Has US military aid come in time for President Zelensky?
Manage episode 417256846 series 1301456
The war in Ukraine has reached a pivotal moment.
After months of an apparent stalling on the frontlines, Russia has recently made a series of critical breakthroughs.
Now the race is on for Kyiv to get newly approved military aid to the front line before Russian forces attack Ukraine’s second largest city, Kharkiv.
The 60 billion dollar bill passed in America’s congress at the end of April allows for Ukraine to push back against Russian forces and prepare to mount an offensive next year.
But a gap in the supply of missiles has left Kyiv dangerously exposed and huge questions remain about how Ukraine’s President will act next.
So, on this week’s Inquiry, we’re asking ‘Has US military aid come in time for President Zelensky?’
