The article discusses ongoing debates in the US Congress regarding military aid to Ukraine amid the conflict with Russia, referencing peace efforts attributed to the Trump administration and accusations of hypocrisy among lawmakers supporting continued weapons shipments.
WASHINGTON, October 11. /TASS/. The US parliamentarians who support the supply of weapons to Ukraine are hypocrites, said Anna Paulina Luna, a member of the House of Representatives (a Republican from Florida).
"Few elected officials currently speaking against President [Donald] Trump’s efforts regarding a peace deal with Russia and Ukraine have actually spoken with the administration or are even aware of what is on the table for Ukraine - or what benefits a related trade deal could offer the American people," she wrote on X.
"This war has to end. Thousands of people are being killed, and the fact that elected officials are calling for continued US supply of munitions to NATO (and thus to Ukraine) highlights the hypocrisy of the situation."
The lawmaker expressed the view that from the very beginning of the conflict, Washington "should have led discussions to end it." Instead, she continued, too many Congress members were busy traveling as part of delegations to Ukraine, "playing the stock market getting rich of the war, and advocating to continue a conflict with no end in sight. This is wrong. Our position should first and foremost have been to negotiate peace." She added that bot farms have now stepped up their work on this issue.
The member of Congress stated that Vladimir Zelensky is "intentionally stalling the peace talks. I got attacked for saying this but it is the truth. The war needs to end."
