According to Republican representative Matt Rosendale of Montana, “Despite claims by war hawks on both sides of the aisle, it is not in our national interest to spill American blood and treasure in Ukraine."

Tom Malinowski, a Democrat representative from New Jersey, said Wednesday that some callers to his district office had begun repeating claims that the US should be allied with Russia rather than Ukraine, or that Russia's "reasonable" demands for NATO withdrawal from Eastern Europe be considered.

While speaking to reporters in Kentucky, the Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell  expressed support for Biden's administration, citing that the "Administration is moving in the right direction."

Surprisingly, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told CNN on Saturday "There is a feeling abroad that there is war here. That's not the case."

"I can't be like other politicians who are grateful to the United States just for being the United States," Zelensky said.

Hysteria over Ukraine

The Kremlin has previously denounced the US for driving "hysteria" over a possible Russian invasion of Ukraine with Putin saying the West is "escalating" the Ukraine war.

Regarding Russia's security guarantees, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that negotiations with the West are not over yet and Russia will not allow anyone to ignore its interests, maintaining that the West will not be able to evade the implementation of Moscow's conditions regarding the principle of indivisible security.

Lavrov added that Washington's adoption of a new sanctions package against Russia would be tantamount to severing relations and that American threats to expel the Russian Ambassador from the United States are "ugly", stressing that Russia wants the West to deal with it impartially.

He addressed the West saying that to support diplomacy, they must implement their commitments, adding that "the US and NATO are trying to escape responsibility on security issues."

It is worth mentioning that Russia has repeatedly denied the Western allegations of intending to invade Ukraine, and Moscow's Foreign Intelligence Service accused the US State Department of spreading false information about the alleged troop buildup.
