Sen. Joni Ernst, a Republican from Iowa, recently shared her thoughts on a Fox Business Network show. She believes that giving Ukraine Tomahawk missiles could be a game-changer in the ongoing war with Russia.

Key Points

  • Ernst's Perspective:
  • She argues that Ukraine needs to take active steps to win the war, not just defend itself.
  • She acknowledges concerns about the U.S. weapons stockpile but believes careful use of these missiles could make a real difference.
  • Potential Russian Response:
  • Host Stuart Varney asked what Russia might do if Ukraine used these missiles.
  • Ernst responded that Russia is already under a lot of pressure and providing these weapons could give Ukraine the upper hand, potentially forcing Russia to back down.

  • Broader Implications:
  • The idea is not just about giving Ukraine more weapons but tools to change the game.
  • Ernst's comments highlight a growing debate about how best to support Ukraine.
  • The discussion also raises questions about the balance between U.S. military stockpiles and foreign aid.
