• 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.

    Understood. I’m never going to do that, unless I’m overtly using sarcasm, so apologies for appearing to be provocative for the sake of it.

    I probably misread your previous comment, now that I’m seeing you elaborate. I apologize for the vitriol, ending Russian genocide and terrorism of the free world is emotional for me.

    We pretty much agree. That tone is just very apologist IMHO. Like abuse victim language - “look, you’re right, wife, it sucks I’m attacking you but if everyone else didn’t put me in this situation, I wouldn’t be slapping you around” - it’s an extreme example for simplicity but I hope it’s not such a stretch that my point is lost.
