In today’s Ukraine War Brief, Yewleea talks about Ukraine’s EU Accession Moving Forward, russia’s Economic Woes, and Trump Holding Up Ukraine Aid. Hear from Michael Kofman, senior fellow in the russia and Eurasia Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, Principal Research Scientist at CNA, Adjunct Senior Fellow at the Center for a New American Security, and a Contributing Editor at War on the Rocks, who talks about why it's wrong to describe the war as a stalemate, and Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY), who makes the case for Ukraine aid in the supplemental brief.
