That's the message from U.S.
Senator Mitch McConnell after his return from a foreign trip to Europe and the Middle East.
On the Senate floor, Senator McConnell said by helping Ukraine, the U.S. benefits in more ways than one.
Much of the money that's being described as American aid to Ukraine is actually being invested in our own defense industrial base here at home.
We're procuring new versions of munitions and weapons for our own military to replace often decades old versions that we've sent over to Ukraine.
And after an ill advised holiday from history, European allies are now following America's lead.
No doubt members are making historic investments in defense that will keep paying dividends long after Ukraine defeats Putin's aggression.
Since the war started about a year ago, McConnell has argued U.S. aid to Ukraine is a fraction of what it would cost if Russia won the war.
