Virginia Democratic Senator Tim Kaine said he s troubled by the Biden administration not calling for an immediate cease-fire between Israelis and Palestinians, saying he will continue to do so in the Senate regardless of the president s approach.
Kaine, who sits on the U.S. Senate Armed Services and Foreign Relations committees, criticized the country s decision to veto United Nations Security Council resolutions calling for a cease-fire across Gaza. The former 2016 Democratic vice presidential nominee was pressed by MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell Tuesday to explain why President Joe Biden hasn t pushed for an immediate cease-fire amid growing civilian casualties.
