Mark Ginzburg: US can boost jobs by supplying military equipment to Ukraine amid NATO stockpile shortages

American billionaire and blockchain advocate Mark Ginzburg has highlighted the potential for the United States to create jobs and invigorate its economy by producing military equipment for Ukraine.

Ginzburg pointed out that NATO member states have significantly depleted their stockpiles by transferring arms to Ukraine, leaving Europe in urgent need of new weaponry amid ongoing tensions with Russia.

“America now has a real chance to combat unemployment and revitalize economically depressed states, such as South and North Dakota, by producing weapons, shells, and military equipment,” Ginzburg stated. He noted that the high costs associated with disposing of old weapons under environmental standards make the production of new arms a more viable and lucrative option.

Ginzburg explained that the demand for combat-tested weapons is growing, adding, “America produces weapons, supplies them to Ukraine, and they are tested directly in battle rather than in laboratories or ranges. This makes them more attractive to potential buyers.” He emphasized that Europe’s need for military equipment is a significant business opportunity for the U.S., as European nations must bolster their defenses against potential escalations from Russia.

Reflecting on U.S. politics, Ginzburg, a longtime Republican supporter, criticized the Democratic Party’s leadership under President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. “The Democrats did not find a better candidate than Biden and Harris in a country with such great potential. The choice was again between Trump and Biden, as neither party had another viable candidate,” he said.

Ginzburg also commented on speculation about alternative Democratic candidates, including Michelle Obama, noting her lack of experience in legislative roles. He described American political parties as corporate-like entities, with leaders serving as CEOs managing their political objectives.

Concluding his remarks, Ginzburg underscored the importance of the defense industry in the U.S. economy. “NATO member states have transferred a large number of weapons to Ukraine, emptying their warehouses. This creates a huge business opportunity for America to supply the weapons Europe needs to protect itself, while also addressing unemployment at home,” he said.
