America is now a full-fledged ally of Vladimir Putin (a war criminal) and Russia. The Republican Party is solely responsible for this. America will be dealing with the negative consequences of their decision for generations to come.

Defense hawks argue that Putin cannot be trusted and must be held accountable for war crimes. Despite some GOP support for Trump’s diplomatic efforts, a growing number of Republicans insist that acknowledging Russia as the aggressor is crucial for securing a meaningful peace deal.

Kristen Welker opened her interview with Mullin by asking him to acknowledge that Putin was at the very least "responsible for starting the war in Ukraine."

Ukraine, Europe, Canada, and even some members of the Republican party have responded with fury to President Donald Trump’s effort to resolve the conflict.

Republican Rep. Don Bacon, a staunch supporter of Ukraine, asserts that "real Republicans know that Putin’s Russia hates the West and freedom."
