Burchett (R-TN-2) 01/25/2022: Twitter thread – “Vladimir Putin's goal to bring back the Soviet Union starts in Ukraine. NATO needs to respond to his aggression by providing Ukraine with enough military resources to defend itself. I do not want any American troops to die fighting in Ukraine if Russia invades. The Biden administration's disastrous foreign policy emboldened Putin. After allowing construction to resume on Putin's Nord Stream 2 pipeline, failing to nominate a U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine and the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, Putin sensed weakness and moved on Ukraine. NATO members, like Germany, need to do more to counter Russian aggression. Chancellor Scholz must immediately shut down the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. Relying on Russian natural gas gives Putin influence over Europe and its a mistake to reward his current behavior.”
