March 14, 2025 (EIRNS)—Vice President J.D. Vance responded yesterday to Polish President Andrzej Duda’s demand for nuclear weapons yesterday by saying he didn’t think Trump would support that. “I haven’t talked to the President [Donald Trump] about that particular issue, but I would be shocked if he was supportive of nuclear weapons extending further East into Europe,” he told Fox News reporter Laura Ingraham. “We have got to be careful, Laura. We are playing literally with the lives of the future of human civilization.”
“You have people like [Former U.S. President] Joe Biden sleepily walking us into a nuclear conflict,” Vance continued. “We need cooler heads to prevail, [including] on this Russia-Ukraine thing…. The Biden administration’s strategy was literally to shovel weapons at the Ukrainians, allow the Russians and Ukrainians to bleed out and hope that somehow a settlement appeared out of thin air,” he continued.
