Biden, Warner Warn Delayed Ukraine Aid Risks Handing Advantage to Putin
-
Senate Intelligence Chair Mark Warner said Putin believes Ukraine will fall within months without more US military aid, citing US intelligence.
-
Warner made the statement after the Senate failed to advance a new $110 billion aid package for Ukraine, Israel, and Gaza.
-
Republicans blocked the package because it lacked tougher immigration measures for the US-Mexico border.
-
President Biden echoed Warner, saying Republicans risk "abandoning global leadership" by blocking aid to Ukraine.
-
Delaying additional aid to Ukraine could directly play into Putin's hands as the war has reached a violent stalemate along the eastern front lines.
