The more pressure put on Putin, the sooner the war ends. If President Biden and Vice President Harris don’t adjust their military strategy in Ukraine, it will be a dire outcome for Ukraine and the world. “President Zelensky’s number one request was to be able to more effectively use long range weapons to hit key Russian military targets to put pressure on Putin to come to the table. He emphasized that without a change in military strategy, the war gets more difficult. “If the Biden-Harris Administration continues the policy of holding Ukraine back because they are worried about escalation, the outcome of the war will be placed in jeopardy. “In order for Ukraine to prevail, President Zelensky must be allowed to execute his plan, which includes hitting legitimate military targets inside Russia that are being used to go after Ukrainian civilians and energy infrastructure. “It is in America’s interests to ensure Putin does not succeed in dismembering Ukraine because that will unleash China on Taiwan, and Putin will not stop in Ukraine. “This is a decisive week in the war. President Biden and Vice President Harris need to get it right.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:46:43Z |
