    European countries are taking somewhat decent care of Ukrainian refugees, which can’t be said for refugees that aren’t white skinned.

    And did you just collate military equipment with a humanitarian effort or am misreading that?

    I’m in full support of any real humanitarian aid possible: Support their wounded and sick, support their people with basic needs (generators/energy, food, water, clothing, temporary housing, psych support etc).

    Sometimes I’m really surprised at some of these questions you people come up with.

    Edit: Typo.

      Europe has taken in millions of non-white refugees and taken great care of them. How many have Russia and china taken in? India? Brazil?

        Look it up. I’m not your personal researcher, sorry. I’m happy to provide sources to backup claims I’ve brought up myself.

        I never compared Europe to other nations in terms of harboring refugees and I didn’t even imply that Europe hasn’t been taking in refugees. I wish you’d spend a bit more time reading and understanding what people are writing instead of just coming up with cheap rhetorical or whataboutism questions.

          My point is people to want to go there. They want to go to Europe because they’ll have good opportunities and be treated relatively well.
