Biden: Putin wants to erase Ukraine, he must be stopped
U.S. President Joe Biden condemned Russia’s missile attacks on Ukraine and called on Congress to urgently approve additional funding for our country.
This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to the Voice of America.
Russia has fired drones, missiles, and rockets, including missiles with hypersonic capabilities at Ukrainian cities and civilian targets, killing and injuring innocent people, the statement said.
"This attack is a stark reminder that even after almost two years of this devastating war, Putin's goals remain the same. He wants to erase Ukraine and subjugate its people. He must be stopped."
Biden reminded that air defense systems provided by the United States and allies and partners "have successfully intercepted and destroyed a large number of missiles and drones." "Americans can be proud of the lives we have helped save and the support we have provided to Ukraine in defending its people, its freedom and its independence," Biden said.
In order to continue to provide support, it is necessary for Congress to urgently approve new funding for Ukraine, the US President emphasized.
He emphasized that the war in Ukraine affects the world, and Putin is also threatening the US NATO allies, which could eventually draw the US into war. "We cannot let our allies down. We cannot let Ukraine down. History will judge harshly those who do not answer the call of freedom," Biden emphasized.
