" As a U.S. senator, Barack Obama won $48 million in federal funding to help Ukraine destroy thousands of tons of guns and ammunition – weapons which are now unavailable to the Ukrainian army as it faces down Russian President Vladimir Putin during his invasion of Crimea.

In August 2005, just seven months after his swearing-in, Obama traveled to Donetsk in Eastern Ukraine with then-Indiana Republican Senator Dick Lugar, touring a conventional weapons site."


Getting rid of the nuclear stockpiles is understandable, but leaving an ally virtually defenseless against an historically aggressive neighbor. . . .well.

Its sounds like liberal gun control writ large. . . with similar disastrous results
