 Dangerous call for Ukraine from U.S. lawmakers. Matt Getz, a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, called upon Washington to persuade Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky to start peace talks. America has sent enough money to Ukraine. We should tell Zelensky to seek peace. The lawmaker wrote on his page in the ex-social network. The United States needs to accept that Ukraine is going to cede some territory to Russia and bring the conflict to a close. Republican Senator James David Vance has argued, stressing that it's in the interests of both the U.S. and Ukraine to stop the fighting. Speaking to CNN, the lawmaker explained why he opposes additional aid to Ukraine, saying it is very unlikely that Kiev will be able to overpower Russia and recover lost land and that further financial and military assistance will only prolong the conflict. What is $61 billion going to accomplish that $100 billion has not? Vance asked. That everybody, with a brain in their heads, knows that the conflict will end in negotiations. The idea that Ukraine was going to throw Russia back to 1991 borders is preposterous. Nobody actually believes it. He said, We are getting to a place where we are going to be functionally on the hook to pay for the Ukrainian pensioners to rebuild the country. He continued, arguing that the White House should concentrate on bringing the killing to a stop, rather than writing more blank checks.
