Political Quotes

“This weekend, I had the honor of going to Kyiv, Ukraine, with the chairman of the Helsinki Commission, Joe Wilson. I am the ranking member. Our commission is responsible for the security and cooperation of governments in Europe. The sovereign country of Ukraine is threatened in every part of the Helsinki Accords which created our organization. All violations were committed by Russia, which is a member of the group but not a participating member in terms of following its precepts. The Ukrainian people are courageous and show great valor. They have defeated the Russians in every military aspect that exists except for airpower. The Russians have the sky. Our allies and our country must do all we can to get Ukraine sufficient additional weapons to protect the skies, to protect their soldiers, to protect democracy, to protect freedom, and to protect the rule of law in that country and in the rest of Europe because Putin will not stop at Ukraine. ``Slava Ukraini.'' ``Glory to Ukraine.'' ____________________”
