Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned the US that any wavering in its support for Kyiv would bolster dictatorships around the world, as American funding for Ukraine’s defence against Russia is set to lapse by the end of the month.
“When the free world hesitates, that’s when dictatorships celebrate,” Zelenskyy told the National Defense University in Washington on Monday ahead of meetings planned for Tuesday with US President Joe Biden and congressional leaders.
Zelenskyy’s visit to the US comes at a pivotal moment in Ukraine’s fight against Russian forces, which launched a full-blown invasion of the country in February 2022. While Kyiv’s military performed better than expected early in the conflict, and proceeded to regain some lost territory with the help of western military aid, a counteroffensive to dislodge Moscow’s forces has stalled in recent months.

We’re in trillions of thousands in debt. Can’t control our own borders, NYC is overrun w/immigrants… etc .., the firehouse is on fire we need to put it out before we put out fires

Incredibly uninformed take on a complex geopolitical situation. Not helping now will cost exponentially more on all fronts—military, humanitarian aid, and economic stability.

It would also expose all of Europe to future aggression, especially former members of the Warshawpact or parts of the Russian empire plus us mentioned as suitable to be included in a Russian sfere of influence. The west must brace up!
@CampaignTerryGreen6mos6MO
So why doesnt Europe come together and stop that. Why do they need America to do this
@TruthfulBassLibertarian6mos6MO
When is Zelenskyy going to schedule elections in Ukraine?
@VoterEllaRepublican6mos6MO
What kind of elections during war, when 30% of territory is occupied? Will Putin have 146% in every elections?
@TruthfulBassLibertarian6mos6MO
But he is a dictator - he doesnt want to hold elections as he knows he will loose with a wide margin
@CivilRightsCurlewDemocrat6mos6MO
Americans and everyone in the European Union, wake up and realize that Putin does not need peace. You can't believe Russian propaganda. The Kremlin wants expansion of territory, the terrorist Putin wants the renewal of the Russian empire with the territory of Poland, Germany
