KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — The head of the U.S. House Intelligence Committee says there is “overwhelming” support in the United States to continue supplying aid to Ukraine in its fight against Russia, despite vocal opposition from a hard-right faction of his own Republican Party. Rep. Michael Turner is the Republican chairman of the committee, which serves as the House’s main body for overseeing American intelligence organizations. He spoke Monday alongside three other GOP congressmen during a brief visit to Kyiv.
