U.S. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky says atrocities committed in Ukraine by Russia should strengthen the resolve of Ukraine’s allies to provide the support necessary for victory.
Senator McConnell says the Biden administration must be quick to act to provide supplies to Ukraine promptly when they are needed.
He says European nations must be willing to take the economic hit that will ensue from cutting off business with Putin going forward.
McConnell says while he has supported many of the steps President Biden has already taken to support Ukraine, he has often wished the president had acted “sooner and more boldly.”
