"Vladimir Putin is a war criminal and a dictator and despot."
"I believe we need to enact secondary sanctions on Russia and those that do business with Russia, and I think, frankly, Europe needs to step up to the plate and cut off Russian gas. The fact is, Vladimir Putin continues to act in an aggressive posture in Ukraine, and his continued unwillingness to actually negotiate a cease-fire, from my vantage point, requires Congress to act, and I think it's time to pass the sanctions legislation."
"Earlier this month, Trump announced that he was establishing a Board of Peace in order to oversee Gaza as it transitions from conflict to peace and development. His plan for the organization has been criticized for its unusual ongoing role for Trump, a whopping $1 billion fee it demands from permanent members, and other issues."
Rep. Mike Lawler criticized President Donald Trump for inviting Vladimir Putin to join a proposed Board of Peace to oversee Gaza. Lawler labeled Putin a war criminal, dictator, and despot and urged enactment of secondary sanctions on Russia and entities doing business with it. Lawler called on Europe to cut off Russian gas and said Congress should pass sanctions legislation. The Board of Peace plan demands $1 billion from permanent members, has an unusual ongoing role for Trump, and has been rejected by several leaders, while Canada accepted the invitation but declined to pay the fee.
