Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) said Sunday that the United States needs to accept that Ukraine will likely need to “cede some territory” to Russia to end the fighting. Vance told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union” that he is opposed to sending more aid to Ukraine because he does not believe the country will ever be able to overpower Russia. He questioned why sending billions in aid to Ukraine is going to help the country at this point in its war against Russia, considering previous aid has yet to end the war. “What’s in America’s best interest is to accept Ukraine is going to have to cede some territory to the Russians, and we need to bring this war to a close,” Vance said. “But when I think about the great human tragedy here, hundreds of thousands of Eastern Europeans innocent have been killed in this conflict. The thing that’s in our interest and in theirs is to stop the killing.”

    Let them use the. North Koren shells! They are old, bad, poorly made and are blowing up barrels. South Korea just gave a millions shells. Also, last time I checked, Russia had a mercenary group March on the capital. Russia is falling apart.

      I wish I was that optimistic. Maybe I would be if there wasn’t for a few hundred thousand armed Russians nobody cares about still available and the wavering minimal support from the west.

      EU is a joke. At least the Americans gave the 30 year old long range missiles.
