Summary
Sen. Lindsey Graham warned that halting U.S. military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine could be “worse than Afghanistan.”
He urged continued support until a ceasefire is reached and announced plans for sanctions on Russia’s banking and energy sectors.
The Trump administration paused aid after a heated Oval Office meeting where Trump and JD Vance clashed with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy. Russia escalated attacks following the fallout.
U.S. and Ukrainian officials will meet in Saudi Arabia to discuss a minerals deal and ceasefire, while Trump seeks further concessions from Ukraine.
The man with no moral fiber or spine is flip flopping again
Well asshole look in the mirror and realize this is on you, you fucking asshole
With these comments it’s difficult to tell whose cock he’s gargling.
Huh… I didn’t expect Graham to regurgitate a position opposing Trump and Russia.
Somebody must’ve outbid the oligarchs…
This is the same Lindsey Graham that called Trump’s manufactured temper tantrum an outrage that Zelensky was the sole person responsible for.
He’ll say the opposite next week. Lady G just dances for whoever he’s trying to please.
And I’m supposed to take him seriously because?..
I doubt even Republicans take Lady G seriously.
This is just what he’s saying today, already weeks late mind you. He’ll be singing different soon.
Trump thinks he fixed afghanistan.
And every US president since Bush thought, that they were fixing Afghanistan. And it let nowhere, except killing a lot of people and wasting a lot of tax payer money, aka. enriching the MIC buddies of the Republican and Democrat party.
Pulling out of Afghanistan was reasonable. The US should have learned since Vietnam, that they are not fixing anything with invading other countries and forcing a regime change. However they also don’t want to fix anything. They want to destabilize and destroy, to prevent regions from emerging as economic and strategic competitors and to enrich their MIC buddies.
Also Vietnam was not a war fought primarily against North Vietnam, it was fought against the civilian resistance against the French/US installed colonial regime in South Vietnam.
No they claimed they had a plan. The orange turd thinks he really fixed it. The US should have learned something from Vietnam but none of that stuff you are talking about.
Worthless traitor cunt.
Key bit: “ he urged support until a ceasefire is reached….”
Anyone remember what happened in Georgia when a ceasefire was reached?
Why go so far? Ukraine had a ceasefire with Russia between 2019 and 2022. There were even working mechanisms to deal with conflicts. Russia showed it can’t be trusted.
The Ukrainian government made no effort to implement Minsk II, had it been implemented then this war would likely not have happened.
Minsk explicity stated that elections come first and then withdrawal. Ukraine wanted Russia to withdraw first before allowing elections in the DPR and LPR which was against the agreement.
Ukraine also had the obligation to uphold linguistic rights to ethnic minorities but violated the Minsk Agreements with the 2019 language law which didn’t outright ban the Russian language but did discriminate against those who did not speak Ukrainian or an EU language.
Zelenskyy initially did campaign on a pro-peace platform but he was quickly pressured by far right militias to do otherwise.
You mean the law regarding Crimea and Donbas that Europe persuaded Ukraine to withdraw a month before Nazi Russia decided to violate the ceasefire? That’s a great example of the ceasefire mechanisms working.
The language law was only approved after the invasion, and given the Ruskyy Mir speech, it’s not surprising Ukraine is not comfortable with promoting Russian inside their borders.
You mean the law regarding Crimea and Donbas that Europe persuaded Ukraine to withdraw a month before
Yes, problem is that despite the 26 January 2022 Normandy Format meeting that resulted in this, Russia received no words about Ukraine’s readiness to swiftly start the implementation of the Minsk agreements.
Zelenskyy himself even admitted that he never intended to implement Minsk.
The language law was only approved after the invasion
What do you mean? It was declared effective on 16 July 2019.
I think you are confusing the 2019 law with the 19 June 2022 restriction on Russian books and music.
Nazi Russia
Is Russia composed of Nazis?
Lindsay Graham is a bitch
Why the fuck does one person have the authority to make these calls anyway.
Fucking windsock
Lindsey, just a few days ago:
“He either needs to resign and send somebody over that we can do business with, or he needs to change,” Graham said.
Now you push back?! Fuck you Lindsey. You are a traitorous peace of shit and no one will remember you
Wasn’t he praising little d just last week on this very thing?
Speaking to reporters in the White House driveway right afterward, South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham predicted that the shouting match could end U.S. support for Zelenskyy, calling the meeting a “complete, utter disaster.”
“Somebody asked me, am I embarrassed about Trump. I have never been more proud of the president. I was very proud of JD Vance standing up for our country. We want to be helpful. What I saw in the Oval Office was disrespectful, and I don’t know if we can ever do business with Zelenskyy again," Graham, the Senate Budget Committee Chairman, said. “The way he handled the meeting, the way he confronted the president, was just over the top.”
Yeah, it wasn’t a disaster or over the top because of anything little d or “JD” “Vance” did during their planned ambush of a guy trying to fight off a dictator invading his country. Not according to Lindsey. Last week, anyway.
Lindsey Graham has flip flopped on Ukraine with dizzying frequency since January 20
Did they fire the large hadron collider again?!
