Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, just hours ago in this Chamber, the Prime Minister of Japan asked this Congress: ``Without U.S. support, how long before the hopes of Ukraine would collapse under the onslaught from Moscow?'' The answer is not long. It has been 469 days since we last secured aid for Ukraine. That Ukrainians continue to mount a courageous and effective defense despite our inaction is a testament to their skill on the battlefield and their determination and courage to defend democracy. They are running dangerously low on ammunition, however. They cannot prevail without our help. I echo what Prime Minister Kishida said today: ``The leadership of the United States is indispensable.'' Let us not retreat from leadership. Let us not leave our Ukrainian allies without ammunition. America is the world's hope. Let us not fall short. ____________________”
