The large-scale Russian attack on Ukraine this morning shows that President Putin is still fighting war with conviction, says US President Biden. “He must be stopped.” That is why Biden believes that American politics must take immediate action and send more support to the country.
“It is a grim reminder to the world that after nearly two years of devastating war, Putin’s goals remain unchanged. He wants to destroy Ukraine and subjugate its people. If dictators and autocrats are allowed to rampage in Europe, the danger increases the United States will be immediately swept away.”
Billions
Biden wants to send tens of billions in economic and military aid to Ukraine. Republicans in Congress are blocking that aid package. In exchange for the support, they want more money for border control in their own country.
Russia bombarded Ukraine with a large arsenal of weapons in the early morning. According to the Ukrainian air force, it is the largest air strike since the outbreak of the war. At least thirty people were killed and dozens were injured in the attack.
