U.S. Lt-Gen. Michael Flynn has called for America to withdraw from the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, citing a staggering toll of over 1.5 million lives lost during the past three years. His comments come as world leaders convene at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit, where Flynn criticized the U.S. approach to the war and expressed concern about potential escalation.
Flynn expressed frustration over what he described as ineffective geopolitical strategies pushed by "brilliant NEOCON and Geopolitical advisors." He warned that the current trajectory could lead the U.S. into a war that is both unnecessary and unaffordable, urging European leaders to take responsibility for the situation. "If the European Union wants this mess, let them have it," he stated in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
The remarks highlight a growing division within U.S. political circles regarding involvement in Ukraine, especially as the conflict continues to escalate. As previously reported, the SCO summit has seen significant discussions on international relations, particularly between member countries like India and China, who are strengthening their ties amidst U.S. sanctions.
With mounting casualties and economic strains, Flynn"s call for a reevaluation of U.S. involvement resonates with a segment of the American public. As the situation unfolds, the implications of these comments may influence future U.S. foreign policy decisions regarding Ukraine and broader international engagements.
