Senator Mike Rounds opposes peace deal with Russia, calls for more support for Ukraine

Senator Mike Rounds has rejected calls for a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine, stating that Russian President Vladimir Putin cannot be trusted. He expressed frustration over the lack of military support for Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression. Rounds' comments contrast with President-Elect Trump's previous claims that he could quickly end the conflict. Rounds emphasized the need for more equipment and weapons for Ukraine to effectively respond to Russian attacks. This week, Russia intensified its military actions, including a hypersonic missile strike on Dnipro. In response, President Biden approved the use of U.S. Army Tactical Missile Systems for Ukraine, marking a significant policy shift.
