Description

The horrors in Ukraine only get worse. Russian forces fired missiles at a train station where thousands of civilians had gathered to flee the fierce fighting in the eastern region of Dunbas. At least fifty people were killed including five children and around one hundred were injured. Coming during a week that Western leaders led by President Biden accused the Russians of war crimes and Ukrainian President Zelensky charged that the Russians were engaged in genocide. The rocket attack on a train station only underscored the most pressing issue at the moment. What more can the United States and its allies do to stop Putin's aggression? Few have more consistently called for the US to provide more weapons and military aid to Ukraine than Evelyn Farkas, a former top Pentagon official under President Obama. She joins us to discuss.
