Turner on INF Withdrawal
Statement
Issues: National Security
"I strongly support the decision to formally withdraw from this failed one-sided treaty. For years Russia has flagrantly and deliberately violated the INF Treaty by developing, testing, and fielding intermediate range cruise and ballistic missiles. The Obama Administration refused to recognize the reality of Russia's actions, leaving us to comply with a treaty while our highly aggressive adversary violates it. Without verifiable compliance, the INF erodes global security and the goodwill it once signified. I look forward to working with the Administration to hold Russia accountable."
