On Sunday, Rep. Michael McCaul (R-TX) appeared on ABC’s “This Week” with host Martha Raddatz. During a segment regarding escalating Russia/Ukraine tensions, Raddatz asked McCaul what a Russian invasion of Ukraine would mean for Americans.

After stating that the Nord Stream 2 sanctions “that we passed” and “were waived by this president … laid the predicate for this,” the representative added that the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan was also a “key moment” in which Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping saw weakness.

McCaul later explained that if Putin can invade Ukraine, it essentially gives a green light for Xi to “take Taiwan.”
