What said Chuck Schumer during a powerful speech in Ukraine

We were supposed to be here. There was no choice. It's a responsibility because there's a lot at stake. Here in Ukraine… It is obvious that Ukraine's freedom is at stake. And this is so important. “Not only for the Ukrainian people, but for the whole world,” said the representative of the Democrats.

He said that Ukraine needs support, but the American delegation is in Ukraine because the United States is now at a turning point and turning point.

In particular, Chuck Schumer said :

• “If we do not support our allies, then they all over the world will evade and move away from us;
• if we allow our enemies to destroy the world, they will not stop.”

And we will see bigger, bigger problems and conflicts in Europe, but not only in Europe. In China, with China, with Iran, in the Middle East and everywhere in the United States, which has done so much for freedom in the world, for peace in the world, for security in the world, especially since World War II. If we turn our backs on Ukraine, it will have consequences that will last a long time. And this will mean that for decades America will lose diplomatically, politically, economically and militarily,” Schumer said.

The US Senate Majority Leader explained that he is amazed by Zelensky , his strength, power and devotion.

An American politician assured that on the eve of the second anniversary of the Kremlin's invasion, an American delegation arrived in Ukraine to say that they are with the Ukrainian people.

We will not leave you. “We will fight, fight and fight to get this necessary help to you and your brave soldiers,” the politician assured.

He added that the American delegation in Ukraine “to say to the Ukrainian people that we are with you and to tell Europe that we are not leaving it.” Schumer assured that the United States must remain part of NATO.

American and Ukrainian officials told us that without help, Ukraine would lose the war, with dire consequences for the United States and the West, the Democratic Party official assured.

He added that if Ukraine had more weapons, then the result would have been different. If the United States does not provide assistance to Ukraine, then it will lose, and Russia will end up at the Polish border.

More In addition, senators invited Speaker Johnson to Ukraine so that he could see with his own eyes the horrors of war. After all, it was the Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Republican Mike Johnson, who said that he would not bring the Ukraine aid bill to a vote. Although the Senate has already voted for an aid package to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.

Senators said they were amazed by the fresh graves from the cemetery in Lviv and called on Speaker Johnson not to stand on the sidelines of history, because he is now carrying just such a burden.

What Zelensky said about the meeting with senators

Vladimir Zelensky also summed up his visit to Lviv. The Ukrainian leader said that he met with American senators led by Chuck Schumer.

The President thanked the US Senate for voting for the aid package to Ukraine. After all, it is not ordinary, but is of fundamental importance for our defense both in terms of its content and in terms of what signal the support or non-support of this package gives to the world.

He informed the senators about the situation on the battlefield, namely about the direct connection between what weapons our soldiers have and what results our common enemy achieves. Zelensky said that:

• sufficiency of artillery, sufficiency of range – these are the key things for us, for our Defense Forces;
• we are working very actively to deprive Russian aircraft of the opportunity to dominate the skies near the front in 2024 and on joint defense production projects;
• the Ukrainian side discussed relevant priorities with the American delegation.

US Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said that he heads a representative delegation to Congress , who will meet with President Zelensky to achieve four important goals:

• to demonstrate to the Ukrainian people that the U.S. and will continue to fight to get the funding it so desperately needs and so desperately deserves. We will not stop fighting until we achieve this;
• to assure our NATO and European allies that we stand side by side with them, and that the United States will not leave Europe and our most long-standing and successful Alliance, which is NATO;
• to understand in detail what kind of weapons Ukraine really needs, and the consequences of disrupting their supplies. That is, to learn about the specific benefits that Russia will receive if weapons are not supplied, and about the benefits that Ukraine will receive if weapons are provided;
• we believe that we are at is a turning point in history, and we must make it clear to our friends and allies around the world that The United States will not retreat from our responsibilities and allies. Failure to support our allies will result in severe political, diplomatic, economic and military consequences that will cause significant harm to the American people for decades to come.

< p class="bloquote cke-markup">When we return to Washington, we will make clear to Speaker Johnson and other members of Congress who are blocking military and economic support exactly what is at stake here in Ukraine, as well as for the rest of the Europe and the free world. “We will continue to work to ensure that Congress steps up, does its duty, and helps our friends and allies,” Schumer said.

By the way, the House of Representatives went into recess on February 16 , without voting for aid to Ukraine. Politicians will rest until the end of February 2024.
