The United States should continue the policy of sanctions against Russia while she does not withdraw its troops from Ukraine and Georgia. This was at a conference at the Center for strategic and international studies, said the Republican Senator from Arkansas, Tom cotton is a member of the armed services Committee of the U.S. Senate. According to him, due to the Russian presence, Ukraine and Georgia can not be declared on the path of NATO membership.
“At the moment, Ukraine and Georgia can not get on the path to joining NATO, while on their territory are Russian troops. Therefore, our immediate primary goal should be to increase the pressure on Russia so that it has forsaken these lands. So she gave Crimea to Ukraine and leave the Eastern Ukraine and Northern Georgia. The Secretary of state Tillerson during a bilateral meeting in Hamburg has made a clear statement that sanctions against Russia, no matter how moderate they may be, will remain in force until the Russian troops and they have supported the militants will be on UK cue of the earth, ” – said U.S. Senator.
T. cotton added that pressure on Russia should be extended not only because of its aggression against neighboring States, and because its attempts to destabilize the Western world.
Recall, the colleague of cotton, Republican Senator John McCain said that the U.S. Congress should take a hard bill to strengthen sanctions against Russia.
