I wish to start by thanking the Senator from Wyoming for his comments this morning. I think they are right on the mark. Throughout world history we have tried the appeasement of those who would seek to use their power to bully other people into submission, and I worry the President is taking a naive approach here and unilaterally disarming the United States in the face of a rising threat from Russia and other parts around the world. So I thank the Senator for his very important comments on a very important topic. ____________________
