Ukraine Aid: Will It Be Enough?
Dara Massicot sits down with Sophia to unpack the war effort in Ukraine.
Published on May 2, 2024
After months of gridlock, Congress passed and President Joe Biden signed the long-awaited foreign aid package into law, which includes $60.8 billion for Ukraine.

What will be the effects on the battlefield? And how are Ukraine, Russia, and Ukraine's allies preparing for what is ahead?
Dara Massicot, a senior fellow in Carnegie's Russia and Eurasia Program, joins Sophia on the show to unpack the war effort in Ukraine.
