Republicans claimed President Biden’s remark that Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power” during his trip to Poland played straight into the Russian dictator’s hands.
Sen. Rob Portman claimed that Biden’s speech “plays into the hands of the Russian propagandists.”Sen. Jim Risch asked Biden to “stay on script” when it comes to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.“I wish he would stay on script. Whoever wrote that speech did a good job for him. But my gosh, I wish they would keep him on script,” Risch said of the gaffe-prone president.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken confirmed that the US doesn’t have a strategy of regime change in Russia.“As you know, and as you have heard us say repeatedly, we do not have a strategy of regime change in Russia — or anywhere else, for that matter,” the US’s top diplomat said. “The president had spent the day visiting with Ukrainian refugees. He went to the National Stadium in Warsaw and literally met with hundreds of Ukrainians. He heard their heroic stories as they were fleeing Ukraine in the wake of Russia’s brutal war in Ukraine,”
Risch said the ad-libbed comment from the president during a war that could easily engulf Europe if escalated could have potential dire ramifications.
