US' big charge: Vladimir Putin seeking to 'take advantage' of Israel-Hamas war

  • Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin warns that if the United States halts support for Ukraine, Putin will succeed in seizing Ukrainian territory. He states that without US support, Putin will only grow stronger and achieve his goal of acquiring his neighbor's sovereign territory.
  • Secretary of State Antony Blinken highlights the importance of US aid for Ukraine and warns that a halt in aid could encourage other countries to follow suit, sending a message that the United States is abandoning ship. He emphasizes the significant burden sharing that the US provides and how it would likely disappear if the US withdraws its support.
  • The US has been the largest donor of military aid to Ukraine, committing $43.9 billion since the Russian invasion in February 2022. This aid has helped Ukraine regain ground seized by Moscow. However, future assistance from the US is uncertain due to opposition from hardline Republican lawmakers.
