Rep. Spartz: Arm Ukraine With Longer-Range Munitions

Rep. Victoria Spartz, R-Ind., on Wednesday called for the White House to provide longer-range munitions to Ukraine, a press release revealed.

Spartz, who was born in the northern Ukrainian city of Nosivka, also urged the Biden administration to be more "proactive" in providing security assistance to the Ukrainian Armed Forces roughly one year into the conflict.

"The next six months will be critical to the brutal war in Ukraine and longer-range capabilities will be crucial for its success," she stated, asking for Guided Multiple Rocket Launch System or Army Tactical Missile System munitions to be sent over.

"What these capabilities would do is to help the Ukrainian military to better defend its cities in Eastern Ukraine where the Russian army has pulled back its artillery to a 'safe' distance on the occupied Ukrainian territories," Spartz added.

Her comments arrive hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy pressured Western allies to send tank supplies faster

she will do far worse, she will stay gop and vote with dnc when needed.

this was why it was so important to get the house margin so narrow with all the extra time counting votes.

Guess foreigners gotta stick together.

********

It makes sense from their perspective.

What makes me shake my head and laugh, are people that think our potential foreign adversaries don’t know our supposed national secrets.

We’ve been a global bazaar for along time.

When foreigners and foreign nationals are all over your layers of government, corporations, and universities.

You’re an “open book” that shouldn’t be surprised when rivals copy and imitate your successes.

I wonder what the percentage of American citizens with dual citizenship compared to the percentage of Congress / politicians in Washington DC having dual citizenship.

The strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must.

The strong have decided that Russia will get its ass kicked and that’s what will happen.

Putin will go to his TV and declare “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED” and you’ll be reassigned and given a new guidebook.

I understand your frustration. I think Poland is unlikely to get occupied. It is going to be turned into rubble for you to pick through for a couple decades to restore a semblance of civilization. Then it is going to be repeated:)

Well, it was Kiev’s choice. If not, they wouldn’t have suffered 760k casialties.
What is going to be Warsaw’s choice?

Russia OWNS the air space. Ukraine has proven there is no target it can't hit if it wants to. The Ukrainian air defense is a joke.

And, why haven't the Russians dismantled the entire electric grid? Because it doesn't want to turn countries backing them in this war against them. Causing mass deaths of civilians might do that.

You're a fool if you think Ukraine has any chance of taking back lost territory or winning this war. There is absolutely no chance of that happening. If we entered the war, it would be another Vietnam and Ukraine would still lose.

Uh, then why cant Russia overfly Ukrainian airspace?
Why cant Russia interdict Ukrainian logistics?

Why is this war still going on? If Russia had such access to Ukrainian airspace there would be no supplies reaching the Ukrainian armies.

And, on your other points, why is it that Ukraine HAS taken back territory?

Your worldview seems severely out of whack.

Huh? They consistently do so. Have you missed the bi-weekly bombings of Ukraine's infrastructure? You can't do that unless you own the airspace.

The Russians can and DO hit any target they want to. Ukraine's air defense isn't sufficient to stop the missiles or drones coming in.

Because the goal of the Russian military is to destroy the Ukrainian military. And, that is happening in the meat grinder in Donbass.

The slow grind minimizes Russian causalities and maximizes Ukrainian losses. And, Russians have been aided in all this by NATO and Zelenksy both of which have insisted on using Ukrainian troops as cannon fodder.

Plus, the slow grind allows the Russians to keep churning out missiles, ammo and weapons all while Ukraine and NATO are running out of all that.
