Obama defense secretary blasts Biden’s handling of classified documents, Ukraine war

JTN
Obama administration Defense Secretary Robert Gates is criticizing President Joe Biden’s response to Ukraine and his mishandling of classified documents from his time as vice president.

“This is basically the responsibility of the president to educate people about why this is necessary,” Gates said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

He stressed that Biden needs to tell the American public why the U.S. needs to “confront” Russian President Vladimir Putin for waging war on Ukraine “so we don’t end up confronting him somewhere where our own forces are directly involved.”

Gates said the message needs to be “repeated over, and over, and over again,” including by members of Congress in their home districts. 

Biden, who was President Obama’s vice president, should have acted more quickly to send Abrams tanks to Ukraine, as the current timeline is six months to a year or more before the equipment arrives, Gates also said. more

  1. How about we concentrate on protecting our border, developing more gas/oil resources, and find out why our food infrastructures are under attack. If we do that we don’t need to worry about Russia or Chiner.
