Summary
Some GOP candidates in the 2022 election are trying to avoid the fray by saying they’re simply not concerned about Ukraine.After Biden announced a set of sanctions targeting Russia’s banks and sovereign debt, Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., said the president’s actions were “too little, too late,” arguing that sanctions should have been in place before Putin sent in troops and criticized his “flagrant disregard for the rule of law.”Top House Republicans, including Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, called Putin’s actions “reprehensible,” blaming it on “appeasement” and lack of “strong action” by the administration.“The U.S. and our allies must now make the Putin regime pay for this aggression,” they said.In the 2022 elections, GOP candidates are all over the place.J.D. Vance, a Republican candidate in a crowded Ohio Senate primary, said on former Trump adviser Steve Bannon’s show that the conflict doesn’t concern him.
