Kremlin says Russia's victory is inevitable; President Biden urges not letting Putin win
(Baonghean.vn) - According to TASS news agency, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov also noted that Western countries affirmed that the special military campaign that Russia conducted in Ukraine must end, "but they want to end it with Russia's defeat."
Specifically, Mr. Peskov told reporters that the West wants Russia to lose the Ukraine conflict, but the situation on the battlefield shows the inevitable opposite.
Western countries say the special military operation must end, "but they want to end it with Russia's defeat," he noted.
“On the one hand, they want this war to stop, but on the other hand, they are prolonging it by throwing money into the furnace of war,” Mr. Peskov added.
In another development, Reuters news agency reported that on December 6, US President Joe Biden urgently called on Republicans to agree to pump more military aid into Ukraine, warning that Russia's victory in Ukraine would give Moscow the power to attack US NATO allies and possibly draw US troops into the war.
Biden spoke as the US plans to announce an additional $175 million in aid to Ukraine as money supplies to Kiev dwindle. He signaled a willingness to make significant changes to US migration policy along the border with Mexico in an effort to win over Republicans.
“If Putin takes Ukraine, he won’t stop there,” President Biden said. The US leader predicted that Putin would attack a NATO ally, and then “we’ll have something we’re not looking for and we don’t have right now: American troops fighting Russian troops.”
“We cannot let Putin win,” Mr. Biden asserted.
But then, Republicans in the US Senate blocked a Democratic-backed bill that would have provided billions of dollars in new security aid to Ukraine and Israel. Among other international concerns, Republicans said they wanted to emphasize the importance of tightening border policies.
