A former #Pentagon official has emphasized that a #Russian victory in #Ukraine would have severe financial and strategic consequences for the #United_States.

Key points from the analysis:
#Ukraine’s defeat could cost the #US $808 billion in defence spending over the next five years.

• The #George_W_Bush Presidential Centre advises doubling support to ensure
#Ukraine’s victory by expediting military aid.

• If #Russia seizes #Ukraine’s resources, it could use them to bolster its economy and military, posing a greater threat to #Eastern_Europe and potentially #NATO countries by 2030.

Investing in #Ukraine’s success now is seen as a cost-effective strategy to prevent larger conflicts and ensure global stability.
