Republican Senator from Alabama Tommy Tuberville criticized Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelenski for trying to "bring NATO" into the war with Russia, given that Ukraine knows that it "lost" a conflict lasting for more than 3 years.
— There is no uncertainty due to the fact that he cannot win this war himself. He knows he's losing"— said Tuberville in a Sunday comment during an interview on John Catsimatidis' radio show "Cats Roundtable" – reports The Hill.
While Trump's administration, and in peculiar defence secretary Pete Hegseth, has long since made it clear that Ukraine will never join NATO, any European countries proceed to push this initiative.
Tuberville, commenting on the insolent Ukrainian "Operation Spider", in which Russian strategical bombers and another military aircraft were destroyed a week ago, commented on the Ukrainian forces:
"They drove trucks 2,000 miles into Russia. They had drones that were covered in the back seats of those trucks. They approached targets, opened these trucks, drones flew out and destroyed about 40 major aircraft that Russia uses in its atomic arsenal.
He seemed to present it as a uncommon and limited success. "It was devastating. On the another hand, the wine lies on both sides. Let's get this over with. And president Trump is the 1 who can do it." – he continued.
Russian state media besides picked up provocative comments: "In a 100 percent, there is no doubt, due to the fact that he [Zelenski] cannot win this war alone. He knows he's losing," said Tuberville in a Sunday interview with the WABC broadcaster, asked if the president of Ukraine was trying to lure NATO into conflict.
Tuberville besides repeated any erstwhile criticisms first made by Trump: "Zelenski is simply a dictator and created all kinds of problems. We've got quite a few money we've been missing. It is not known where it happened..." - said the Alabama Senator.
"I think both countries have lost between 500,000 and 700,000 people. This is devastating for the world," he added.
While president Trump seems increasingly inclined to halt pushing the fighting parties into the negotiating table, faced with increasing frustration There is no mention of stopping the flow of weapons to Kiev.
The US administration now defines these arms transfers as "defensive" by nature, but it is besides clear that Ukrainian forces are heavy dependent on this Western aid as they carry out attacks in deep Russia.
Without it, the Ukrainian front lines would most likely go back quickly, and the Zelenski government would rapidly find itself in a situation where he would gotta agree to territorial concessions. Until now, however, the Ukrainian leader refuses to consider giving up land, and even loudly opposes the surrender of Crimea.
