BISMARCK – U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND), member of the Senate Armed Services Committee and bipartisan Senate Ukraine Caucus, issued the following statement in response to Vladimir Putin’s apparent declaration of war:
“It’s crystal clear Vladimir Putin harbors fantasies of reuniting the Soviet Union, and now he’s translated this fantasy into action. He has absolutely no right to invade Ukraine’s sovereign borders and impose Russia’s will on the freedom-loving people of Ukraine. The United States fiercely condemns this violent action and stands strongly in support of Ukraine,” said Senator Cramer. “We needed sanctions months ago to ward off exactly this type of action. Now that Putin has taken these steps we must implement strong, primary and secondary sanctions immediately. Our response here is greater than Russia and Ukraine; what we choose to do will also send a message to China on Taiwan.”
