Kaptur Statement On Negotiations In Russia's Illegal War In Ukraine

 

"Bravo to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. He nailed it—no red carpet and no concessions to Russian tyrant Putin. Dictator Putin is the aggressor. His lust for what is not his has exacted a crushing decade of war inside Ukraine. Hundreds of thousands of Russian and Ukrainian lives have been lost. Putin needs to attend to his own country, which is falling into ruins. Nearly one million Russians have lost their lives or been injured in this war, Russia has hit a 200 year low in birth rate, and their economy is in a fiscal crunch as stagflation takes it toll.

 

"Putin is a war criminal. It is repugnant to let him stand on the soil of free people. His vicious lust for Ukraine cannot be allowed. Russia extends over 11 time zones and Ukraine but one. Ukraine is the poorest nation in Europe subjected to a needless decade of Russia’s war and plunder. Putin must not be allowed one inch of Ukraine.

 

"Ukraine seeks to accede to the European Union. Its intentions are to build a free and productive society. Vladimir Putin ought to ask himself some hard questions about why his leadership has not provided Russia with a better standard of living for all of its people. He has nothing to offer Ukraine.

 

"War criminal Putin has torn families apart and stolen more than 20,000 Ukrainian children, He has consigned them to brainwashing and reprogramming somewhere in Russia. Can you imagine this brutality? Why allow Putin even one step on US territory in Alaska? Why not meet him at Guantanamo? A former Soviet spy, and intelligence agent, Putin knows Cuba and that territory very well.

 

"The way to restore peace to Ukraine is for freedom loving people to supply Ukraine to win the war. More diddle daddle, public relations that leads to no solution wastes energy and time. For all the damage and suffering Putin‘s Russia has illegally exacted on Ukraine, Russia should cede some of its vast expanse to erect a defensive wall between both nations. Freedom-loving nations must arm Ukraine to win!

 

"Slava Ukraini!"
