Senator Baldwin’s Statement on Putin’s Attacks on Ukraine
WISCONSIN – Today, U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin released the following statement after Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine:
“Putin has violated international law, invading a sovereign and democratic nation that wants peace and independence. Putin’s aggression has been met with sanctions, and his violent attack against Ukraine should be met with stronger sanctions, including a full set of punishing financial, technology, and military sanctions. I stand with the Ukrainian people and I believe we need to continue standing strong with our European allies and NATO by providing them the support they need to hold Putin accountable for the largest invasion of Europe since World War II.”

Dear Tammy Baldwin,
Joe Biden and Barack Obama staged an illegal coup of the Ukraine government in 2014. Then they installed a U.S. controlled, anti-Russian, puppet government. Biden and Obama gave billions upon billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars and weapons to this illegal government. They have killed over 14,000 Russian speaking people in Ukraine, near the Russian border, since 2014. President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine last week because Joe Biden continued to send American nuclear capable missiles to Ukraine, aiming them at Russia.
We gave you the power to stand up against the war mongers on Capitol Hill, Tammy, but it appears as though you’ve become a willing participant and a propagandist for never ending wars. We need to replace Senator Ron Johnson, Tammy, but I’m afraid it’s time for you to leave, as well.
