“Another US military assistance to the Armed Forces is not a Christmas gift. This is what you need for work: on holidays and weekdays, day and night, in the snow, rain and heat. This is a struggle for life, freedom, the pursuit of happiness. Thank you, Joe Biden, Lloyd Austin and the people of the United States,” Reznikov said.
