WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Representative Virginia Foxx (R-NC) issued the following statement regarding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine:

“Tyranny must always be met with unyielding justice. Last night, the sovereign nation of Ukraine came under attack without provocation, and the international community was shaken to its very core. The weight of this invasion and unprecedented defiance of standing international agreements falls upon the shoulders of every free nation.

“The next step is abundantly clear: the harshest sanctions imaginable must be leveled against Vladimir Putin and Russia – with no end. They must be brought to their knees. America and its allies across the world will stand together to aid Ukraine and its people from Russia’s scourge of despotism. We must rise to meet this moment.”
