A new poll released on Thursday has revealed that the majority of Republican Americans do not support providing weapons and financial support to Ukraine, compared to their Democrat or independent counterparts.

The Axios/Ipsos Two Americas poll found that overall, 59 percent of Americans, or three in five, support providing weapons and financial support to the Eastern European nation. Most Democrats and independents agreed as well, at 79 and 60. percent, respectively.

42 percent of Republicans said that the US could provide such support to Ukraine.

The poll also focused on the 20th anniversary of the United States invading Iraq, which found that Republicans were more likely to say that the US was right to invade Iraq than their Democrat or independent counterparts.

58 percent of Republicans said that the US was right, compared to 26 percent of Democrats and 32 percent of independents.

31 percent of Americans overall said that the Iraq war has made the US less safe, while the majority of Americans, 54 percent, said that the US’s focus on national defense and homeland security in the last 20 years has made the country safer.

73 percent of Americans said the US should continue to "try to be the global leader."

The Axios/Ipsos Two Americas poll was conducted between March 10 and 13 of 1,018 American adults. The poll has a margin of error of 3.3 percent.

Do we actually know what fractio to Ukrainen of the money actually went to Ukraine after Biden’s skimoff? We may be giving more to Russia.

“Time for peace agreement, right now. Halt this madness.”

The problem is that Russia does not live up to it’s treaties.

Yeah but they facilitated and aided the soviet state since 1919. And suddenly they are Russia’s enemies? I just don’t believe there is any sincerity in their opposition to Russia.

Sort of. A bit. They were anti-war throughout the Iraq war.

Not opposed to funding, just want to pay our fair share. The Euro nations who are on the continent with Russia and Ukraine ought to be paying equal amounts.

"Headline contradicts the second sentence."
The second sentence probably doesn't. The third sentence explains it:
"Most Democrats and independents agreed as well, at 79 and 60 percent, respectively."

Obviously if you were an Indian living in 19th century that would be fair. But in the recent past and present if you trust Russia you are idiot. Then again you are possibly just another Putin lover on the board.

Fanatical Putin Stooge BlackbirdSST has no hesitation crapping on America for his beloved Terror State Russia.

But even after over a year of Russia's failing Terror Attack he doesn't criticize Putin.

You're just another in the long line of DH's on the internet. That isn't some level of speculation, it's bore out in your words.
