Putin's miscalculated decision to launch a full scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 upended the world but not in the way that he thought it would.

I want to praise the effort of Members of Congress to get out there and deliver the message that on a bipartisan matter long time friends of Georgia believe this is the wrong path.

It is clear to all of us that the future of Europe... depends upon Ukraine's success against Russia's invasion.

Earlier this year Congress passed the $95 billion national security supplemental--$95 billion-plus. It passed with strong bipartisan support, and much of the funding is critical to supporting Ukraine to defend itself.

I think anything that we can do to encourage him to behave in a way that is more helpful to the central government and the people of the country would be positive.

we cannot get our ambassadors approved, even the career ambassadors

we are facing the most dangerous global environment at any time since World War II

I personally believe we should allow Ukraine to conduct the war in the manner that they see fit with our weapons.

Instead, it upended European policy toward Russia and its attitudes toward the rest of the world.

So as just one example in Germany... a majority of that money likely will go for munitions.

I think anything that we can do to encourage him to behave in a way that is more helpful to the central government and the people of the country would be positive.

I think it is really important that we are clear, and I think we have been. In Congress there is bipartisan opposition to what is happening in Georgia.

It is not only those who benefited from corruption, but those who are involved in violations of human rights as under the Global Magnitsky Act.

That is why I introduced the BOLSTER Act with Senator Shaheen, which aims to increase the coordination with the EU and European countries on sanctions in various Taiwan contingencies.

And today the transatlantic alliance is stronger than ever.

We have seen Russia's aggression, and we are drawing a line right now in Ukraine as we should.

Earlier this year Congress passed the $95 billion national security supplemental--$95 billion-plus. It passed with strong bipartisan support, and much of the funding is critical to supporting Ukraine to defend itself.

I think $30 billion was dedicated to buy things made in the U.S.
