Elissa Slotkin Instagram – Yesterday, I sat down with a delegation of Ukrainian parliamentarians – including my friend Sasha Ustinova – for a frank discussion on the way forward on Ukraine as conflict roils in the Middle East.
The potential for a wider regional conflict that targets U.S. forces and resources is very real, so it’s important we start talking about the implications for Ukraine, particularly as we enter the third week with no Speaker of the House, and no way to bring bills to the floor.
In addition, we discussed the impressive growth of defense manufacturing in Ukraine since the start of the war — and ways the US can help further that indigenous development. In need of faster production, Ukrainian engineers have been hard at work to secure a steady supply of the capabilities they need to continue fighting Russia. | Posted on 25/Oct/2023 18:45:20
