US Representative Luna criticizes colleagues who back arms for Ukraine
Anna Paulina Luna, a Republican member of the US House of Representatives from Florida, criticized colleagues who support continued weapons supplies to Ukraine.
She said some lawmakers opposing President Donald Trump’s efforts to reach a peace deal had not spoken with his administration or understood what was being discussed.
Luna argued that the US should have pushed for negotiations from the start of the war.
She said continued weapons supplies would prolong a conflict in which thousands of people are being killed.
She also accused Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky of delaying peace talks.
These are Luna’s claims, and the statement does not provide evidence for them.
She said the war should end through peace negotiations, but gave no details of what happens next.

This story does not have two clearly opposing sides.
This war has to end. Thousands of people are being killed, and the fact that elected officials are calling for continued US supply of munitions to NATO (and thus to Ukraine) highlights the hypocrisy of the situation.
Our position should first and foremost have been to negotiate peace.
Vladimir Zelensky is intentionally stalling the peace talks.
Luna said Washington should have led discussions to end the war.
