US Public Support Declines for Providing Weapons to Ukraine, Poll Shows

US Public Support Declines , for Providing Weapons to Ukraine, Poll Shows.

According to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll, only 41% of respondents felt that the U.S. should continue to "provide weapons to Ukraine.".

35% said that America should not provide the war-torn country with weapons, while the rest of respondents were unsure.

In May of this year, 46% of Americans supported sending arms to Ukraine, and only 29% were opposed.

The newest poll was conducted as Congress debates fulfilling President Joe Biden's request for another $24 billion for Ukraine.

$17 billion of those funds would go toward defense, Reuters reports.

Since Russia attacked in February 2022, the U.S. has given Ukraine $44 billion to supply its war efforts with tanks, rockets and ammunition.

Elizabeth Hoffman, director of congressional and government affairs at the Center for Strategic & International Studies.

Says that much of the funds allocated for Ukraine stay in America.

For example, some goes toward jobs at U.S. weapons manufacturers.

If the messaging were more clear, she says, support for more aid might increase.

The declining support is having a negative effect on congressional support, and eventually, prospects for additional aid packages, Elizabeth Hoffman, director of congressional and government affairs at the Center for Strategic & International Studies, via statement.

ā€˜Nonsense Situationā€™: Zelensky Says Russian Offensive on Kharkiv Could be 'First Wave' of Attacks

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has sharply criticised Western countries for imposing restrictions on the use of donated arms, accusing them of being "afraid" of both a Russian and Ukrainian defeat. In a candid interview with AFP on Friday, Zelensky expressed his frustration over the conditions placed on the use of long-range weapons supplied to Kiev. ā€œThey can fire any weapons from their territory at ours. This is the biggest advantage that Russia has. We canā€™t do anything to their systems, which are located on the territory of Russia, with Western weapons,ā€ Zelensky stated in the interview aired on Saturday. This restriction significantly hampers Ukraine's ability to retaliate against Russian forces effectively. #ZelenskySpeaks #KharkivOffensive #FirstWaveAttacks #UkraineUnderFire #RussianAggression #DefendUkraine #WesternSupport #MilitaryConflict #UkraineCrisis #StandWithUkraine #EasternEuropeWar #GlobalSecurity #KharkivBattles #UkraineResistance #PeaceForUkraine ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.194~GR.125~

Biden Asserts Executive Privilege Over Audio of Interview With Robert Hur

Biden Asserts Executive Privilege , Over Audio of Interview With Robert Hur. In February, Hur's yearlong investigation into whether President Biden mishandled classified documents ended without enough evidence to support criminal charges. In February, Hur's yearlong investigation into whether President Biden mishandled classified documents ended without enough evidence to support criminal charges. House Republicans were provided a transcript of Biden's interview with Hur, but they wanted the audio, which the DOJ denied. As a result, House Republicans were moving to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress. On May 16, the Department of Justice told House Republicans that the president asserted executive privilege over audio from his interview with the special counsel. The move protects Garland from criminal exposure as GOP lawmakers seek to hold him accountable. Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte explained the DOJ's actions in a letter. The Attorney General must draw a line that safeguards the Department from improper political influence and protects our principles, our law enforcement work, and the people who carry out that work independently, without fear or favor, Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte, via letter . The Committees seek to hold the Attorney General in contempt not for failing in his duties, but for upholding them, Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte, via letter . With the information you now have, the Committees ought not to proceed with contempt and should instead avoid unnecessary and unwarranted conflict, Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte, via letter . White House Counsel Ed Siskel also wrote a letter supporting the assertion of executive privilege. . The absence of a legitimate need for the audio recordings lays bare your likely goalā€”to chop them up, distort them, and use them for partisan political purposes, White House Counsel Ed Siskel, via letter
