There is no debate about Ukraine

In an article in “ Politico” it is stated the USA Republicans want to debate what is considered a current “stalemate” with Russia. A reduction in support for Ukraine is surrender to Russia and that is exactly what Putin is hoping for in a continued disruption of the lives of Ukrainians. 

Any pullback and/or surrender by Ukraine is their decision alone. The USA has no say in a genocide being conducted by Russia. Russia’s chronic disruption of Ukrainian lands is genocide. It is not simply genocide of Ukraine but also other countries facing food shortages because of Russian aggression. There is no guarantee that genocide will end if Ukraine surrenders. It will most likely get worse to ensure deaths.

USA Republicans are playing budget roulette with genocide as they are unable to understand the resolve of post Soviet states and their commitment to freedom and democracy. USA Republicans are spineless, short sighted whimps.

President Zelenskyy should make visits, even via the internet, to Republican donors as they appear to be a great danger to democracy and freedom as much as Putin. No classified information release as it is uncertain what these donors would do with it. Their only loyalty is to every penny they can hoard for their own purposes. But, perhaps they would like a real stake in Ukraine’s victory that would bring them wealth in investment in the long term.
