Republican debate live updates and analysis: 8 candidates are facing off

Haley, as a former ambassador, made an impassioned case for the U.S. continuing military and financial aid to Ukraine amid Russia’s invasion.

“When you look at the situation, you have a pro-American country that was invaded by a thug,” she said. “You want to talk about what has been given to Ukraine, less than 3.5% of our defense budget has been given to Ukraine. If you look at the percentage per GDP, 11 of the European countries have given more than the U.S.”

She was interrupted by Ramaswamy, who is opposed to further assistance, and the two had a fiery back-and-forth.

Haley told the political newcomer: “You have no foreign policy experience and it shows.”

On Ramaswamy’s approach to Putin, Haley said: “This guy is a murderer and you are choosing a murderer.”
