Kentucky Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell took another shot at President Donald Trump this week, suggesting the 47th president’s refusal to blame Russia as the sole aggressor who provoked the war in Ukraine “reflects a gross misunderstanding of the nature of negotiations and leverage.”
In a statement commemorating the third anniversary of the war, McConnell asserted that Vladimir Putin bears sole responsibility for the “human catastrophe” and warned that even if Ukrainian forces surrendered their weapons, “Putin’s aims would not stop with Kyiv.”
