Prime Minister Scott Morrison said Friday that Australia will send armored Bushmaster vehicles to Ukraine after President Volodymyr Zelenskyy specifically asked for them while appealing to Australian lawmakers for more help in Ukraine's war against Russia.

Zelenskyy has been tailoring his message to individual countries through video appeals like the one shown to legislators in the Australian Parliament. Lawmakers gave him standing ovation at the start and end of his 16-minute address.

While the Ukrainian capital Kyiv is 15,000 kilometres from the Australian capital Canberra, Zelenskyy said Australia was not safe from the conflict which threatened to escalate into a nuclear war.“The most terrible thing is that if we don’t stop Russia now, if we don’t hold Russia accountable, then some other countries of the world who are looking forward to similar wars against their neighbours will decide that such things are possible for them as well,” Zelenskyy said.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison had earlier told the president that Australia would provide additional military assistance including tactical decoys, unmanned aerial and unmanned ground systems, rations and medical supplies. He later said the additional help would cost 25 million Australian dollars .

EV batteries use more CO2 to produce than 8 years of petrol driving & cannot be recycled; use rare metals that are mined in poor countries by slave/child labour. They are subsidised & rely on electricity from fossil fuels. EVs are expensive toys for the rich, paid for by the poor BULLOCKS ks. This is manipulation of facts and gaslighting. It'll take at least 5 or more years to break even compared to the equivalent ICE Vehicle. And in 10 yrs you'll need a new vehicle if you drive an EV until they have to buy a new battery
