Congresswoman Victoria Spartz (R-Ind.-05) issued the following statement on Monday, the third anniversary of the Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine:
“My heart goes out to the brave Ukrainian soldiers and their families who sacrificed so much. Thanks to your courage – despite your worthless government, Putin was not able to take over Ukraine and move further into Europe.
“Even if you do not get much appreciation and recognition from your current government now – on the contrary, politicly-motivated prosecutions, future generations of Ukrainians will remember and cherish your sacrifice for their freedoms. You saved Ukraine and Europe from destruction with your blood, bravery and the ultimate sacrifice! Unfortunately, it’s hard to win a war without strong and capable leaders, but you won some very tough battles, so the war is not completely lost yet.
“I would also like to express my deepest appreciation to my fellow Americans who have helped the Ukrainian people and others around the world – with blood and money. President Trump is the right leader to stop this war for now, so the Ukrainian people might have a chance to ultimately win the war and peace in the future.”
So she is convinced that pulling U.S. aid and bending the knee to Putin will lead to a better life for the Ukrainian people?
Yes Jeramy! Our money taken from us by threat of force, IRS, should not be used to fund killing young people on both sides indefinitely. STOP KILLING and start negotiating. UKRAINE CAN’T WIN A RUSSIAN WAR. Spartz knows it and I appreciate her trying to stop the killing.
I would just say that this is still a relatively free country so, anyone who wants to bow down before the Russian dictator, certainly has the right to do that. No argument from me.
I agree with Victoria and Lawrence.
