Newsmax: McFarland Claims Biden’s Fossil Fuel Policy Inflaming Russia-Ukraine Conflict

Russia is able to fund its war against Ukraine using oil sales, regardless of the conflict’s duration, thanks to high energy prices provoked by President Joe Biden’s anti-fossil fuels policies, K.T. McFarland told Newsmax on Monday.

McFarland, who served as deputy national security adviser in the Trump administration, shared during “Wake Up America” that in a war of attrition, “Russia has almost limitless capacity to deploy troops and purchase ammunition from other nations as needed, while Ukraine relies on support from its allies, especially the United States, to sustain its fight.”

She emphasized that in a prolonged conflict, a wealthier and more populous country like Russia will inevitably prevail, making it clear that Ukraine is unlikely to emerge victorious regardless of the circumstances.

McFarland emphasized the importance of both sides coming to the negotiation table promptly to cease hostilities and rebuild Ukraine with aid from Western nations.

Regarding the sanctions imposed by the Biden administration on Russia following the death of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, McFarland downplayed their effectiveness, asserting that only a significant drop in energy prices would halt Russia’s aggression.

She mentioned former President Donald Trump’s commitment, if re-elected, to increase oil drilling, which would drastically reduce oil prices and compel both parties to negotiate. Trump would use the leverage of offering offensive weapons to Ukraine if Putin refuses talks, while also threatening to cut off arms supplies if Kyiv resists negotiations.
