Zelensky Campaigning For Harris In Pennsylvania
If this isn’t foreign interference, then the term has lost all meaning. But hey, when you’re backed by Biden*/Harris/Democrats/Deep State, anything goes, right?
Ukrainian President Zelensky thanks Scranton ammo factory workers for providing munitions for war against Russia
Quote:Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky thanked workers at the Scranton Army Ammunition Plant in Pennsylvania for making the 155mm artillery shells that Ukraine needs to continue the war with Russia.
“I have heard that 400 people work here, but I wanted very much to come here and to thank you. Four hundred people have saved millions of Ukrainians,” Zelensky said, according to a news release that was issued to the media because journalists were not invited to attend Zelensky’s visit, the he media was not permitted inside, the Times-Tribune reported.
Scranton Mayor Paige Gebhardt Cognetti was apparently touched to see Zelensky get up close and personal with the employees at the plant. "It was an incredibly proud moment for Scranton to welcome President Zelensky to our city and the munitions plant where so many Scrantonians work or have relatives who worked there," Cognetti said.
Zelensky toured the defense production factory for about 90 minutes at that time. Also in attendance were Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA), Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) and Rep. Matt Cartwright (D-PA). Cartwright passed on a message from President Joe Biden, “Thank you. And we need more.”
The factory is among a handful in the US that make the 155mm shells that are fired from large howitzers systems with long, armor-piercing barrels and that can be towed into place, the outlet noted. Incredibly, while workers in Scranton build armaments that the US can give to Ukraine, the Ukrainians are trying to sell the products of their own defense industry to other countries.
Gov. Shapiro is attempting to be a part of any peace dividend in Ukraine by signing a contract with Zaporizhzhia Regional State (Military) Administration — a province in Southeast Ukraine — that is responsible for the preparation and planning for rebuilding that sector of Ukraine after the war. Shapiro is seeking the participation of Pennsylvania businesses in the rebuilding effort as part of the state government’s Department of Community & Economic Development.
“Pennsylvania is the birthplace of American freedom – and our Commonwealth proudly stands with the people of Ukraine as they fight for their freedom against naked aggression,” Shapiro said of the war between Russia and Ukraine.
Scranton’s mayor said Zelensky’s tour was an opportunity to see what the Biden-Harris administration has used to back Ukraine. "The tour of the plant was not just a tour of where artillery shells have been made, it's also an acknowledgment of the investment of the Department of Defense," Cognetti said. "There is over a quarter of a billion dollars investment going into that plant in downtown Scranton. I think that shows the US continues to back Ukraine in this war. We all want it to be over, but it seems like it's going to be a long fight to get where Ukraine needs to be."
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has warned Americans that the foreign policy failures of the Biden-Harris administration, especially in Ukraine and the Middle East, are bringing the US to the brink of “World War III.”

RE: Zelensky Campaigning For Harris In Pennsylvania
The PostMillenial story didn't have anything stating Zelensky calling out Trump and the GOP. The New Yorker snippet MIGHT be a display of Zelensky "attacking" Trump and Vance; however, it's a snippet and I'd like to see the larger context before making a judgement one way or the other.

I thought the left was fighting hard to keep foreign countries from influencing American elections, no?

Even a lot of people who are sympathetic to Ukraine, and want to help Ukraine, are not going to be okay with this. Not at all.

RE: Zelensky Campaigning For Harris In Pennsylvania
Quote:Joe Biden and Kamala Harris just flew a foreign leader into a swing state, on a military plane, during early voting of an election year, so that this foreign leader could campaign on their behalf against Donald Trump.
This is overt foreign election interference — the direct use of a foreign power, with its own interests, to meddle in America's elections. And it's all financed with taxpayer money.
Whether Harris wins or loses, this should be considered an impeachable offense.
So they freak out about a phone call that Trump had with Zelenskyy, but they literally fly him to the states?

Im sure Zelensky would prefer Harris to win---but he will be meeting with Trump as well during this visit. My guess is he wont like everything Trump has to say---but I suspect he will leave that Trump meeting feeling less uneasy about a Trump win.

He’s a pain in the a$$ this guy.
Trump needs to show HIM a picture of HIS house, give him a little wink and tell him we’ll talk soon.

Yes, but Donald may get us into a war, right??? Right???. This election is about keeping us in a damn war for the globalists and their agenda and for the election of 'Crats! That's why the Corporate Elite here and in Europe are shoving cash up Kamala's arse like she was and is needing a gerbil on Cocaine to get her off!

I guess he's not too worried about the war in his country if he has time for this.
