Jeanne Shaheen: “I would also argue it is in our national security interests not to have a Vladimir Putin who feels free to go into any…”

The fact is, again, the president is looking for a scapegoat because he's in trouble with the American people because he's not done what he promised to do.

So there's bipartisan support for Ukraine. And hopefully our Republican colleagues, if they take a shellacking in November, will be willing to stand up to the president.

There is not. And what the president continues to deny is that the only way to get Vladimir Putin to come to the table and seriously negotiate on Ukraine is for the United States and Europe to continue to put pressure on him.

On this visit, Senator Durbin and I will meet with officials, young leaders and civil society representatives to discuss security, economic opportunity and their countries’ relationships with the United States.
