to Ukraine on Monday drew a range of attacks from congressional Republicans who criticized his support for the war-torn country and accused him of neglecting issues back at home.
Biden made a surprise visit to Ukraine in what the White House said was a show of support and solidarity for the countryafter Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded nearly a year ago. But Republicans sought to use the images to highlight their issues with Biden’s presidency. The President’s Day criticism, much of which came as Biden was still in the warzone, echoed Republicans who have accused Biden of neglecting the U.S. Southern border and bearing some responsibility for the war in Ukraine.In January, Biden visited the U.S.-Mexico border, where there has been an influx of migrants from Central America seeking asylum.to visit the war zone he created at our southern border, but then he goes to see another war zone he created in Ukraine,” tweeted Rep.
“The U.S. support for war in Ukraine has been like a U.S. proxy war with Russia. But now it’s becoming more like a U.S.- China war through the Ukraine — Russia war. End it now!” tweeted Greene.
