Biden-Harris Admin Touts Keeping Power on in Ukraine as 700 Thousand in America Suffer Outages After Hurricane HeleneKristina Wong 5 Oct 2024
Samantha Power, the Biden-Harris administration’s United States Agency for International Development (USAID) administrator, posted a tone-deaf video on Friday explaining “how Americans are helping Ukraine keep the lights and heat on” — as nearly 700,000 American homes and businesses suffer from power outages in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.
“I’m here in an energy substation in the western region of Ukraine. This substation provides enough power for around 500,000 residents of this area,” Power says in the video. “I’m standing in front of an auto transformer that used to provide power, but that Putin’s forces destroyed back in 2022.”
She adds:
As we head into winter, knowing that Putin is intent on attacking critical infrastructure, USAID is doubling our investments in replacing auto transformers that have been damaged or destroyed, and in providing protection to the energy infrastructure that remains. Thanks to the support of the American people, USAID is working with Ukrainians to keep the lights on and the heat going this winter.
