Summary

On Wednesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed the United States Congress with a poignant plea for aid. Zelenskyy used images and videos displaying the death and devastation that had befallen the country since Russia's deadly military attack in a request for a no-fly zone over Ukraine among other things. FOX News Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram discusses the strengths of President Zelenskyy's speech, what's to be expected from Congress, and complications with Ukraine's request for aid. Major countries across the globe have imposed sanctions and isolated Russia from their banking systems, however, there are growing concerns within the United States about one of Russia's main allies. Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated on Thursday that the U.S. would punish China if President Xi chose to give military aid to Russia. FOX News State Department Correspondent Rich Edson discusses the severe cost consequences of cutting off the Chinese economy, the complicated position China has with the Western forces, and the U.S. State Department’s involvement in negotiations between Russia and Ukraine.
