GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) — Wisconsin Republican US Senator Ron Johnson says the US isn’t responding to the situation in Ukraine quickly and decisively enough.
Johnson, on WTAQ’s ‘The Morning News with Matt and Earl’ criticized US policy in Ukraine.
“There’s been a little too much ambiguity from the Biden Administration in terms of what our goal is,” Johnson told hosts Matt Z and Earl Brooker. “I think our goal needs to be to support the Ukrainian people to achieve the victory that the Ukrainian people want.”
Johnson, says that means supplying the Ukrainian military with weapons.
“I think there was a tweet from [Ukraine’s] defense secretary saying ‘if you provide us the weaponry, we will fight and die for your freedom and ours,” said Johnson. “I think that accurately portrays what the Ukrainians are doing right now.”
Johnson adds Ukraine may have not been able to press their advantage when Russia was redeploying troops from the country’s north to the country’s east due to a lack of firepower.
