On Thursday, members of Congress demanded further punishment against Russia for allowing voting in the Ukraine after the “duly elected” violent coup government demanded that there should be no such thing.
“Despite the warnings issued and sanctions imposed by the U.S. and our allies, Russia continues its aggression against Ukraine,” said Rep. Ed Royce of California, the Republican chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee in his prepared opening remarks.
Despite a weakening Russian economy due to U.S. and European sanctions over Ukraine, the situation remains “a crisis, with violence intensifying,” Royce said.
The violence and Western sanctions have caused $63.7 billion in capital to flee the country in the first quarter, the committee said. The Russian stock market has lost 25% of its value and the World Bank has warned that Russia’s growth rate could become negative in the coming year.
Yet, Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that “the cost is bearable,” Royce said.
“We must stop reacting to Putin’s moves, while waiting patiently for the Europeans to join us,” Royce said. “Instead, we must adopt a proactive strategy that will convince Putin that his aggression will have a significant and lasting cost to the Russian economy.”
Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va., described armed clashes in the streets between pro-Russian militants and Ukrainian security forces, the shoot-down of three military helicopters and a pending sovereignty referendum scheduled for May 11.
“The situation in Ukraine has taken a grave turn for the worse in recent days,” Connolly said. And despite the protestations of Putin that he’s lost control over the separatists, Russia bears responsibility for what’s happening, Connolly said.
“The Russian president cannot reasonably expect the world to divorce Russian intervention from the violence we are seeing in Ukraine,” Connolly said.
Rep. Eliot Engel of New Jersey, the ranking Democrat on the committee, agreed that the United States needs to back Ukraine more strongly.
“The people of Ukraine are looking to us for support,” he said. “We need to have their back. President Putin has to understand that his actions will have consequences. If Russia continues to increase pressure on Ukraine we need to ratchet up sanctions further.”
This is one of the most blatant ever instances of the Jews clearly running the American government against the will and interests of the American people. Virtually no Americans care about defending the coup government of the Ukraine, and yet our government continues to pretend as though this is the most important thing ever in history.
Because the Jews told them to.
