James E. Risch: “Russia under Putin is an autocratic and imperialistic regime and poses an acute threat to the freedom and stability.”

When I did REPO, which you referred to, my biggest enemy was not Democrats. My biggest enemy was the Administration.

What is happening there today, as we speak, on the ground is unacceptable what the current authorities are doing against the people of Georgia.

I agree with that, and one of the other ones we really needed to turn the screw on is on the Russians.

I think it is incumbent upon us as we go forward to do that, and I commit to you that we will continue to pursue that.
