0:56Now PlayingPresident Joe Biden directly appealed to the American people to support funding for Israel and Ukraine’s war efforts, warning that Hamas and Russian President Vladimir Putin pose parallel threats to US democracy.
The roughly 15 minute Oval Office address precedes a formal White House request that Congress provide roughly $100 billion in resources for Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan and the US southern border. Biden argued that supporting Ukraine and Israel in their fights against Russia and militant groups, respectively is “vital for America’s national security.”
“I know these conflicts can seem far away, and it’s natural to ask why does this matter to America,” Biden said Thursday. “Hamas and Putin represent different threats. They share this in common: they both want to completely annihilate a neighboring democracy.”
