Ukraine’s president was ‘truthful, speaking from the heart,’ Fox News contributor Kiron Skinner says.<\/p>\n
Rep. Mike Garcia, R-Calif., says President Biden’s comments describing what he will or won’t do in Ukraine could put the U.S. at a disadvantage.<\/p>\n
“A good strategist will never disclose what he will or will not do in advance of combat,” Garcia, a former Navy pilot, told Fox News Digital. He noted that Biden previously told reporters that he gave Putin a list of 16 U.S. entities that are “off limits” for a Russian cyberattack in June.<\/p>\n
