Published by

Failure to back Ukraine in its war against Russia would be a gift to Russian leader Vladimir Putin, US Vice President Kamala Harris said Friday, while new military aid was stalled in Congress.

“We will work to secure critical weapons and resources that Ukraine so badly needs and let me be clear, the failure to do so would be a gift to Vladimir Putin,” Harris said in a speech at the Munich Security Conference in Germany.
