Alexander Vindman said Saturday that the former president 'bears enormous burden of responsibility' for the war, citing his first impeachment trial.
Former Army Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman said Saturday that Former President Donald Trump"set conditions in motion" for the Russia-Ukraine war. Above, Trump speaks at a rally on April 9 in North Carolina.On Saturday, the former colonel said:"The first impeachment of Donald Trump was all about holding up aid to Ukraine. He blocked javelins, he blocked aid to Ukraine. That's why he was impeached.
Vindman said he has previously discussed how"this corrupt scheme was potentially going to embolden Russia, precipitate this kind of confrontation. I couldn't imagine the scale but something on that order of magnitude." "And my worst fears came to pass that Donald Trump set the conditions in motion for this war that's not just affecting Ukraine and the countless lives in Ukraine, but has real implications for U.S. national security, has the ability to draw the U.S. into this war as it extends into the future. And Donald Trump bears enormous burden of responsibility for that, and for his attack on democracy, for presenting the U.S.
"Remember that with Ukraine, I sent the javelins that you've seen are so effective against the tanks. Biden didn't," he told the crowd."And, in fact, he ended our last order. Probably it'll get there because everyone realized it was the right thing to do."
