Cotton Responds to President Biden’s Russia Sanctions
Washington, D.C. – Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) issued the following statement after Vladimir Putin ordered troops to move into Ukrainian territory:
“President Biden’s timid sanctions tonight are wholly unequal to this moment. Russia is invading Ukraine now. The time has come for the ‘swift and severe’ sanctions that Joe Biden has long threatened but refused to impose. There is not a minute to lose.”
