Burchett responds to Russian invasion of Eastern Ukraine, Biden sanctions
Press Release
Issues: Foreign Affairs
Today, U.S. Representative Tim Burchett (TN-02), a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, released the following statement in response to the Russian Federation's invasion of Eastern Ukraine:
"The disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan and other foreign policy debacles gave Vladimir Putin the green light to invade Ukraine's Donbas region. In response, President Biden is predictably continuing to project weakness by imposing ineffective financial sanctions against Russian oligarchs and minor banks. The Biden administration should instead hit Russia's economy where it actually hurts by reversing its woke fossil fuels agenda and becoming an energy exporter to European markets."
