Senator Lankford Urges Action Against Putin's Threat To Ukraine

Russian President Putin meets with servicemen involved in Russia-Ukraine conflict, in Moscow

Senator James Lankford of Oklahoma has expressed grave concerns about the threat posed by Vladimir Putin and his ambitions in Ukraine. Lankford emphasized the importance of pushing back against Putin's aggression and providing Ukraine with the necessary ammunition and weapons to defend itself against Russian forces.

Lankford pointed to historical instances where Putin had annexed territories, such as Georgia and Crimea, and highlighted the risk of Putin attempting to recreate the Soviet Union. He underscored the seriousness of Putin's intentions and the need for a strong response to prevent further aggression.

Furthermore, Lankford addressed concerns about a perceived pro-Putin faction within the Republican Party, stating that he had not encountered any members who supported Putin. He criticized the delay in approving the necessary aid package for Ukraine and warned against isolationist tendencies that could lead to a broader conflict.

Lankford stressed the importance of supporting Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression, emphasizing that a swift resolution to the conflict would benefit not only Ukraine but also the United States by safeguarding American interests and resources.

In conclusion, Lankford called for decisive action to help Ukraine push back against Putin's advances and protect the homeland. He highlighted the upcoming intelligence hearing as an opportunity to further discuss strategies for safeguarding national security.
