Biden team has ‘deeply rooted hatred for Russia’, warns US lawmaker

Senior Biden administration officials have a “deeply-rooted, irrational hatred of Russia” and seek to get the US involved in another world war, Arizona Congressman Paul Gosar has said.

“Elon is correct,” Gosar wrote in a tweet on Thursday, responding to Twitter CEO Elon Musk’s comments in which he accused the US Under Secretary of State Victoria Nuland of “pushing this war” in Ukraine.

“Both Nuland and Blinken have a deeply rooted irrational hatred of Russia, and they seek to get the US involved in another world war,” the US lawmaker said. “These are dangerous fools who can get us all killed.”

In a follow-up tweet, Gosar wrote that “as a non-soldier, Nuland is quite willing to endorse violence and war.”

He added that she has “endorsed regime change in Russia, celebrated the US destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines, and called for the indefinite flow of arms into Ukraine.”

Gosar has consistently opposed Washington’s policy toward the Ukraine war since Russia announced a “special military operation” a year ago.

Back in October, he slammed Biden for not acting in the interest of Americans, calling on Washington to cut foreign aid to Ukraine.

“NO MORE Foreign Aid, especially not to fund a war that we should have NO involvement in,” Gosar tweeted at the time.

“Biden and his crime family may owe Zelensky, but America doesn’t owe him a damn thing,” the lawmaker stressed, making a reference to President Joe Biden’s son Hunter’s business dealings with Ukraine and Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky’s cover-up of the matter later on.

Meanwhile, the United States on Thursday announced that it is preparing a fresh military aid package to Ukraine worth $2 billion.

President Joe Biden’s national security adviser Jake Sullivan made the disclosure on CNN Thursday night, asserting that Washington is ready to support Kiev for the long haul in the war against Russia.

US announces $2bn in new Ukraine military aid as war completes a year

The United States is preparing a fresh military aid package to Ukraine worth $2 billion, a senior US official has said, defying repeated warnings from Moscow as the war completes one year.

“We’re going to continue to look at what is necessary, and make sure that we provide what is necessary that Ukraine has what it needs to succeed on the battlefield,” Sullivan said while announcing the new aid.

Russia launched what it calls “a special military operation” in Ukraine on February 24, 2022, over the perceived threat of the ex-Soviet republic joining NATO.

Since then, the United States and Ukraine’s other Western allies have supplied it with tens of billions of dollars worth of weapons, including rocket systems, drones, armored vehicles, tanks, and communication systems.

Western countries have also imposed a slew of economic sanctions on Moscow. The Kremlin has repeatedly warned that the sanctions and the Western military assistance will only prolong the war.
