain from almost no where else.
Even with grain exports flowing from Ukraine at this point less than 3% have made it to Africa(with Egypt filing complaints about unfilled contracts). Almost all of Ukraine's grain the past 2 years has gone to the EU,China,Egypt,and Turkey(in 2021 Egypt was second after China this year they are not in the top 20). The very first ship after the embargo was lifted was supposed to go to Lebanon(#10 country for 2021 grain exports from Ukraine in 2022 not a single shipment likely because they would not condemn Russia) but re-routed "because of a failed grain sale" to Turkey,then on to Bulgaria(then by train to countries in the EU).
Russia abandons Ukrainian city of Kherson in major retreat
Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu on Wednesday ordered his troops to withdraw from the occupied Ukrainian city of Kherson and take up defensive lines on the opposite bank of the River Dnipro.

Not sure but before we are through we will spend enough to buy all the real estate involved at fair market value, Plus 10% for the big guy.
It has gotten to insane levels. Not just from the USA but NGO's and private citizens(not just US ones).
It is also getting much more difficult to track do to NGO funds and the private donations are not public.
Ukraine | U.S. Agency for International Development
Ukraine’s commitment and capacity to progress towards self-reliance is hampered by an ongoing two-front war – against Russia’s full scale aggression on the one hand, and against its internal legacy of corruption on the other – with deep consequences for the future of Europe, regional stability...
From just the US congress we are at a bit over 115 billion(or close to Ukrainian GDP in 2019).
Congress Preparing $50 Billion Lame-Duck Ukraine Aid Bill
As Congress approaches a lame-duck session, the legislative body is pursuing a roughly $50 billion Ukraine aid package.
www.breitbart.com
That number does not count use of the draw down authority...which some how includes the pentagon buying 45 Czech tanks(Netherlands also buying 45 so 90 total) to send to Ukraine.
It is interesting though in one way. The Netherlands purchased their part half of the 90 tanks for 125 million,but the USA spent 400 million to purchase the other 45(those tanks were not the only things that needed greased).
US, the Netherlands funding transfer of 90 Czech T-72 tanks to Ukraine
The US defense department and the Dutch defense ministry have reached a trilateral agreement with the Czech Republic for the transfer of 90 refurbished T-72B tanks to Ukraine. The Dutch defense ministry said Ukraine is expected to receive some of the tanks as early as next month. The country is p

As reported the Russians are pulling back from the West bank of the Dnipro River in the Kherson area.
But unlike previous retreats, this one is a orderly slow retreat, in "good order. Unlike the collapse and routes in Kharkiv and elsewhere.
It will still be a great victory for Ukraine, but there won't be masses of tasty Russian equipment left behind this time.
As to what is next, I do not expect Ukraine to push further south here. The river is an obstacle, and may be more so if the dam is popped.
I expect the Ukranians will push into Zaporizhia oblast next instead. Ether to drive to the sea and cut the Russian holdings in two, or to come down the east bank of the Dnipro and flank the retreated Kherson defenders. Maybe both?
This would put all the southern Russian held areas in jeopardy because of the weakening of the Kerch bridge

Remember all that hullabaloo over the dam?
Yes it was mined, but only because it was a crossing point. (Like one of the many Bridge and Dams we have on US interior rivers) They poped the explosives today, and no big flood. Only a severed crossing.

Top U.S. General Urges Diplomacy in Ukraine While Biden Advisers Resist
WASHINGTON — A disagreement has emerged at the highest levels of the United States government over whether to press Ukraine to seek a diplomatic end to its war with Russia, with America’s top general urging negotiations while other advisers to President Joe Biden argue that it is too soon. Gen...
communism:
noun
- A theoretical economic system characterized by the collective ownership of property and by the organization of labor for the common advantage of all members.
- A system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single, often authoritarian party holds power, claiming to make progress toward a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people.
Unless your definition of communism is different?
When I say that. I don't really mean the failed economic system. Putin and his Oligarchs dont want that, what they want is everything ELSE from the Communist era. Tight Central state control, with an oligarch version of capitalism.
Like ours?
