PROS:

  • We will be able to stop bloodshed quickly

  • We can stop Russian president Putin from bringing back the soviet union
  • We can stop Putin from taking over other countries such as Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia

CONS

  • WWIII could begin
  • Spending money on other countries when we have debt
  • If the weapons are destroyed the second they get there, that's $350,000,000 for nothing
  • The little to no ties that we have with Russia will break
  • The Ukraine might turn the weapons agianst us
