I agree including their arms. Remember these Ukrainian soldiers are on
their own soil and they can carry their arms in defense of their own
territory and fulfill their duties, their oaths to the Constitution and the
people and nation they serve. The Ukrainian troops have not invaded Russia
or any other foreign land. Time to meet force with force otherwise put the
chains on your own ankles and wrists. Time to be assertive and not
rationalize as to why they should not be armed.
