Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Sunday that ā€œmillions will be killedā€ in his countryā€™s war with Russia without additional funding from the United States.

CNNā€™s Kaitlan Collins asked Zelensky in an interview to respond to comments made by Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), who claimed Ukraineā€™s outcome in its war will not be changed even if it receives the President Bidenā€™s $60 billion aid request. Zelensky said he wasnā€™t sure if Vance ā€œunderstands what is going on here.ā€

ā€œTo understand it is to come to the front line to see whatā€™s going on, to speak with the people, then to go to civilians to understand ā€¦ what will [happen to] them without this support. And he will understand that millions ā€¦ will be killed. Itā€™s a fact,ā€ Zelensky said.

    Isnā€™t it amazing how what Russia is doing in Ukraine isnā€™t genocide simply because of how Biden handles it?

    Who knew that the definition of ā€œgenocideā€ was entirely reliant on what one US president did.

    Seems no ratsā€™s asses are given about whatā€™s going on over there, nor any props given that Biden is helping them to defend themselves-

        And theyā€™re still doing that. Guess itā€™s just not cool anymore to mention it now that Biden is an easier target for right wing pripaganda.

      Biden could come up with world peace, feed everyone for free and have health insurance for everyone along with the best economy weā€™ve ever seeen and the Republicans would still be talking shit about a made up laptop.
