Backlash at Ted Cruz after he tells Fox News that Biden started war in Ukraine [View all]
Texas Senator Ted Cruz assigned baseless blame for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to President Joe Biden on Monday as the Trump-aligned segment of the Republican Party continues to insist that former President Donald Trump, who enjoyed a famously warm relationship with Vladimir Putin, would have prevented the war.
Mr Cruz made the comments on Monday evening on Fox News, speaking with the network’s Sean Hannity.
“Joe Biden caused this war with Ukraine. How did he do it? When he waived sanctions on Nord Stream 2, sanctions that I authored, that I wrote, that Donald Trump signed into law,” Mr Cruz charged.
He went on to falsely imply that the Nord Stream 2 project had been completed “to let Putin get his gas to Europe”. The Nord Stream 2 pipeline finished construction in September after Mr Biden waived sanctions at Germany’s request, but the pipeline itself never became operational, and may well never be used following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine which has caused the project to fall into the sights of the White House.
