U.S. Vice President JD Vance said on April 14 that he is proud of Washington cutting off funding to Ukraine amid Russian aggression, listing it among the Trump administration’s top achievements.

Speaking at a Turning Point USA event in Athens, Georgia, Vance recalled being confronted by a Ukrainian-American over his calls to halt funding for Ukraine.

“And this person got really agitated at me because I was saying we should stop funding the Ukraine war,” Vance said.

    Hopefully Ukraine requires no further US aid. With Orban out of the picture, maybe the EU can finally step up to help in a bigger way.

        Centre-right. A marginal improvement isn’t perfection but … it’s an improvement. If an end to cronyist conservatism is the only win we get today, let’s take it; and plan another improvement for next time.
