- President Zelenskyy warned that Ukraine would lose the war if the US didn’t send it more aid.
- House Republicans have been stalling on a $60 billion aid package for Ukraine.
- “It is necessary to specifically tell Congress that if Congress does not help Ukraine, Ukraine will lose,” he said.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Sunday that his country “will lose the war” against Russia if Congress does not act to send it more aid, Agence France-Presse reported.
“It is necessary to specifically tell Congress that if Congress does not help Ukraine, Ukraine will lose the war,” he said, per AFP.
For months, House Republicans have stalled on a bill containing $60 billion in aid for Ukraine, stipulating that it should also include increased funding for security at the US southern border.
It’s Zelenskyy’s job to say that. But if he doesn’t get it he’ll be in a tough situation with his troops assuming he tries to backpedal that and encourage them to keep fighting.
I don’t understand why Europe isn’t more involved in shutting this situation down. It’s your goddamn borders at risk if this smoldering fire isn’t put out.
Europe CANT do more. They don’t have the military strength due to perpetual underfunding. It’s precisely what every US President since Bill Clinton has been bitching about. The wolf is at the door and they’re every bit as unprepared as has been claimed for the last 30 years.
We’ve relied too heavily on NATO and the US and it’s biting is in the ass right now. A European army would be great in this exact kind of situation. But then everyone in Europe will be “but muh sovereignty”, like Europe didn’t do in 50 years what people tried to do for centuries, which is preventing us from killing each other.
Europe has a huge army they are just not using it befause Russia has nukes.
