Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Sunday that “millions will be killed” in his country’s war with Russia without additional funding from the United States.
CNN’s Kaitlan Collins asked Zelensky in an interview to respond to comments made by Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), who claimed Ukraine’s outcome in its war will not be changed even if it receives the President Biden’s $60 billion aid request. Zelensky said he wasn’t sure if Vance “understands what is going on here.”
“To understand it is to come to the front line to see what’s going on, to speak with the people, then to go to civilians to understand … what will [happen to] them without this support. And he will understand that millions … will be killed. It’s a fact,” Zelensky said.
Please, tell me more about how acknowledging the fact that Americans can’t afford healthcare is a conservative dog whistle. LMAO.
There are options between full isolation, and the current state of America which is to jump at any chance we find to sell people missiles. Even better if those missiles are being aimed at brown people.
America needs to stay out of other people’s affairs. The UN exists for a reason. If the UN (along with the country itself) formally requests military aid somewhere, then we should go. Otherwise there shouldn’t be a single base or soldier not on American soil.
Well, Ukraine formally asked for aid at the beginning of Russia’s “special military operation”. Soooooo…
The US hasn’t sold a single thing to Ukraine, but has been donating their old stock.
How is helping Ukraine not a good thing? Doesn’t that increase security by having another friendly nation on your side?
Your arguments are rather weak. Seriously, how does allowing Russia have its way benefit anyone but Russia?
Old stock? We’ve spent $75 billion on Ukraine. Does hurting Russia actually help us $75 billion worth? Hardly. Sure, it’d be great if Ukraine won, but that money could rebuild the crumbling infrastructure, give us M4A, or a million other things that are actually impacting Americans.
Wow, it’s almost like the US could do all of that at the same time…
Allies aren’t cheap to earn, and if you want to not be the world police you need a lot of them.
Or do you think that the countries that are opposed to the US would just not do anything if you sat on your hands? Or their Allies come to their aid when they needed it?
