U.S. Lawmakers Criticize White House On Shipment Of Ventilators To Russia

[rpannier]

U.S. congressional lawmakers have complained to the White House about the shipment of dozens of U.S.-built ventilators to Russia, saying the move was done without justification and could potentially deprive coronavirus-infected Americans of treatment.

The May 22 letter, signed by five Democratic lawmakers in the House of Representatives, was the latest development in the ongoing story of how and why medical supplies were shipped by Russia to the United States, and the reciprocal gesture made to Russia by the U.S. administration this week.

The State Department announced that around 200 ventilators, valued at around $5.6 million, were being sent to Russia in what was described as a "humanitarian donation." A military plane carrying the items arrived in Moscow on May 21.

1. But Trump is demanding Putin hold free and fair elections right? And of course that he cease

interfering in ours.

2. Par for the course, the Trump Course, of course.

Another demand from Vlad, perhaps?
