Leon Panetta actually said...
Well, look, I think one of the worst messages the United States is sending right now to the world and to Russia is, our delaying the supplemental request in terms of military aid to Ukraine, to Israel, to Taiwan, and what's essentially happening is that we are playing Putin's game right now by those who are refusing to take up the supplemental.
Context
Panetta criticizes the U.S. for delaying military aid, suggesting it undermines national security and plays into Russia's hands.
