"America Needs A Churchill"

Republican hardliners have lashed out at Trump.

Influential Republicans and former national security officials have called on U.S. President Donald Trump to increase pressure on Putin instead of demanding concessions from Kyiv. This call comes in response to the easing of sanctions on Russian fuel, public attacks on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and reports of disruptions in U.S. satellite communications used by the Ukrainian military, according to New York Post (translation by Charter97.org).

Republican Congressman Don Bacon compared the current policy of the U.S. president to the appeasement of Nazi Germany before World War II.

“Our president has come to resemble Neville Chamberlain. We need a Churchill,” Bacon wrote on social media (X Rep. Don Bacon 🇺🇸✈️🏍️⭐️🎖️ (@RepDonBacon) on X, referring to the British prime minister who attempted to negotiate with Adolf Hitler.

Former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also called for continued military support for Ukraine. Washington must provide Ukrainian forces with the capability to launch long-range strikes to force Moscow back to the negotiating table.

“Putin has repeatedly demonstrated that he responds to pressure, not goodwill,” said Congressman Michael McCaul, demanding that the Trump administration fully enforce sanctions against Russia.

Particular outrage was sparked by a deal to ease restrictions on Russian diesel fuel. Critics fear that Moscow will receive additional billions of dollars to finance the war. At the same time, the Ukrainian military reported disruptions in the operation of Starshield—the military version of the Starlink satellite communication system. The causes of the disruptions and the possible role of the U.S. administration have not yet been determined.

Lawmakers from both parties have also called on the Pentagon’s inspector general to investigate the satellite communication issues.

According to Trump’s critics, the only way to force the Kremlin to negotiate is by raising the cost of continuing the war, not by weakening Ukraine’s defenses.
