Coons: ‘Gravely Concerned’ DeSantis Suggested Ukraine War a Territorial Dispute
Guest host Mike Barnicle asked, “Senator, given the lit fuse that is Ukraine and Russia, and given what happened over the Black Sea, do you have any sense of the communication at the top of the house, each house, secretary of defense here, defense minister in Russia, Putin, the president of the United States, any sense at all of communication that might be going on between the two of them? Then as to your last point you made about Ukraine, what do we do about the surrender caucus on the other side of the aisle from you?”
Coons said, “I can’t share anything in detail this morning about what communications may or may not have happened between our most senior military and political and elected leaders. I will say that I’m gravely concerned that we’ve got some significant voices in the Republican Party suggesting that this isn’t a national security interest, suggesting as the governor of Florida just did, that this is merely a territorial dispute.”
