Putin’s illegal, aggressive war constitutes a planned genocide, which is the deliberate destruction of a person, the former secretary of state stressed.
Mike Pompeo, who served as U.S. Secretary of State for President Donald Trump in 2018-2021, strongly condemned Russia’s aggression against Ukraine and advocated providing Ukraine with American Abrams tanks and the Patriot system. On that appeal, on Friday, June 24, he spoke at the Hudson Institute.

Moreover, Pompeo compared Putin’s current actions to Joseph Stalin’s actions.
“As long as Putin stays in power, Russia will remain a de facto prison and no country that will put a border for its expansion will be safe,” he added.
Pompeo stressed that the U.S. should support Ukraine and justified it by the need to “avoid a broader conflict in Europe, which would almost certainly require the direct involvement of the U.S. military.”
He also called for the creation of an international coalition to “oppose the actions of Russia and China, whose union could lead to a global economic recession.”
At the same time, he stressed the importance of energy resources for Russia’s economy and international influence, and also criticized the US government for not paying enough attention to the development of America’s leading role in the energy sector. .
Recall, the United States announced a new package of military assistance to Ukraine in the amount of $ 450 million. This time, four additional HIMARS rocket launchers were placed here.
