The US House of Representatives has overwhelmingly approved a document which strongly condemns Moscow's actions against its neighbors, calling them a policy of aggression.
Passed with 411-10 votes, the resolution slams Russia’s “continuing political, economic, and military aggression” against Ukraine, Georgia, and Moldova and the “continuing violation of their sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity.”
"The US, Europe and our allies must aggressively keep the pressure on Mr. Putin to encourage him to change his behavior," Rep. Adam Kinzinger, the resolution's sponsor, said.
The resolution calls for Russia to stop supporting local militias in eastern Ukraine and for the cancellation of Crimea’s decision to join Russia. In addition, it calls on Moscow to withdraw its troops which the US claims are in Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova.
The House calls on President Barack Obama to provide Ukraine with defense equipment and training.
"Ukraine is clearly in need of urgent military assistance," Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen said as quoted by The Hill.
The resolution also urges NATO members and US allies to suspend military cooperation with Russia. Addressing Obama, the House urged to review the readiness of the US and NATO armed forces under the Conventional Armed Forces in Europe Treaty (CFE).
The lawmakers agreed that the President and the Department of State should also find a way to “distribute news and information” in Russian to countries with Russian-speaking populations.
The lawmakers specified that the resolution targets Putin and his policy, but not all Russian people.

ReplyDeleteDoes anyone else in the world get to vote on America's aggression against Sovereign states, its overthrow of elected Governments, its killing of innocent civilians by Drone strikes [collateral damage] and its manufactured wars, the arming of "rebels" who then turn against them, spying on the entire world, bailing out Bankers and Wall street criminals, holding the world to ransom with its petro dollar, printing monopoly money and having debt it can never pay back?Just a thought.
