NEW YORK (77WABC) — The New York State Republican Convention is underway on Long Island, where the GOP has attacked President Joe Biden’s Democratic administration over its response to the invasion of Ukraine by Russia.

“We have a weak president who has failed to defend our allies at times of desperate need,” claimed former New York Gov. George Pataki during remarks at the Garden City Hotel in Nassau County.

Pataki’s remarks came just a day after the White House and Western allies announced a slew of punishing sanctions that have crippled Russia’s banking sector, crashed its currency and chopped off virtually all air service. The Biden Administration also expelled 12 Russian representatives at the United Nations on Monday.

Republicans return for the second and final day of the Republican state convention today. The GOP will officially nominate the party’s picks for Governor and Lieutenant Governor.

Ukrainian born New York City councilwoman Inna Vernikof is slotted for a top speaking slot during today’s program.
