Retired Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman emphasized the importance of the United States providing new aid to Ukraine in its conflict with Russia, stating that it would enhance Ukraine’s morale and dampen Russia’s spirits.

In an interview with MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell on Friday, Vindman stressed, “I think the U.S. coming through with aid is going to be critical. That will be a big boost of morale and depress Russia’s morale.”

His remarks came as the House advanced legislation to provide aid to Ukraine and other U.S. allies, with a 316-94 vote in favor of the foreign aid rule, allowing for debate on four bills that collectively provide military aid for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, as well as humanitarian aid for Gaza and other war-torn regions.

Vindman expressed his approval of House Speaker Mike Johnson‘s (R-La.) recent statement pledging support for Ukraine aid, saying, “Finally, we hear [House Speaker Mike Johnson] over the past couple of days issue a compelling statement that he’s going to support…the Ukraine aid.

That is critically important because we don’t want to see our troops fighting on the ground in Ukraine.” Johnson exposed the text of the foreign aid bills on Wednesday, aiming to assist Ukraine, Israel, and allies in the Indo-Pacific, as well as humanitarian aid for Gaza and other global hotspots.

The Speaker indicated that a Saturday evening vote on the legislation is anticipated. In a message to lawmakers, he wrote, “By posting text of these bills as soon as they are completed, we will ensure time for a robust amendment process.

We expect the vote on final passage on these bills to be on Saturday evening. Thank you all for your feedback and support. I value every Member of this conference and look forward to continuing our work together.”
