Kay Bailey Hutchison: “I will also say, while talking about the impetus that we have--Barbara Mikulski has been a champion.”

That is something that has to be, from the NATO standpoint, a consensus. Some of our allies are concerned that a withdrawal would make Russia more aggressive.

Absolutely. We should reinforce our efforts to get Russia to comply with the treaty, and it is the position of the American Defense Department, State Department, that Russia is in violation.

It is one of NATO's prime focuses, the aggression of Russia in Ukraine, of course, Georgia as well.

I agree with the President's effort to extract more from our allies in support of NATO.
