Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Sunday that ā€œmillions will be killedā€ in his countryā€™s war with Russia without additional funding from the United States.

CNNā€™s Kaitlan Collins asked Zelensky in an interview to respond to comments made by Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), who claimed Ukraineā€™s outcome in its war will not be changed even if it receives the President Bidenā€™s $60 billion aid request. Zelensky said he wasnā€™t sure if Vance ā€œunderstands what is going on here.ā€

ā€œTo understand it is to come to the front line to see whatā€™s going on, to speak with the people, then to go to civilians to understand ā€¦ what will [happen to] them without this support. And he will understand that millions ā€¦ will be killed. Itā€™s a fact,ā€ Zelensky said.

    JD Vance is a charlatan and a spokesperson for the alt-right. He didnā€™t write Hillbilly Elegy, and heā€™s actively promoting the presidency of someone who said they would turn the US into a dictatorship.
