Schumer Says Zelensky Told Him Ukraine Will Lose to Russia Without US Aid
Sputnik News ^ | 2/23/24

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - US Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said on Friday that Volodymyr Zelensky told him Ukraine would lose the conflict with Russia without US military assistance.

"President Zelensky told me and our delegation that Ukraine will lose the war with dire consequences for the Ukrainian people, the US, and democracy & freedom without this vital aid," Schumer wrote on X.

House Speaker Mike Johnson and the House must pass the Senate's national security bill as soon as possible, Schumer added.

Schumer is on a visit to Ukraine marking the second anniversary of Russia's special operation. The congressional delegation, which also includes senators Jack Reed, Michael Bennet, Richard Blumenthal, and Maggie Hassan, met with Zelensky.

The visit comes after the US Senate passed a $95 billion supplemental funding bill with $60 billion in additional Ukraine aid and $14.1 billion in security assistance for Israel, but no border security measures. House Speaker Mike Johnson said that the lower chamber has no plans to consider the current legislation after the Senate failed to propose "adequate" border security provisions.

I don’t care which basketball team in Romania wins
I don’t care which soccer team in China wins
I don’t care which baseball team in Korea wins
And I really don’t care who wins the war between Russia and Ukraine.

It really depends on the definition of winning doesn’t it? American and Ukrainian oligarchs define winning based how much of the U.S. Treasury they can transfer to their own pockets.

Ukraine is historically part of Russia, a large portion of its population is Russian.....

Wrong. What is now "Russia" is historically part of Ukraine, but hived off on its' own violent trajectory after the Mongol invasion of the 13th century. Ukraine has its' own language, and where Russian is spoken now it's due to Muskovite invasions. The Soviets, for example, ethnically cleansed Crimea during WW2, deporting hundreds of thousands of native Tatars and replacing them with Muskovites. Putin didn't mention that, of course.

“Ukraine Will Lose to Russia Without US Aid”

“Is there anyone who didn’t realise that, two years ago?”


It’s hard to believe than any intellectually honest person ever thought otherwise.

The people of Crimea are doing amazingly well for losing to Russia. Ask them if they want to “win” and rejoin Nulandistan.

Ukraine needs German industrial support, but Germany continues to entreat Moscow in hope of quickly restoring trade with Russia.

IMHO

Does anyone, ANYONE??? really think Ukraine is going to win the war???? The only thing they’re “winning” is a HUGE bank account.

I wonder how much money Chuck Schumer gets as a kick back

I don't know but it looks like he had to take along 4 friends to carry the 'luggage' back.

Always was.

What do Iraq, Venezuela, Syria, Libya, all have in common? They are major oil producers and Russian aligned.

So we have to spread freedom and democracy, protect the world from WDM, and protect human rights by attacking, invading or sponsoring coups in these places.
