President Biden on Wednesday said that Russian President Vladimir Putin is using “winter as a weapon,” remarks he made at the top of a bilateral meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky who is visiting the White House.

“I’m delighted you were able to make the trip and be here. And, you know, it’s an honor to be by your side,” Biden said to Zelensky at their historic meeting. He added that Putin is “escalating his assaults on civilians” and trying to “use winter as a weapon.”

Russia’s war with Ukraine is now stretching into its tenth month.

Biden also announced ahead of Zelensky’s visit that the U.S. is providing an additional $2 billion in assistance aimed to help Ukraine defend against Russian aerial onslaughts that are targeting its energy and electricity infrastructure.

The $2 billion will include Patriot missile batteries, which can help target ballistic and cruise missiles, as well as unmanned aircraft.

Zelensky, at the White House, said he and Biden will discuss topics including “so many challenges in Ukraine, in Europe, in the world, from energy to the situation on the battlefield.”

Putin should just hire the Taliban to fight his war for him. They had no problem running Biden’s gang out of Afghanistan.

So did General George Washington. Chomo Joe really thinks he discovered some sneaky new military tactic using the seasons to your advantage?
