Congressman Wittman Statement On Decision To End Missile Defense Shield In Eastern Europe

Statement

Date: Sept. 17, 2009
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Defense

"I am extremely concerned with the Administration's decision to end our commitment to a robust missile defense program in Eastern Europe. The termination of our programs overseas not only affects our relationships with our allies, but also sends the wrong message to the emerging nuclear threats across the globe. I remain committed to ensuring the continuation of our missile defense programs and honoring our obligations overseas", said Wittman.
