New Greens leader: No weapons for Ukraine, curtail the US alliance
www.smh.com.au
David Shoebridge believes the Greens can win votes by campaigning to scrap the AUKUS nuclear-powered submarine pact and legalise recreational cannabis.

curtail the us 100% agree, stop exports to ukraine 100% disagree so they will be last on the list of parties i vote for

insane to think if Australia was invaded i’d want a bunch of other pacifists countries telling me how bad they feel and good luck

    Shoebridge said the Greens backed the provision of “basic humanitarian and civil assistance” to Ukraine, and support for anti-corruption efforts, but the party opposed global weapons transfers as a matter of principle.

    The party would support providing military aid to Ukraine if it were backed by a United Nations Security Council resolution, he said, but Russia would use its veto power on the council to block any such move.

    What? That’s basically saying we will happily send military aid if Russia gives it the ok. Someone has fucked up this stance or the messaging around it.
